 * I am not using comments on this site:
    [http://plmbar.com/wp/](http://plmbar.com/wp/)
 * How do I remove the “comments off” text that appears below a post title after
   the date, and also at the end of the post?
 * This site uses the Coraline 1.0.2 theme.
 * Thank you.

 * You should have a comments_popup_link in your index.php, you can remove the call,
   and in single.php and possible page.php remove the comments_template call

 * There is no comments_popup_link in the index.php
 *     ```
       <div id="content-container">
                   <div id="content" role="main">
   
                   <?php get_template_part( 'loop', 'index' ); ?>
                   </div><!-- #content -->
               </div><!-- #content-container -->
       ```
   
 * I did find this in the loop.php:
 *     ```
       </div><!-- .entry-content -->
   
                   <div class="entry-info">
                       <span class="comments-link"><?php comments_popup_link( __( '&rarr; Leave a comment', 'coraline' ), __( '&rarr; 1 Comment', 'coraline' ), __( '&rarr; % Comments', 'coraline' ) ); ?></span>
       ```
   
 * What portion of this code should be removed?

 * As I’m not familiar with the theme, I can’t be totally sure which portions affect
   the layout. Start by just commenting out the span, like this:
 *     ```
       <!-- <span class="comments-link"><?php comments_popup_link( __( '&rarr; Leave a comment', 'coraline' ), __( '&rarr; 1 Comment', 'coraline' ), __( '&rarr; % Comments', 'coraline' ) ); ?></span> -->
       ```
   
 * See if that messes up your layout any

 * RESOLVED:
    By removing this code 4 times from the loop.php file the “comments
   off” text was deleted:
 * `<span class="comments-link"><?php comments_popup_link( __( '→ Leave a comment','
   coraline' ), __( '→ 1 Comment', 'coraline' ), __( '→ % Comments', 'coraline' ));?
   ></span>`

 * I tried removing individual lines, but it only worked after taking out all for
   instances.
 * Thanks for your help.
