    If I click on Settings on the Dashboard, it gives me many choices … of which one is Discussion. When I click that, I am in the Discussion Settings page. However, there is no screen option at the top of the Discussion Settings page. Am I in the right page?

    And will this remove the Leave a Reply / Post Comment box from the other pages of my site?

    Hello WordPress Forum and especially Esmi,

    I appreciate your advice and I am trying my best to follow it. However, I am still unable to take off the Leave a Reply and Post a Comment box on all of the pages other than the home page. I went through both a CSS tutorial and an HTML tutorial to follow your advice but to no avail.

    1. In the Child Theme for Twentyevelen Theme (www.zuub.ca), what is the EXACT code that I would write to remove the Leave a Reply and Post a Comment Box? Or what is the process for getting the code from the Parent Theme and transfering + modifying it on the Child Theme to accomplish this?

    2. As for the “more simple” solution, I did what I could but there is a problem. In the Discussion Settings, I unticked “Allow people to post comments on new articles”. And in the Screen Options for each page, I unticked “Discussion” too. But I could not find the “Allow Comments” in the Discussion Pane … is that for an older version? I do not have a Discussion pane to the best of my knowledge.

    Thank you again so much for your help.
    Avery

    Wow! I never knew I would be looking at code to make a WordPress site … this is getting confusing.

    1. I am using Chrome Dev Tools as I use Chrome as my browser. Is that okay instead of Firebug?

    2. I can locate the code for one of the lines I want to remove but I don’t know how to remove them in my child theme. For instance, here is the code for the Leave a Reply that Chrome Dev Tools gives me:

    <h3 id="reply-title">
"Leave a Reply "

    How do I take that out in my child theme? What is the code that I will write on the child theme to get that out?

    3. Is there a faster way to remove the entire Leave a Reply box (including Logged in as admin. Log out?, Comment and Post a Comment)? I just want it to be static and not be a blog site. Or do I have to take out each element individually? I hope not … this is getting tiring.

    Thanks again for all of your help!!!!

    I did activate the child theme and it works great. Thanks!

    Two more questions:

    1. How can I mark that line so that I know what it refers to later if I keep making more changes?

    2. If I want to take out the Leave a Reply and Post a Comment on the other pages of my site, will I just put that onto the child theme as well? Do you know the code to remove those items and make the other pages into static pages?

    Thanks again!!!!

    I wrote this into my child theme to make the child theme and then to take out the posted on, by admin, posted in and leave a comment … did I do it right? Is there a better way of doing this? (By the way, I put the code below in between the barticks like I was told to do … is that right as well?) Finally, is there a way to mark the line which takes out the posted by, etc. so that I can remember that later if my child them gets too long – like in parentheses or something? Thank you so much for your help!!!! I really appreciate it!!!

    By some miracle of the 5th dimension, I was able to create a child theme (for anyone reading this, I used this video – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTXVQz8x4lY- which was very helpful).

    So what is my next step esmi Theme Diva???

    Well I used twenty ten when the advice was for twenty ten and the same for twenty eleven. I figured I can’t be choosy if I don’t know how to code so I would take the most basic theme. What do you suggest?
