  Hey there,

  Thank you for your question. I’d be happy to help.

  I would do this with some CSS:

  .page-id-2 #comments, .page-id-2 #comments-reply {
  display: none;
  }

  Hope this helps!

  Kind Regards

  For my other 3 pages do I cut and past this CSS with the number 2 replaced by 1, 3, and 4? (I tried this and it appears to have removed the comments on the Copyright and Legal notices page (the footer page) but not the “About” and “Our Team” pages…very confused by why this wouldn’t change all of them the same way?)

  And, how do I remove comments from posts? I have comments disabled in my Settings/Discussion – but some posts have comments enabled despite this…how do I turn off comments (and remove the “comments closed” line) on existing posts? Will all future posts not have comments now that I have the Settings/Discussion set to not enable comments on posts?

  Figured it out – was able to remove comments on both pages and posts via the Quickedit functionality for both complete lists.

  Resolved – thanks for your help!

  Actually – not quite resolved I still have a “comments closed” appearing on posts – how do I remove this reference to comments entirely?

  The comments seem to have entirely disappeared from the pages now…not sure what changed there!

  Hey again,

  If you’d like it everywhere try this:

  #comments, #comments-reply {
  display: none;
  }

  Thanks!
