Remove Leave a Reply etc.

without knowing the theme…
normally the code you are looking for is in theme’s index.php

In single.php, there should be a line of code that refers to comments_template()

Comment this out or delete it.

commenting out the comments template does not do away with the “leave a reply”, etc.

Though I do appreciate the help here I’m confused. Two people are telling me two different things.
What does “comment this out” mean?
If I’m looking in the index.php, what am I looking for?
When you say “without knowing the theme…” is there any way I give you more info to get me further along?

And if these questions weren’t enough – how do I remove the date, category and no comments yet? https://www.teentourtheatre.com/?p=15

Sorry for the newbie questions but I’m really trying hard here….

I’m sorry, but I don’t see how comments_template cannot refer to the “Leave a reply” part of the template. A theme will generally call comments_template in the comments.php file of the theme. This function calls the comment_form function in wp-includes. Which, unless I’m overlooking something, builds all the “Leave a reply” stuff.

slinky005, do you have a loop-single.php file, or a single.php file?

Not sure if this will help but here it is: https://themeforest.net/item/kinetic-html-portfolio-and-business-site/full_screen_preview/106059

slinky005, do you have a loop-single.php file, or a single.php file?

Yes I have a single.php

Here’s the all of them:

404 Template
Comments
Contact_Page Page Template
Footer
Header
Home_Page Page Template
Main Index Template
Page Template
Portfolio_Page Page Template
Search Form
Sidebar
Single Post
Theme Functions
breadcrumbs.php
style .css

Can you paste the contents to https://wordpress.pastebin.com/ and supply a link, for the single.php file?

Contents pasted.
Why supply a link?

I can’t see the code without knowing where to look ??

I mean, a link to the code you pasted.

Thanks so much.

What happens if you delete lines 45-47?

No change.

try deleting the same php code from the page template?
