Comments Off, Comments are closed.

Hello.

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

Also, 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 hope that helps!

Hi,
I edited the files you mentioned.
The code you mentioned in index.php did not exist.
I could not find 4 occurrences in the loop.php file.
The problem persists.
Need additional help. Thank you.

Hmmmm. Let me do some more digging. I could try installing your theme. Which is it?

What theme are you using? Where did you download it from?

Hi,
I installed the Adventure Journal theme from the WordPress website. I was able to edit the template-one-col.php to eliminate the words Comments Off and Comments are closed.

Changes to template-one-col.php
<?php /*
* The following code is being eliminated to remove the phrase, “Comments Off”, on the page.
<div class=”feedback”><?php wp_link_pages( array( ‘before’ => ‘<div class=”page-link”>’ . __( ‘Pages:’, ‘adventurejournal’ ), ‘after’ => ‘</div>’ ) ); ?>
<?php comments_popup_link(__(‘Comments (0)’), __(‘Comments (1)’), __(‘Comments (%)’)); ?></div>
*/ ?>

To be honest, I do not have the knowledge to be making changes in a php file. It would be better if I could control visibility without editing any php file.

Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated.
