You will need to start customising your theme’s template files via a child theme.

Trying to customise via child theme.

Created child theme: public_html/wp-content/themes/twenty-twelve-child1/style.css

The folder is located directly under ‘theme’

Dashboard, Manage themes message is:

Broken Themes

The following themes are installed but incomplete. Themes must have a stylesheet and a template.

Name Description
Template is missing.

What code is in the child theme style.css file? It should be only a short section at the top.

Hello again WPyogi, thank you.

I realize this is the step that I’m missing. After physically creating the file called ‘style.css’, I haven’t done anything else, such as enter code. I see the code I need to enter, to be copied right from the help section of wordpress. org. I simply don’t know ‘where’ to enter it.

Just copy/paste this code in that file – you need to create that file on your local computer using a plain text editor –

/*
 Theme Name:     Twenty Twelve Child
 Template:       twentytwelve
 Version:        1.0.0
*/

@import url("../twentytwelve/style.css");

/* =Theme customization starts here
-------------------------------------------------------------- */

Thank you. I have installed the child theme successfully.

Back to the reason for my initial post, and the reason I created the child theme as recommended by esmi, how do I remove the ‘leave a reply’ before my posts?

Cool! Can you link to a page where that shows up?

Yes, very cool, thank you.

the ‘leave a reply’ comment was showing in the preview of a post i drafted. I have just published it for you to see it easily at https://www.bonnetsinwonderland.com

I published it, knowing that I can easily edit it. I have to add the comment plug in still anyways.

Thank you so much for your help!

Try adding this to the new style.css file:

.entry-header .comments-link {
    display: none;
}

Ah, that worked! You’re a star! Thank you:)
