    I want everything turned of I am trying to use WP as a CMS Look at site here so far so good but I don't want users to even see comment or posting boxes any ware its not needed. I want to accomplish this in the theme if possible so no hard coding the core if possible

    Disable comments and pings on the Options->Discussion page, and turn off "Allow Comments" and "Allow Pings" on all the posts you've already made.

    You must still have "Allow comments" turned on for that particular post, because it let me post a comment.

    Individual posts can have comments turned on or off. The Options->Discussion settings just allows you to set what the default settings are.

    Turn off "Allow Comments" and "Allow Pings" on all the posts you've already made. Go to Manage->Posts. Edit the post. On the right hand side, there's Allow Comments and Allow Pings. Turn those off for *every post*.

    Sorry for the double post. But just for clarity, when I say php file, I'm talking about the file I have to edit to remove "Posted in Uncategorized | Edit | Comments Off" as I am having the same problems as deonya.
