   On my site I have a rewrite which directs the homepage to a specific post but I would like to get rid of the comment stuff at the bottom
   Is there anyway to do something like:
   http://www.example.com/post?p=9&nocomments
   ?

   can't you just go back in admin panel to the post, then click edit... and uncheck the "allow comments" box?

   I don't want to disallow comments though- I only want to not display the comment form and data in certain instances

   Or even if I can set it so that when viewing individual posts it displays a link to display the comment form

   I got it-
   Added an if/else statement which matches the post I don't want to display the comments on- then I modified the wp-comments-popup.php file so when 'leave a comment' is clicked it loads what you would normally see on an individual entry
   <?php
if ($id != 9) :
include(ABSPATH . 'wp-comments.php'); ?>
<?php else: ?>
<div class="feedback">Leave a Comment</div>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>

   Scrapped the if/else statement and just made every entry have a 'leave a comment' link which points to the comment page
