    Hello, so I am building this site for my dad, I know html/css but I am pretty new to wordpress. Anyway, I foudn my way around to have a non-blog theme set up and I am having problems with a little detail.

    http://noahinternational.com/

    If you can see, at the bottom part of the “post” this is written:

    “Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
    Edit Post”

    How can I get rid of it? My goal is to make this a non-blog site and that is the only thing that is bothering me right now.

    Help is greatly appreciated!

  • Take a look in the comments.php file located in the wp-creativix theme folder. Around line 29 or 30 you should see this:

    <!-- If comments are closed. -->
    <p><?php _e('Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.'); ?></p>

    Try commenting out line 30. Change it to this:

    <!-- <p><?php _e('Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.'); ?></p> -->

    …and save the changes. See if that takes care of it. Please make a backup first, just in case.

    You could also just remove everything between the single quotation marks – Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time. – if you prefer.

    Thank you, I will try that!

    It worked, thank you!

    There’s something else though, the “Edit Post” word is still there.
    I tried to go to singlepost.php and found:

    <?php edit_post_link(‘Edit Post’); ?>
    <?php endwhile; endif;?>

    I thought I could just delete the ‘Edit Post’ Part but it doesn’t remove the “Edit Post” at the bottom of the website.

    how can I remove this?

    Please can someone help me with this? I’ve been trying to find the answer and I am not being very successful

    You’re halfway there!

    Comment out line 34 in single.php, and also line 20 in page.php.

    <!-- <?php edit_post_link('Edit Post'); ?> -->

    I think that should do it.

    AhhH! Thanks!

    You’re welcome.

    I think the “Edit Post” appears if you are logged in — it will not appear to other users. Try to log out then check the site again if it still shows up.

    That is also true!

    🙂
