   Title: Is there a way to completely remove the "Comments" part of a page?

   It does not look very impressive with "POSTED BY x AT 10:35 PM" on a page called "About" or "Portfolio" for an example which I want to be static.

   Thanks in advance.

   Yes,
   You can edit a page, and near the bottom uncheck "allow comments", and save.

   You can also delete any comments. Finally, under Settings/Discussion you can set up other aspects of commenting.

   That may not do it, depending on the theme. @yeve should edit their theme files, such as page.php and single.php and completely remove the comments template link that will look something like this:

   <?php comments_template( '', true ); ?>

   Make a copy of theme files beforehand. Either remove the link or enclose it in <!-- and --> tags to comment it out, like this:

   <!-- <?php comments_template( '', true ); ?> -->

   @flamenco, that's not what I'm after.

   @songdogtech, thanks. But that will remove the comments on all pages yes?
