   Hi all,

   I currently have multiple pages attached to my wordpress blog such as Contact, Links, Projects, etc. Currently these are hand-coded and I want to migrate them into WordPress as WP 'Pages'.

   I've now done this with a couple and to make them look the same as when they were hand coded I now need to remove two things from them...

   1) The "Comments are closed" text [resolved]
   2) The "Filed under" text

   I removed the 'Comments are closed' text by simply editing the comments.php file in the theme manager as I don't want this text to appear on any page/post if comments are closed.

   the problem is the second one though. I know I can edit this in the theme pages too (index.php) but the problem is I want this text on my blog posts, just not my pages.

   Is this possible?

   Sorry for the size... I have brevity issues.

   Thanks

   Wrong approach - editing the comments.php file.
   You should create Page temnplates for your Pages - where you edit out/delete all the code you don't need for Pages.

   About the cause of your problem: see Template Hierarchy

   Ah brilliant.

   Thank you very much.

   I always thought there might have been an easier way but wasn't sure.

   Thanks!
