you will need to search through all the theme’s templates and remove comments_template(); also possibly remove other code with 'comment' in the function name, such as comments_popup_link() and/or comments_number() etc.
also possibly edit comments.php, and add return; as the first code immediately after any commented section at the start.

Hello,
I would like to remove the comment boxes out of the theme altogether.
I have turned off all the comments under the WordPress Dashboard and they still show.
I turned off all the categories and it still showed the comment areas. I then turned on “persistent mode” and the comment areas still remain.
I have also turned off the comments through a plug in called “disable comments” -and they still show.
I even added an additional plug in called, “Ultra Hide Comment Box”, and though everything is enabled, comments are still showing (see attachment).
Can you tell me how to completely remove the comments?
