    Hello,
    I currently am using the weaver theme and have a static page for the home page of my site. I want to disable the ability for anyone to post a comment to the static page.

    You need to create a page template for the home page. Simply save the page.php and rename it to something like homepage.php. In that homepage.php, remove <?php comments_template(); ?>. Edit the homepage in WordPress dashboard and use the new page template.

    Actually, name the template file front-page.php, and WordPress will automatically apply it to the Front Page; no need to update the Page settings!
