 * I want to be able to:
 * 1. Exclude info on posts, everything about the post such as date, category and
   who wrote it.
 * 2. Exclude the comment service, so users can’t leave comments.
 * About 1. Iv’e found a widget that excluded the date but not the other things.
 * Thank you!

 * You can do this by editing `single.php` in your theme folder. What’s the code
   in your `single.php`‘s loop?

 * I’ve commented the lines out which you need to remove entirely if don’t want 
   these features. You can turn comments off within the WordPress admin area also.

 * Oh I just noticed the code you posted is broken on this line.
 * Change.
 * `<h2>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></h2
   >`
 * to
 *     ```
       <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
       ```
