 * Create a page.php file in your theme and copy the contents of the index.php file
   to the newly create page.php file.
 * Then remove the comment code in the page.php file.
 * `<?php comments_template(); ?>`
 * This is just one way of doing that I find very easy

 * If you have access to the files via FTP then you have something to work with.
 * The only other thing I can see you doing in enabling comments on the site in 
   settings. Then when you don’t want comments for a page you can clicked to disabled
   comments in the page options tab at the top while editing a page.

 * jvazjr1979, can be be more specific about what you don’t know how to do?
 * If you can let us know which part you can’t do I (or we) can write detailed instructions
   for a step-by-step process.
 * Try to follow the following steps and if you still aren’t sure let us know.
 * 1. Open up notepad on your computer and save the blank document as page.php (
   not page.php.txt). Minimize this window and open your brower.
 * 2. Log into your host control panel. Go to your ftp folder (where all your files
   are stored), go to /wp-content/ -> /themes/ -> /whichever theme is the theme 
   you are using/ -> open the index.php file.
 * 3. Copy (highlight all content then press ctrl + c) the content and paste it 
   into the blank notepad file you created earlier titled page.php
 * 4. Once you have it pasted (ctrl + v) press ctrl + f and search for comments_template.
   When you find it delete “<?php comments_template(); ?>” then save the file
 * 5. Return to your ftp folder and upload the page.php file.
 * Complete 🙂
 * If you are unsure about the technical stuff like how to access your ftp folder
   call your hostcompanies technical support line. All hosting companies are set
   up differently so they are the best ones to walk you through that process.
 * Hope this helps 🙂 let us know if it doesn’t
