First, do not edit the Twenty Eleven theme. It is the default WordPress 3.2 theme and having access to an unedited version of the theme is vital when dealing with a range of site issues. Create a child theme for your changes. Once your child theme is active, we should be able to help with the customisation.
– to remove ‘Leave a reply’
edit content.php, and remove:
`<?php if ( comments_open() ) : ?>
<?php if ( $show_sep ) : ?>
<span class=”sep”> | </span>
<?php endif; // End if $show_sep ?>
<span class=”comments-link”><?php comments_popup_link( ‘<span class=”leave-reply”>’ . __( ‘Leave a reply’, ‘twentyeleven’ ) . ‘</span>’, __( ‘<b>1</b> Reply’, ‘twentyeleven’ ), __( ‘<b>%</b> Replies’, ‘twentyeleven’ ) ); ?></span>
<?php endif; // End if comments_open() ?>`
You can disable commenting on your site by going to :
Settings >> Discussion >> uncheck “Allow people to post comments on new articles”.
There are some other options too that you can change.

Hello,
The support above has stopped “Leave A Reply” on other pages, but it is still on the bottom of the front, Home page. If you can guide me further I will be very grateful.
Thankyou

Hello Tara,
I did have a look at this but I am not sure which is the template for my front page. I thought it was Default but I can’t see a default page template?
I do hope this makes some sense.
Thankyou for helping.
Regards
Neil

Hello Tara,
No, I don’t see home.php. I am using theme TwentyEleven which ships with WP if that helps.
I see page.php; index.php; single.php; content-page.php?
Thankyou

<?php is_front_page(); ?>
