Disabling comments
-
The ‘help’ guide says I must first open the relevant page (to edit), then go from settings>discussion and there I will find two buttons for disabling comments and ping back etc.. But when I follow the instructions given there are no such buttons. I must be doing something wrong!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

All WordPress blogs by default have comments open on all Pages and Posts. Your visitors click the post tiles or the comment links or comment bubbles on the front page of the blog and they are directed to the full post appearing on it’s own page where the comment boxes appear at the end of the posts.
You can enable and disable comments on free hosted WordPress.com blogs on this page > Settings > Discussion Discussion settings is where you set up defaults for comments.

You can reveal it by clicking on Screen Options http://en.support.wordpress.com/screen-options/ on the top right corner of your Admin page, and checking the box that says Discussion so the module is included. http://en.support.wordpress.com/modules/#list-of-modules
