  Hi there,

  The footer credit is required to be displayed according to our terms of service:
  http://en.wordpress.com/tos/

  Note that even sites hosted through our VIP program, such as the TED blog, display a credit to WordPress.com in the footer.
  (See the bottom of http://blog.ted.com/ for an example)

  If you want to disable comments on all pages, please go to Pages > All pages in your Dashboard. Then select all pages by checking the box left of “Title”. Then, go to the drop down menu labeled “Bulk Actions” and select “Edit”. Click on “Apply”, and you will see another dropdown menu next to “Comments”. Select “Do Not Allow”, and click “Update”.

  This should disable Comments on all the pages you checked off.

  Let me know if you have any questions with this!

  Thank you! Can you tell me how to make the footer credit smaller/less prominent in that case? On my site it sits in a large yellow strip at the bottom! Thanks. Jo

  Hi there,

  Currently I see that it’s purple. Is that okay?

  Hi!

  Are you referring to the font color in the footer area? If so, you can change the color using the following CSS:

  .footer-content a {
  color: #fff;
  }

  Just input that under Appearance -> Customize -> CSS. Just change the #fff to whatever color you would like.

  In case you’re interested to learn a bit more, we have some information and resources here:
