  On my “About”, “Contact” and “Submission” pages I have comments turned off. As a result, I get a large-type “Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.”
  Is there any way to hide this annoying notice?
  Thanks!

  It would require the paid CSS upgrade and at least a little knowledge of CSS.

  How much is the paid CSS upgrade that you’re talking about, TheSacredPath ??

  The current price is always on your Dashboard under UPgrades.

  I figured it out. It’s $14.97 yearly. Thanks Raincoaster.
  How hard would it be for a friend who’s a programmer to get rid of the large “Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time” warning?

  Completely depends on his/her abilities with CSS. You can have him/her try it out using the free Preview and see if they’ve got the needed skill set.

  It is very easy to get rid of. It has a separate ID or class assigned to it.

  In fact, here is what you would need to put into the CSS edit window.

  p.comments-closed {
  display:none;
  }

  You can try it out with the preview function if you wish although the preview function is a little flakey lately so you might have to force refresh the preview page to see the change. Delete all the informational stuff from the edit window before pasting the above.
