  I am setting up a new site with a blog. I want the comments to appear in blog posts but not on pages. How is this accomplished?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Comments on all pages and posts on every WordPress blog are enabled by default. This page > Settings > Discussion
  Discussion settings is where you set up defaults for comments.

  We can also override the default settings and enable or disable future comments on any individual post or page.

  Note: By default, new blogs on WordPress.com will have the Discussion hidden. 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

  Go to Pages > All Pages, click the little square to select all the pages, select Edit from the Bulk Actions pulldown, click Apply, select Do Not Allow from the Comments pulldown, click Update.
