  Hi, have just started a blog but I don’t want people to be able to comment on the homepage. Is there a way to make the homepage a simple page with fixed text (ie without posts/comments)?

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

  Yes, create a static front page for your site. If you want comments off site-wide, you can do that at settings > discussion. That change will only affect posts and pages created from that point forward.

  For existing posts or pages, you will need to turn the comments off manually. You can do that from the discussion module in the post/page editor (click the screen options tab at upper right and activate if the module does not show below the text area in the editor).

  You can also use the post and page bulk edit feature.
