  I have added a custom form on my ‘about’ page, for people to contact me directly by email, so I would like to remove the ‘make a reply’ form underneath. How can I do that?

  thanks!

  You can remove the comment forms from individual pages by editing the page. When you are in the page editing screen, scroll down to the “discussion” module and uncheck “allow comments.”

  If the discussion module doesn’t seem to be there, click “screen options” in the upper right hand corner of the page and select “discussion.” :)

  Small correction: uncheck “Allow comments” and “Allow trackbacks and pingbacks on this page”.

  I hadn’t thought about the pingbacks. :) Thanks for pointing that out!

  I knew about the unchecking comments and discussion but I couldn’t find them while editing the page.

  Now I’ve found the ‘screen options’ box (on top right of screen) and the comments/discussion forms were unchecked so I ticked them on and the forms came on the editing screen.

  Problem solved! Thank you so much, mmadfan and panaghiotisadam :)
