  hi there,

  To turn off comments (the “leave a reply” part) for future posts and pages go to Settings>Discussion on your dashboard and uncheck the third box from the top “Allow people to post comments on new articles.”

  In order to turn off comments for the pages you’ve already created you’ll have to go back and edit each page/post individually. Here’s the easiest way to do that:

  Go to Pages>all Pages on your dashboard.

  If you hover your mouse over the title of each page, you’ll see some editing options appear. Click “Quick Edit” and then uncheck the “allow comments” box and then click “update.” Follow that same procedure for each page until all the comment sections are gone.

  To turn off the “share this” section go to Settings>Sharing and drag all the buttons out of the “enabled services” section. Once they are gone, the section should disappear completely.
