  You can turn off the ability to comment on any page by checking off the box next to “Allow Comments” as in this screenshot:

  If you don’t see the Discussion box on your pages, you may need to display it under Screen Options at the top right, as you can see here:

  You can set your Likes to display in two different ways, by going under Settings > Sharing and choosing either:

  – WordPress.com Likes are “On for all posts”
  – WordPress.com Likes are “Turned on per post”

  There isn’t currently a way to, by default, only display Likes on blog posts.

  I see “Allow comments” still checked off on your About page –

  I unchecked it, but to remove existing comments you can click Trash below each comment you want to remove in the Comments area:

  Hi there – if you want, you can switch your Likes settings to “per post” under Settings > Sharing, here:

  https://lanaplantae.wordpress.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=sharing

  That will let you only turn on Likes on a post-by-post and page-by-page basis. As I mentioned before, there isn’t currently a way to hide Likes only Pages but leave them on for the whole blog, unless you were to apply some special CSS with the Custom Design upgrade.
