  I’m trying to make my own website, so I don’t want my blog to look like a blog. How do I remove the leave a comment box, as well as the “Archives” “Blog Roll” and “Categories” box at the bottom of the page? I have the CSS upgrade.

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

  I got the bottom bit to go away, so now I just want to get rid of the comment box.

  Go to settings > discussion and disable comments. This will affect all pages and posts from that point forward. Any existing pages or posts, you will have to edit and then disable comments in the discussion module down below the text area in the editor.

  For the widgets at the bottom, go to appearance > widgets and drag a text widget over and into both of the sidebars and leave them blank (no title and nothing in the text box).

  Oh yeah, and one other thing. At settings > discussion, disable trackbacks and pingbacks too. Make sure and save after doing that so that your changes are saved.

  Thanks for the help!
  Any idea how to change the theme width? The header, the body text, everything. I tried going through and changing the pixels in the coding but it’s not working.

  Do you have the CSS upgrade? Right now the over all width is 500px. How wide did you want to go?
