  I’m very new to WordPress and while I want the main element of the site to be a blog (with the “Leave a Reply” element found at the bottom of each article), I will also have informational pages that I don’t want the “Leave a Reply” element included.

  Is there a way to remove this from my pages?

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

  All WordPress blogs by default have comments open on all Pages and Posts. Discussion settings is where you set up defaults for comments.

  You can override the default settings and enable or disable future comments on any individual post or page.

  Any existing posts or pages will need to have comments disabled manually via editing. You can use the bulk edit feature in the all posts and all pages screen to make that quicker.

  Note: By default, new blogs on WordPress.com will have the Discussion hidden. You can reveal it by clicking on Screen Options http://en.support.wordpress.com/screen-options/ on the top right corner of your Admin page, and checking the box that says Discussion so the module is included. http://en.support.wordpress.com/modules/#list-of-modules
