  I purchased the CSS upgrade to the “Morning After” theme and I’d like to remove the “discussion” box from all the pages (i.e., we have a section on “Filmmakers” and there shouldn’t be a “leave a comment” box). Any ideas? I have searched forums and tried some solutions but nothing seems to be working.

  I would also like to replace the top right area (search bar) with a widget. Any ideas on how to do this?

  Thanks.

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

  To turn off comments, try this first: http://en.support.wordpress.com/enable-disable-comments/

  Here is an example of absolutely positioning a sidebar widget over the top of the search box in The Morning After theme:

  #twitter-2 {
  position: absolute;
  top: 20px;
  right: 20px;
  width: 410px;
  height: 90px;
  overflow: hidden;
  background: white;
  }

  To use a different widget, replace “#twitter-2″ with the id of a different widget. You can find the id by viewing your blog’s page source (look for something like Tools → Web Developer → Page Source) and then look through the code until you find the content of the widget you’d like to move. Here is the first part of the html for the Twitter widget that I used as an example above. The id=”twitter-2” part is what you’re looking for.

  <div id="twitter-2" class="widget widget_twitter">

  Thanks — I actually ended up exporting the blog to my own hosting account (using the same theme) and that took care of it, by default the “Discussion” part did not seem to come up on each page.
