  Is there a way to turn comments off, as I’m going to experiment with having my posts linked to on Google + as I’m fed up of getting useless comments on my blog, as the spam filter sometimes tends to let spam through and trap none spam comments?

  Sure. On Settings->Discussion, just set it to disable comments. On existing posts and pages, however, you’ll have to edit them one by one and turn comments off on the Edit page underneath the Write Post box.

  It’s interesting to note that you’re finding that ‘spammy’ comments are getting through. I find the spam filter to be very reliable, myself. Perhaps your problem is simply a configuration issue?

  Just guessin’.
