Hi pakhibagai,

If you want to disable comments for a specific post, FAQ or article, you can do so by editing it and unchecking the option in Discussion > Allow comments. If you don’t see the Discussion section, you should check if it’s enabled in the Screen options (in the upper right corner of the edit page).

If you don’t want your users to be commenting in your site at all, you can disable comments entirely by unchecking the option in Settings > Discussion > Default article settings > Allow people to post comments on new articles. In case that you want an intermediate option, you can fine-tune the commenting functionality of your site from this page of the WordPress admin.

Note that disabling the comments for the site does not disable them for previously published items: if you want to do so, you have to do it for each one of them. Fortunately, you can use WordPress’ bulk edit functionality by going to the items’ listing, checking all the items you want to edit, selecting Edit from the Bulk Actions dropdown menu, and choosing Do not allow in the Comments option.

Removing the author box is much easier: you can do it by unchecking the option in NiceThemes > Theme Options > General Settings > Post Author Box.

Please let me know if this fixes your issues, and if we can be of further assistance.

Best,

Ricardo

Hi pakhibagai,

Would you please provide me with a link to your website? With that, I’ll be happy to look into the issue.

Thanks in advance,

Ricardo

Hi pakhibagai,

Thanks, I see it now.

That piece of HTML code can’t be removed, but you can prevent it from showing by pasting the following code in NiceThemes > Theme Options > Design & Styles > Custom CSS:

.post-meta .post-author {
  display: none;
}

Please let me know if this fixes your issue, and if we can be of further assistance.

Best,

Ricardo

Hi pakhibagai,

Sure! You can do it the same way, the code is very similar. For the comments part:

.post-meta .post-comments {
  display: none;
}

And for the date part:

.post-meta .post-date {
  display: none;
}

Please let me know if you need further assistance.

Best,

Ricardo
