Looks like you're using a customized theme_16 theme for Wordpress; here's exactly what to do.
- Open up the file comments.php file either in via the Wordpress admin editor or in a text editor (the file's located in the wp-content/themes/thesis_16 directory).
- Search for the following code snippet:
PHP Code:
if (!comments_open()) {
?>
<div class="comments_closed">
<p><?php _e('Comments on this entry are closed.', 'thesis'); ?></p>
</div>
<?php
}
- Either remove all of the above code, or just comment it out like so:
PHP Code:
if (!comments_open()) {
?>
<div class="comments_closed">
<p><?php // _e('Comments on this entry are closed.', 'thesis'); ?></p>
</div>
<?php
}
- i.e.
PHP Code:
<?php _e('Comments on this entry are closed.', 'thesis'); ?></p>
becomes
PHP Code:
<?php // _e('Comments on this entry are closed.', 'thesis'); ?></p>
Let me know if that works for you and if it's worthy of 20k banner impressions
PS: If you're absolutely positive that you won't use comments again in the future just remove all of the above code completely - everything from
if to
} - this willl lead to
slightly better performance.
