    My home page has a "Leave a Comment" option even though I have disabled comments everywhere (I think). Please advise how to remove this.

    Comments on all pages and posts on every WordPress blog are enabled by default. This page > Settings > Discussion
    Discussion settings is where you set up defaults for comments.

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

    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

    Depending on the theme we use when we close comments a phrase like “comments closed” or a similar phrase may appear and if so, it can only be removed by CSS editing after purchasing a custom design upgrade.

    I read all this and executed it to the extent possible.
    But I don't see how to do it any further on the home page at this point.

    The comments are still open on posts. You did not disable them. This page > Settings > Discussion
    Discussion settings is where you set up defaults for comments.
