   I was wondering if I disable comments to a blog post, will that do anything to the comments that are already there? Or will that just not allow anyone else to leave a new comment?

   The reason I'm asking is that I'm doing a giveaway on my blog and when the giveaway ends, I want to close the comments so that no one else can enter the giveaway after that time. But I want to make sure that nothing happens to the comments that are already left there.

   The blog I need help with is veronicamade.wordpress.com.

   Disabling comments It will not have an effect on the comments that are already approved and appearing under the blog post.

   To disable comments on already-published posts or pages, you can edit each post and uncheck the "Allow comments" setting. See http://en.support.wordpress.com/enable-disable-comments/#enabledisable-comments
