I’d like to make a contact page? Any thoughts?

I’m new to WP and currently developing the site: http://www.exploringelements.com. I love this theme and hope to make it do everything that I require for the new project. Any and all thoughts on the site would be great. Still developing the projects before I go “live”, althought the site is up and running.

Install the Contact Form 7 plugin, then create a contact form using that plugin, then create a Contact page and add that form into that page.

Worked great thanks. I now need to remove the social sharing buttons and the comment section from just the “CONTACT” page. Is there a way to do this?

Go to that page in your editor and scroll below the editor window.

Look for the “comments” section, and here you can select to disable comments.

Look for the “sharing” section, and here you can disable the sharing icons.

If you don’t see these options, you may need to click the “screen options” tab in the upper-right corner while in the page editor. Make sure to “check” the options needed.

you may need to click the “screen options” tab in the upper-right corner while in the page editor. Make sure to “check” the options needed.

Specifically, make sure the “Graphene page-specific options” box is ticked. An options pane will appear below your editing area. You can turn off social sharing buttons from there.

Got rid of the social sharing, but can’t figure out how to get rid of the comments section only on the “contact” page.

Same as above, but you are looking for “Discussion” pane. You can turn off comments for that page only from there.
