Hi, I am using Blog 4 Umbraco to create an easily searchable tagged news system for a business site; obviously as it simply news, I want all comment functionality removed.
Is there a way of defaulting all new blog posts to not allow comments?
If not, is it simply a case of altering the macros to take out the comment related UI?
Wish this forum had a "search within project" option!
If I understand your post correctly all you need to do to disable the comment functionality is to go to the "Blog Post" template in the settings section under "templates".
Here you need to remove/uncomment line 32-34 and line 44-52.
And in the "Starterkit Master" template you need to uncomment line 15.
Since you probably don't need the comment functionality ever you should maybe also consider to remove the "options tab" from the Blog Post document type.

This should do the trick for you.
Hope this was what you were after.
