every page has commenting enabled, I only want comments on posts, not pages.
Thanks!

You need to open the Page editor for those pages and uncheck "Allow Comments" under the Discussion section.

At the top of your screen, you'll see a small box that says "Screen Options". Click that, and a menu will dropdown. Select to show the "Discussion" area.

Would you prefer to just hide the comment section using CSS for now (until a solution is found for why the comments are still showing up)?

Okay, please add this CSS to your CSS rules box in the theme options:
#maincontent body.page div.commentform {display: none;}

open the page you want to edit. at the very top of the screen you will see a grey tab that says "Screen Options." Click that, then make sure "Discussion" is checked.
The discussion option box has a check box for "Allow comments."

When you create a page or post, you have the option then to allow comments and pings for that post/page. This is WordPress core functionality.
