Can I disable "reply" to a blog comment?

I'm using a blog as a page where students can leave encouragement for other students using the standard "comment" feature. So essentially, my intro and instructions on the page make up the one and only "blog post" and all comments to that post are treated as encouragement for others. 

 

What I don't want is for people to use the "Reply" to those comments feature to say thanks for the encouragement or whatever. I just want encouragement only featured on the page. I've set it so that I have to approve all comments and replies and I don't approve the "replies," but is there a way to hide the reply feature altogether in this case? I know there's not anything in the preferences, so it likely would have to be some other way to alter the code?

 

Here's the page: https://talktoanimals.weebly.com/encouragement/find-encouragement-offer-encouragement

Try adding this to the Header Code field for your blog page on the Pages tab (under SEO Settings after clicking on the page):

<style>
	.blog-button.reply-comment
	{
		display: none !important;
	}
</style>

It should just hide the reply button for each post on the live site.

Adam - that's awesome. Worked like a charm! I ended up adding it to the header on that particular page, as I use the blog feature in several other ways throughout the site and didn't want this code to carry over. So, thank you! I really appreciate your help with this.
