I've been going through my YouTube videos to try to disable the comments. I've been through each one (settings-default settings-advanced settings-comments) and changed them to not allow comments, and saved the settings. But they don't seem to have worked! Is there a way to just do this for all the videos on the channel?

See 'Change your default comment settings' here:

That should disable comments on all new videos you post. Scroll down to the next section, and see 'Bulk edits' to change the setting for existing videos.
Question for Buenchico:

You Tube allows me to create a comment but doesn't seem to save it. Any ideas, please?
EdmundD: I've had plenty of my comments on Youtube videos disappear for no apparent reason too. Most people suggest that the problem seems to lie with over-zealous censorship by Youtube's automatic filtering system (e.g. https://www.quora.com/Why-do-my-replies-on-YouTube-disappear-a-few-seconds-after-posting-the-comment ) but I can never see what it is that I've done wrong!

Thanks Buenchico- it's still not working though. If I visit the channel whilst signed into another account, I can still leave a comment :/
Thanks Buenchico. Just did a search on You Tube and found this:



Now I can see my comments!!

I've done it this way: Go to studio/ click on content / select the videos you want to change using a tick / click on edit (black banner) / comments / from there you can choose to disable etc.
