I helped a friend of mine yesterday with some Wordpress stuff (which I know very little about), end we ended up doing some minor editing in a PHP file.

We found this file in a nice list displaying all PHP and CSS files involved in the theme.

Today my girlfriend was trying to remove the comment field from her pages. It involves doing some editing in a PHP file, but we are not able to find the files. The list from yesterday has seemingly disappeared magically from the menus (or we have forgotten where it was).

Or is this a free vs pro thing? My girlfriend uses the free version, but I don't know if my other friend had the pro.

Both free and pro (I think you mean premium themes under pro, correct?) have the same architecture, so the theme files are all pretty much the same. But, due to the complexity of majority of premium themes, they may have been modified to a point where in some cases finding something like a comment field is not as easy as with, for example, Twenty Ten/Eleven, the default WordPress theme. Regardless, most of your theme files should be accessible via, like @Ciprian Popescu said, Appearance > Editor page. – Asko Jan 10 '12 at 15:26

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, see the FAQ.

Try Appearance > Editor and select a PHP template from the right.

There is no 'Editor' option under Appearance – erikric Jan 10 '12 at 16:41
