   I have never used WP before, and am making a template for my client. I am still on the default installation (1 post, 1 comment), and I can see the link saying "1 comment" but when I click on it, the link disappears, and the comment doesn't show.

   My index.php:
   

   <?php get_header(); ?>
   			<div id="body">
   				<div id="sidebar-left">
   				WidgetBucks Stuff
   </div>				<div id="content">
   
   											<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
   
   		<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
   
   			<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
   				<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
   				<small><?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?> <!-- by <?php the_author() ?> --></small>
   
   				<div class="entry">
   					<?php the_content('Read the rest of this entry &raquo;'); ?>
   				</div>
   
   				<p class="postmetadata"><?php the_tags('Tags: ', ', ', '<br />'); ?> Posted in <?php the_category(', ') ?> | <?php edit_post_link('Edit', '', ' | '); ?>  <?php comments_popup_link(); ?></p>
   			</div>
   
   		<?php endwhile; ?>
   
   		<div class="navigation">
   			<div class="alignleft"><?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Older Entries') ?></div>
   			<div class="alignright"><?php previous_posts_link('Newer Entries &raquo;') ?></div>
   		</div>
   
   	<?php else : ?>
   
   		<h2 class="center">Not Found</h2>
   		<p class="center">Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn't here.</p>
   		<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . "/searchform.php"); ?>
   
   	<?php endif; ?>				</div>
   <?php get_sidebar(); ?>
   <?php get_footer(); ?>

   What is missing/wrong?

   Thanks,

   Is this the only 'page' template in your setup? No single.php?

   Anyway, whatever template is displaying the post needs this in it to include the comments and comment form:

   <?php comments_template(); ?>
