it may be that you have comments turned off for that post, so make sure that they’re enabled.
I have the same problem but it occured after I installed the plugin wp-phpmyadmin. I’ve deleted this program completely from my server and all its htaccess files, but the comments link is not showing up. If you look in the admin section, you can see the comments but they dont appear on the website and you cant post new comments. Any suggestions? My site is healthcrunchies.com
Thanks!
Larrian, no i can’t help with that, as it appears that the plug-in caused the problem. but, i can offer some advice-always backup your files before installing plug-ins so that if something like this happens again, you can just uninstall the plug-in and re-upload your ‘good’ files. good luck.

t3ch33, that’s not the problem. Is it possibly a theme issue? I switched to the classic theme, and at least when you click on the 0 comments link, it lets you leave one. The default theme has no link whatsoever. In the theme I’m using, there is a 0 comments link, but nothing happens when you click on it. I tried to find the code on a different template in my theme, but I don’t know what, if anything, to copy and put in my page template. On one of my pages, the All About Desi page, I’m using a different page template, and that one seems to be working okay, but there again, I don’t know what part of the code to copy that will make this work on the other pages. 🙁
I’m not familiar with the WordPress commenting system, but the link to leave a reply is missing at my site.

The displayed link’s text is theme-specific. Edit your template files. It is time to get familiar with the Template_Tags
Template_Tags#Comment_tags
Template_Tags/comments_popup_link
Normally, in any decent theme Pages don’t have the call for the comments template. You will have to edit your Page template(s) to insert the call found in your single.php, for example.
Hi Moshu:
I’ve read the links you suggested about comment_tags and I was finally able to place the “Leave a Comment” link on my page. Now when I click on it, it sends me to the top of the article (I think it’s because there are no comments and it’s sending me to the comments). I would like it to go down where the comment/reply box instead…as if you were responding. Is there something like example.com/article_title/#respond ?
this is how I have it in the index.php
<div class="PostCom">
<ul>
<li><?php comments_popup_link('0 Comments', '1 Comment', '% Comments'); ?></li>
<li><a href="<?php comments_link(); ?>"> Leave a comment</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
here is the site URL: http://www.509gossip.com/
Help please
thanks
