• How can I amend my template to show comments. In English, please. Very. Slowly.
    My eyes glaze over when I see ‘code’, ‘css’, ‘plug-ins’, etc.
    I just type and post.

  • it depends on where you want to show comments
    most themes show them on the single post view by default

    Yes, I want to show comments under each single post. But it’s not happening.
    Not by default, not by intention, not by anything. Help, please!

    I see comments under the single post
    http://www.onetoughcookienyc.com/blog/?p=48

    do you mean you want them on the front page or other Pages?

    No, just like that. Maybe it’s the way I’m approving? If I just look at http://www.onetoughcookienyc.com/blog I don’t see the comments. So, I guess the question is, how to approve comments and have that ‘look’ be the most recent one that opens up under that url? Make sense?

    when you create a post it gives the option for comments and pignbacks make sure comments is checked.

    Did that.

    In fact, I checked comments and pingbacks.

    If I just look at http://www.onetoughcookienyc.com/blog I don’t see the comments

    that is because the comment code is only in single.php – not index.php
    if you want comments on front page, copy the comment code from single.php and add it to index.php right after the_content call

    And, where do I go to find these codes? I WARNED you I wasn’t good at this (seriously, thanks for taking the time to help me).

    Step-by-step.

    Please

    you can do it from the wordpress editor or download the files – adjust and re upload

    the files are in your theme folder you have activated at the moment if you want to download

    in editor
    Appearance – Editor
    then click on file you want to work with

    if not comfortable doing this, email me and I’ll do it
    srb333 at att dot net
    make it look like a real email add.

    Has anyone ever told you you’re a prince? I’m going to try it myself, but if I fail, I’ll be back.

    Thank you so much!

    Am I going into “add themes”, then checking off Threaded Comments, then picking the style I like to install?

    Am I even warm?

    no – not that
    you want the Editor link under Appearance
    this will list your theme files to work with

    I’m crying uncle. That code might as well be in Greek. Which, by the way, I think it is.

    Pemission codes have been changed. Now, can you walk me through adding the codes from the page to the index again? I can’t seem to do that by myself.

    Thank you
