[resolved] comment link not showing on category pages (7 posts)

    Hi everyone,
    my blog is http://www.creativehedgehog.com
    I have made my own theme, based on http://simplyblackandwhite.net/2008/08/25/greymonger-theme/ .

    My problem: on my index page there is a "leave a comment" or "1 comment/2 comments/etc" link at the bottom of each post. On a category page, this doesn't appear.

    I have made a "category.php" that is identical to index.php

    <h3><b>COMMENTS</b></h3>
    		<?php comments_template(); // Get wp-comments.php template ?>

    But still the comments don't appear

    A new wrinkle:
    I've noticed that on the index page there is no COMMENTS word displayed (instead: "Leave a Comment" etc)

    but on the category page (example: http://www.creativehedgehog.com/?cat=19) the word COMMENTS is displayed instead.

    use this
    <?php comments_popup_link('No Comment', '1 Comment', '% Comments'); ?>

    what's the "comments_popup_link" mean? Not for a popup window?
    Ah. Only for popup window if comment_popup_script() is used.

    Thanks!

    I did it and it worked. :)
