Does anyone know how I can display all the comments without having to click on the Comments link to show them. I have version 2.9.1. Surprisingly there is no option in the admin panel. Thanks greatly for any help.

A link to the page that is not displaying Comments the way you want will help people to help you -

usually, if your comments are a link, then in your index.php it probably references something like:<?php comments_popup_link('ADD COMMENTS', '1 COMMENT', '% COMMENTS'); ?>which can be swapped to
<?php comments_template(); ?>
to display your comment form in place -
Posted 2 years ago #Well I found the index.php file in the wp-content>themes>classic directory and replaced the <?php comments_popup_link(__('Comments (0)'), __('Comments (1)'), __('Comments (%)')); ?> line of code with <?php comments_template(); ?> and made the comments links go away BUT didn't show the comments at all. I have version 2.9.1. Perhaps the code needs to be something a little different for this version?? I also noticed that there are 3 or 4 other index.php files in different places but none of them had code like the one I was told to replace. My goal again: to replace the Comments links and have all the comments show by default without having to click on any Comments links. Thanks for the help. I think I am close if someone can help me get over the hump-I'm sure it is something minor. (I tried it twice carefully to make sure I was doing exactly as instructed).
thanks again,
looking forward to response,
Dave
