“turning on” comments on some pages

    I would like to have comments appear on just some pages. I have looked over previous threads and seen several discussions. Most interestingly, there appears to be a button on “Manage Pages” that is labeled “Discussion” and has a place that comments can be checked or not for each individual page. It seems to make no difference when I check “comments” or don’t check it.

    Is there something that I can look for to make this operational on a page by page basis?

    Thanks!!

    Oh! I’m sorry…I forgot to say that I am using the Kubrick default template and have version 2.02 (I think) of WordPress.

    Thanks!

    I did it! I found thread http://www.wordpress.org/support/topic/16759?replies=12, so I added the <?php comments_template( ); ?> into the page template (page.php) file like this:

    <?php link_pages(‘Pages: ‘, ”, ‘number’); ?>
    <?php comments_template(); ?>

    then I could go back and turn off the “comments” under the discussion panel for each page that I did not want comments to appear on; all others show “comments closed”.

    That works.

    It is even better to create an additional Page Template – so the “comments closed” doesn’t even show up where you don’t want comments.
