Comment on pages
-
Is there a way to add comments like in blog posts to the pages? I don’t see the option anywhere within the individual page options. Some of my pages are set up with a Virtue Gallery and I selected “allow comments on galleries” under theme options but no comments appear. I have a few tutorials on my site and would like to allow commenting.
Thanks in advance,
Brad

Currently pages aren’t set up to use comments in virtue, the box you are talking about refers to the portfolio posts. Is there any reason to not make those pages posts?
If you want to add it yourself you can edit the page template files, just before the closing div add this:
<?php comments_template('/templates/comments.php'); ?>Kadence Themes
Perfect! It worked.
Thanks so much!
BradI just tried this. It added the comments box beautifully but now it isn’t showing the text for the page. What did I do wrong?
The only thing that I could think of is you may have removed a div for the page’s actual content when inserting the comment div.
Do you know how I can fix that?
What is the name of the PHP file that you modified in WordPress for the comments?
page.blog.php
Here is my page.blog.php file. Just replace this php file with yours. I would suggest you make a copy of your current file in case this one doesn’t work for you.
<?php
/*
Template Name: Blog
*/
?><div id=”pageheader” class=”titleclass”>
<div class=”container”>
<?php get_template_part(‘templates/page’, ‘header’); ?>
</div><!–container–>

<?php if(kadence_display_sidebar()) {$display_sidebar = true; $fullclass = ”;} else {$display_sidebar = false; $fullclass = ‘fullwidth’;}
global $post; if(get_post_meta( $post->ID, ‘_kad_blog_summery’, true ) == ‘full’) {$summery = ‘full’; $postclass = “single-article fullpost”;} else {$summery = ‘normal’; $postclass = ‘postlist’;} ?>
<div class=”main <?php echo kadence_main_class();?> <?php echo $postclass .’ ‘. $fullclass; ?>” role=”main”>
<?php global $post; $blog_category = get_post_meta( $post->ID, ‘_kad_blog_cat’, true );
if($blog_category == ‘-1’ || $blog_category == ”) {
$blog_cat_slug = ”;
} else {
$blog_cat = get_term_by (‘id’,$blog_category,’category’);
$blog_cat_slug = $blog_cat -> slug;
}$blog_items = get_post_meta( $post->ID, ‘_kad_blog_items’, true );
if($blog_items == ‘all’) {$blog_items = ‘-1’;}$temp = $wp_query;
$wp_query = null;
$wp_query = new WP_Query();
$wp_query->query(array(
‘paged’ => $paged,
‘category_name’=>$blog_cat_slug,
‘posts_per_page’ => $blog_items));
$count =0;
if ( $wp_query ) : while ( $wp_query->have_posts() ) : $wp_query->the_post(); ?>
<?php if($summery == ‘full’) {
if($display_sidebar){
get_template_part(‘templates/content’, ‘fullpost’);
} else {
get_template_part(‘templates/content’, ‘fullpostfull’);
}
} else {
if($display_sidebar){
get_template_part(‘templates/content’, get_post_format());
} else {
get_template_part(‘templates/content’, ‘fullwidth’);
}
}
endwhile; else: ?>
<li class=”error-not-found”><?php _e(‘Sorry, no blog entries found.’, ‘virtue’); ?>
<?php endif; ?><?php if ($wp_query->max_num_pages > 1) : ?>
<?php if(function_exists(‘kad_wp_pagenavi’)) { ?>
<?php kad_wp_pagenavi(); ?>

<?php } ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php $wp_query = null; $wp_query = $temp; // Reset ?>
<?php wp_reset_query(); ?></div><!– /.main –>
Also, I think you put the comment div on the wrong php file… This looks like the php file for the main blog page, not individual page posts.
Awesome! Thank you. That may be possible. Like I said, I have no idea what I’m doing.
Hi,
I would really like to add comments to my pages as well. I located the file here: Virtue: Comments (templates/comments.php), and would just like to clarify that the code should go where exactly?
Here’s the code:
<?php
if (post_password_required()) {
return;
}if (have_comments()) : ?>
<section id=”comments”>
<h3><?php printf(_n(‘One Response ‘, ‘%1$s Responses ‘, get_comments_number(), ‘virtue’), number_format_i18n(get_comments_number()), get_the_title()); ?></h3><ol class=”media-list”>
<?php wp_list_comments(array(‘walker’ => new Kadence_Walker_Comment)); ?><?php if (get_comment_pages_count() > 1 && get_option(‘page_comments’)) : ?>
<nav>
<ul class=”pager”>
<?php if (get_previous_comments_link()) : ?>
<li class=”previous”><?php previous_comments_link(__(‘← Older comments’, ‘virtue’)); ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php if (get_next_comments_link()) : ?>
<li class=”next”><?php next_comments_link(__(‘Newer comments →’, ‘virtue’)); ?>
<?php endif; ?></nav>
<?php endif; ?><?php if (!comments_open() && !is_page() && post_type_supports(get_post_type(), ‘comments’)) : ?>
<?php global $virtue; if(isset($virtue[‘close_comments’])) {$show_closed_comment = $virtue[‘close_comments’]; } else {$show_closed_comment = 1;}
if($show_closed_comment == 1){ ?>
<div class=”alert”>
<?php _e(‘Comments are closed.’, ‘virtue’); ?>
</div>
<?php } else { } ?>
<?php endif; ?>
</section><!– /#comments –>
<?php endif; ?><?php if (!have_comments() && !comments_open() && !is_page() && post_type_supports(get_post_type(), ‘comments’)) : ?>
<?php global $virtue; if(isset($virtue[‘close_comments’])) {$show_closed_comment = $virtue[‘close_comments’]; } else {$show_closed_comment = 1;}
if($show_closed_comment == 1){ ?>

<div class=”alert”>
<?php _e(‘Comments are closed.’, ‘virtue’); ?>
