Similar problem:
I am using WPFolio, have set up static home page and blog as in the WP codex. Comments function enabled and are showing up everywhere I expect to see them except on the blog posts.
any insights or assistance greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Will,
I have resolved my issue but I’m not sure it will help you.
The one thing I’d failed to do was uncheck the ‘hide comments’
in the Content ‘Leaf’ of the blog index.
If you are not familiar with Headway, Headway Leafs give you control over the visual placement and dimensions of page content. There is also (as I have recently discover) the ability to show or hide comments on individual leafs.
I’ve no idea about WPFolio but ‘maybe’ there is a similar function?
If you’ve not managed to sort it yet, I wish you all the best with it as I know too well how frustrating it is!
Good luck!
Thank you,
I do have all the relevant attributes activated. The weird thing is that within the WP dashboard the comments box shows up fine for each post and functions as it should, but when I bring up my website like any person on the web it doesn’t show up.
Regards,
Will
Wish I could help you out but I can’t.
I’m sure and I hope you’ll manage to get it sorted sooner or later.
If for some reason you don’t, you could consider what I was going to do (and actually still probably will anyway).
You could integrate your blog with Facebook (and Twitter) using http://www.livefyre.com/.
I have it on good authority that this is the best way to integrate Facebook comments (oppoesed to other plugins) as you keep ownership of all the comments on your own datebase.
Quote from Nakeva (Head of Community at Livefyre),
……….. we write all comments back to the WordPress database so you own the data, and we have deep integration with Facebook and Twitter. We are all about giving your users more options for commenting while giving you total control of the conversation.
Again, good luck!
Thanks,
I need to focus on the problem and not get sidetracked.
I’m having problems as well. I am using a custom theme, but I tried changing back to Twenty-Eleven just to be sure it wasn’t my theme causing the problems.
The comment box was present yesterday, but today, for some reason, when I go to “quick edit,” all the boxes seem to have been unchecked. I never disabled comments, so this is quite strange.
