Title: Adding Comments to Page Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # Adding Comments to Page * Resolved [frogdogz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/frogdogz/) * (@frogdogz) * [14 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-comments-to-page/) * Hello all, I’m hoping someone can help me with a theme issue I am having, since the template creator seems to no longer be offering any support. * I am using a WP theme which by default does not have comments appear on pages, even when ‘comments allowed’ is chosen as an option site wide.
