 * hi all,
 * I have tried al I that I can but am still stuck with this problem. Feeling extremely
   frustrated now and I hope someone can help me out with solving the mystery I 
   am in the midst of. Thanx in advance.
 * First of all, here is the link to my wordpress blog:
    [http://www.missjoey.com/chocolate-circle](http://www.missjoey.com/chocolate-circle)
 * Somehow, when I click into any one of the posts, the comment area which should
   appear under each post has disappeared. It can’t be a problem with 2.7 or the
   comment settings in dashboard, as I have tried applying other themes to my blog
   and the comment area comes back. So, I thought it might be the theme that doesn’t
   support commenting. However, I have searched on the internet with people using
   the same theme and they have their comment area present with no problem. Then,
   I thought I might have screwed up something in the script of the theme. So, I
   tried reinstalling a fresh copy of the theme yet it is not helping either.
 * Can anyone enlighten me on what the possible error is???
 * A very frustrated wordpress.org user,
    Joey

 * Does your single.php file contain `<?php comments_template(); ?>`
 * Also, just a shot in the dark but do you have comments enabled? WP 2.7 has a 
   feature which allows you to disable comments on posts older than x number of 
   days as determined by you.

 * I also have the problem that I don’t see the comment box.
    The php file is not
   in the directory. Where can I find this file? Renko

 * Renko,
 * You can find single.php file in current active theme directory.
