Title: Comments box missing Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # Comments box missing * [deborahbabin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/deborahbabin/) * (@deborahbabin) * [12 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-box-missing-2/) * The comments box on blog posts shows when post is new. once someone comments, the box disappears. all that shows is a small “add comment” under all the categories. this is not easy to see. I have the add comments box checked.

Comments are closed.

``` * Your theme/customizations have multiple markup errors. These need to be addressed. * You may just need to turn comments on for this specific/page post. Comments can be turned off per page/post or after a period of time. * [http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fdeborahbabin.com%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0](http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fdeborahbabin.com%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0) * Thread Starter [deborahbabin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/deborahbabin/) * (@deborahbabin) * [12 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-box-missing-2/#post-3719396) * I need a professional to make these corrections.
