The checkboxes just allow for that to happen, but if you’re missing that line of code, it’ll never show anyway. Typically it’s found at the bottom of your single.php page, but it can be placed anywhere you want people to leave/read comments. * Thread Starter [rosielocks](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rosielocks/) * (@rosielocks) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-not-available-1/#post-2901849) * Hi, Was just looking in the library of my theme and i can’t seem to find the single.php file in there. I made my template in artisteer and exported it to wordpress. Any idea where i might find single.php? * Thread Starter [rosielocks](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rosielocks/) * (@rosielocks) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-not-available-1/#post-2901850) * sry template should read *theme * [wpismypuppet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordpressismypuppet/) * (@wordpressismypuppet) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-not-available-1/#post-2901852) * single.php is the page that would show a single post… Usually in a blog you’d have a “page of posts” showing a list of posts and a short excerpt. When you click on one of the posts, you are taken to single.php to see the whole post. * If you don’t have a single.php, then the single posts would display on index. php by default. * If you are working with pages, and not posts, then you should have a page.php file. If you don’t have that, pages will use index.php by default. * Check out the WordPress [Template Hierarchy](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Hierarchy) for more info on what items use what files to be displayed! * Thread Starter [rosielocks](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rosielocks/) * (@rosielocks) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-not-available-1/#post-2901859) * I found the index php in the public.html folder and edited to read * * Thread Starter [rosielocks](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rosielocks/) * (@rosielocks) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-not-available-1/#post-2901860) * sorry about that mess i highlighhted the code and pressed code but i guess i’m doing that wrong as well! * [wpismypuppet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordpressismypuppet/) * (@wordpressismypuppet) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-not-available-1/#post-2901861) * No no no no no… Undo that at once! 🙂 * The files you are going to be looking for will be located in public_html/wp-content/ themes/[name of your theme]/ * Replace [name of your theme] with the name of your theme. You should find an index.php file there, but now that I know you are looking in the wrong place, you might find single.php and others 🙂 * Thread Starter [rosielocks](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rosielocks/) * (@rosielocks) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-not-available-1/#post-2901865) * Great Thanks! i have edited the page.php to show comments at the bottom of the pages where i need them ( :.
