 * I just installed the Sugar and Spice theme and my posts do not show comments 
   at the bottom of each page. I have enabled the comments, however there is no 
   where to leave them.

 * Are these older posts? If you enabled comments by going to **Settings → Discussion**,
   that will only affect any new posts that you create. If you want to enable comments
   on your previous posts:
    1. From the dashboard, go to **Posts → All Posts**.
    2. Click the checkbox labeled **Title**, and that should select all of the posts
       on the page.
    3. On the **Bulk Actions** dropdown, select **Edit** and then click the **Apply**
       button.
    4. A section will open up, labeled **BULK EDIT**. In the **Comments** dropdown,
       select **Allow**.
    5. Click the blue **Update** button.
    6. Move to the next page of posts and repeat, until you’ve covered all of your 
       posts.
 * All of your posts should then have comments enabled.

 * My comments are indeed enabled, however the comment section is inconsistently
   showing up. Some readers are able to see it and can leave comments, but others
   can not see it at all, not even comments left by other readers. I can not figure
   out what is going on with that. Any thoughts?

 * Might be related to your caching plugin. Have you tried clearing the cache on
   it and checking the settings or deactivating it to see if it’s causing this problem?
 * BTW, they do show up fine for me.

 * Thanks! I just cleared the cache, so we will see if that helps. Glad you could
   see the comments, because when I go to the site directly, I can’t see them. So
   strange…

 * Might also be a browser issue – what browser are you using? Have you tried another
   one and/or tried clearing the cache and cookies in your browser?

 * I am using Firefox, but I have also checked it on my android tablet, as well 
   as the IPad.

 * Interesting that your blog page only displays one post per page. Now, you aren’t
   getting the blog pages mixed up with the post pages, are you? That is, you will
   not see a comment section on a blog page, only on the post pages. For example,
   [this page](http://www.thisabundantlifeblog.com/page/2/) and [this page](http://www.thisabundantlifeblog.com/2015/03/19/saying-goodbye-to-old-house/)
   look the same, because they have the same content, but the first page isn’t going
   to show a comment section because it’s actually the blog page and not the post
   page (look at the URL of each). Usually, a blog page will show more than one 
   post excerpt (I think the default in WordPress is 10), but you can set it to 
   whatever value you want), so it’s usually easy to tell a blog page apart from
   an actual blog post.
