# Comments on posts don’t display

 * Something is happening to my comments–although the code calls for the comments
   code, it somehow isn’t making it onto the post. The snippet of code as it was–`
   <?php comment_template(); ?>` –made my right sidebar and the footer disappear.
   Changing this to `<?php include ('comment_template.php'); ?>` brought the sidebar
   and footer back, but the comments still don’t display. Any help will be greatly
   appreciated!

 * Okay. I have gotten comments to display by just replacing comments.php from a
   different theme. Now, though, my comment moderation settings seem to have no 
   effect.
