Double-check:
When you created the static page, did you check the box next to “Allow Comments”?
Did you change the default template at all?
Are you referring to the comments being closed on pages? Because I never was able to find a solution to that – even in Strayhorn.

Hi,
I made sure to check “Allow Comments” when I create the pages. Every single page that I created, no comments are showing.. I even test the demo wordpress 1.5 site at http://www.opensourcecms.com (direct link to wordpress demo 1.5 – http://www.opensourcecms.com/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=144) and tried creating pages, same thing happens. Try creating a page and add comments.. you will see what I mean.. so I don’t think its only for my blog.. Thanks for all your help!!

For your information.. I didn’t change the default template at all..and it happens to the demo site at opensourcecms so I don’t think the problem is only specific to mine. thanks again,
Whoops. Sorry. I did have the problem at first, then I modified my template and forgot I’d done so. So, I guess it is turned off by default (whether it was overlooked or intentional).
If you just want the comment form to appear
right under:
<?php edit_post_link('Edit this entry.', '', ''); ?>
and before:
</div>
paste this:
<?php comments_template(); ?>
If you’d like to provide the info about pinging (if you’ll ever use it) if the page allows pinging, take a look at the “Post Template” for what you can use.
