Generically speaking:
That’s bizarre, you shouldn’t have to edit any files for comments to work. Have you confirmed that comments are enabled for that post?
While logged in, visit

On the top right should be a dropdown menu titled “Screen Options”, click that and make sure “Discussion” is checked.
Once that is checked scroll down and make sure that “Allow Comments” is enabled. If it’s not save and update that post.
More specifically for your theme:
That’s a commercial theme and we don’t support those here. You may get better (specific) support from the theme author. Part of what you paid for was support and you may as well use that option.
I am having the same issue. I posted and several people have tried commenting but they are not going through. Somehow, one comment went through but many others have not. I tried a test and it’s not working from my end either.
Go to admin > settings > discussion
Hi Leastlikely,
You should try contacting the author of the theme for assistance. Their profile page is here: http://themeforest.net/user/epicera and you can use the contact form there to get in touch.
Hope that get you going.
Kind of same problem here, my trackbacks/pingbacks won’t appear in the comments field — but they are still counted.
Since I can only find 5-10 years old posts about this issue, I tried to figure it out myself, but no luck so far :/

I’m using a theme called Reason and I am new to WordPress.
My comments won’t appear. See: http://leastlikely.net/?p=90#comment-10
I’ve made numerous test comments.
They do appear when I make no changes to the theme but I don’t like the look of them and I want to utilize the Jetpack.Me comment features (login with twitter & facebook). I installed the plugin and at first nothing happened so I edited page.php — now the add a comment box shows up and allows you to log in with wordpress, twitter, or facebook, but any comments added don’t appear (no approval need or anything)
Please help me!
This is my code:
