    I’d be really grateful of some help with this. My first site with WordPress is at http://www.eartheartom.com/blog, and in the poetry blog section I would like each post to automatically display the comments box underneath so people can leave a reply.

    I have enabled comments in the Discussion settings, what else do i need to do?

    Thanks in advance

    Martin

    Hi
    In Either New Page/post in the bottom there are two check boxes under the Discussion have you tried ticking the checkboxes see if this works.

    Cheers,

    <?php global $withcomments; $withcomments = true;
comments_template( '', true ); ?>

    try and add this to the template file of the ‘poetry’ section

    Thanks for the tips.

    Ramith, I had those boxes ticked already, but the reply boxes still weren’t showing until a visitor clicked on the link where it says how many comments there were up to that point – if you see what i mean.

    Alchmyth, I’m a bit new to this, how can I identify which template is being used for the poetry page, as there seem to be lots of different page templates? Also, when i have found it, where exactly should i put the piece of script?

    Many thanks,

    Martin
