# Enable comments

 * I want to enable comments on the custom content type I created. But there is 
   no “discussion” block on my “Edit item” page. Also, if I open Settings page of
   my custom content type, I hoped to see there some checkbox for adding that “discussion”
   block. But I don’t find anything like that.
    Maybe there is a way for putting“
   comment_status”=”open” for all items, but I can’t find a place where I can do
   that. Please help.

 * Just found it myself. There is a “Enable Comments” checkbox under Settings->Advanced
   section.
    So I need only to add `<?php comments_template('', true); ?>` in my
   single_recipe.php file (recipe is my post type name). Hope this will also help
   someone else.

 * Yes, this is mentioned when you edit your custom content type definition in the
