    Please please please help me somebody, I posted two posts in the last two weeks and no one will answer my stupid question because they must think i am too stupid to bother helping;

    This is what I want for any person who comes onto the web page to be able to do (and I mean ANY person, not just people who are signed up to wordpress or anything);

    NAME:

    COMMENT:

    [ENTER]

    and then when they click enter it gets posted onto the wall. Is there a plugin to help me with something like that? Can anyone recommend a place where I might be able to find the HTML code to copy and paste into my own page??

    The WP Wall plugin may do what you want.

    thanks buddy, because that seems like EXACTLY what I wanted – only problem is, it doesn’t seem to work??!

    I went to the website and it said copy and paste this bit of text;

    <?php if (function_exists(‘WPWall_Widget’)) WPWall_Widget(); ?>

    ‘into your sidebar’ but I don’t know what the ‘sidebar’ is – if he means the menu on the side of any given page, I have disabled that to just have a menu across the top (http://44calibreshakespeare.com/forum/). Can’t I just paste that bit of code onto the page HTML and it will put the comment box there??

    thank you so much because you definately gave me the right answer but it stings to be so close and I still can’t quite figure it out!!

    This plugin shows text in a sidebar, i.e. a ‘widgetized’ area. You need the sidebar to show the user’s entries. It might work in one of the other areas in TwentyTen, but I don’t know. The code should go in sidebar.php. I think you will want it just between these two lines:

    <?php endif; // end primary widget area ?>
            </ul>

    ah yes, i am starting to learn a little now, thank you for being so patient with me.

    as you directed i went to the ‘widgetized area’ and found the ‘WP wall widget’ there which I dragged and dropped into the ‘primary widget area’. I also went to the ‘sidebar.php’ html code in editor and copied the ‘<?php if (function_exists(‘WPWall_Widget’)) WPWall_Widget(); ?>’ inbetween the two lines of code you showed me.

    I still don’t understand how to get a comment box onto my desired page, or any other for that matter. Are you sure there is no way i can just use some bit of code, for instance [insert widget area] or [inserte widgetarea ‘Wall x’] or something to put the comment box on an actual page??

    thanks for all the help, i feel like a beggar and you are the only person kind enough to throw me some change 🙂

    Here is a tutorial on adding a widgetized area anywhere in a theme.

    thanks for all the help but i’m still not getting anywhere. Is there anyone I can hire (pay) to do some work on my website? Where do I find someone like that?

    You might find someone by posting on jobs.wordpress.net.
