# mIssing comments block

 * I just started my blog and one person posted a comment. Now the comment block
   is missing and no one else can post a comment. I’ve tried all the nonsense from
   the forms such as checking to see if comments is enabled, etc. Really understanding
   what the reviews meant when they said WordPress is a coders tool not a writer’s
   tool.

 * can you post more details such as the name of your theme and possibly a link 
   to a post or page where the comment box is missing?
 * do you have comments enabled?
 * _**dashboard – settings – discussion**_
 * _**dashboard – posts – all posts**_ – _quickedit _below each post title – tick_‘
   allow comments’_
 * what are your setting there?

 * To answer your questions in order:
    When I checked to see which theme is selected
   all I can find is a place to change the theme and noting that will tell me which
   is selected. From my blog log in there is no place labeled Dashboard. I can select“
   Manage my blog” where there is still nothing labeled Dashboard. I selected Blog
   Admin which does bring up a side bar call “Dashboard” from that point on your
   directions work and YES, comments are enabled.
 * Did not understand the quickedit until I discovered by accident that it comes
   up with a mouse over. Allow comments was checked already.
 * here is the URL for my blog [http://aflaude.wordpress.com](http://aflaude.wordpress.com)
