 * I’m still new to WP, and don’t know how to show comments on either a page or 
   a blog post. I’ve tried enabling comments thru the dashboard without success.
   Here’s a post: [http://temp.indianhillsummer.org/sharing-your-stories/](http://temp.indianhillsummer.org/sharing-your-stories/)

 * Possibly because you have the comments plugin from Facebook (note sure). That
   appears on both the links cited by you. Just to know if the comments work (if
   you have set them right at your dashboard), please switch your theme to Twenty
   Twelve.

 * Krishna, I switched themes to 20-12 and did not see a difference. Can I send 
   you a snapshot file of how my dashboard is set? Or is there an example of the
   right settings online?

 * See [http://codex.wordpress.org/Comments_in_WordPress](http://codex.wordpress.org/Comments_in_WordPress)
 * If that does not seem to work, try deactivating your FB comments.

 * I found that deactivating FB plugin made the wordpress comments come back. So
   I guess there’s no way to have FB comments and WordPress comments at the same
   time?
 * thanks
