 * Hello,
 * I ‘d like that comments of a post be juste after the post on the index.php. I’d
   like to show comments on index.php just after each post.
 * But I don’t want to have the form also. I don’t want it on my index.php (too 
   heavy).
 * I ‘ve put this in index.php in the posts loop, mais this doesn’t work at all (
   nothing happends) 🙁 :
 * `<?php comments_template(); ?>`
 * How could I do to show comments of each post on the index.php (but no the form
   to post a comment) please 😕

 * If I put this :
 *     ```
       <?php $wp_query->is_single = true; ?>
       <?php comments_template(); ?>
       ```
   
 * this show the dafult comments template.
 * Could I make another version of comments.php ? Could I use comments-popup to 
   make it ?

 * Mmm, that doesn’t work at all with it, because <?php $wp_query->is_single = true;?
   > show my posts on index.php like they were on the single page. So, it’s bad 
   for long posts :-/
 * Is there anybody who have a solution please ??

 * I also wish to have comments listed after the post on the main page. This would
   be a great feature. somebody please hack 🙂

 * Well, if you read the posts above – the solution has been posted. Of course, 
   as with every hack, there is a trade-off: if you define your main page as “single”
   the more link or excerpt will not work on it.

 * i tried to follow but couldnt get it to work.
    i could possibly do with a more
   simple explanation with where to inject the code and on what php file.
