 * I just got my page set up and I am sure I overlooked something. As admin I can
   click on the page and a comment option will open. However, when a visitor tries
   to click to comment the page is not clickable. Usually I can find these things
   but for this I am feeling quite inept. Thanks in advance.

 * John,
 * Have you checked your settings in Settings -> Discussion (…/wp-admin/options-
   discussion.php). There you can manage who can comment on your posts and pages.
 * Alternatively, when you’re editing a page, click screen options in the top right
   hand of the window. Then click/tick _Discussion_, then scroll to the bottom of
   the page and you should see a check box that says _Allow Comments_, tick it and
   save.
 * Grant.
