 * Here is a copy of the main Dashboard-Settings-Discussion Panel.I’ve indicated
   which options I have Checked. I hope you are able to make some sense out of it
   and tell me which options to turn on or off. I guess this is what happens when
   you are on the bottom of the learning curve with WordPress.Thanks so much for
   your help.
 * DEFAULT ARTICLE SETTINGS:
 * *Default article settings Attempt to notify any blogs linked to from the article.(
   this is checked)
    *Allow link notifications from other blogs (pingbacks and trackbacks.)(
   this is checked) *Allow people to post comments on new articles (These settings
   may be overridden for individual articles.) (this is checked)

 * *When a comment contains any of these words in its content, name, URL, e-mail,
   or IP, it will be held in the moderation queue. One word or IP per line. It will
   match inside words, so “press” will match “WordPress”.
 * Comment Blacklist
 * *When a comment contains any of these words in its content, name, URL, e-mail,
   or IP, it will be marked as spam. One word or IP per line. It will match inside
   words, so “press” will match “WordPress”.

   your name when you comment on avatar enabled sites. Here you can enable the display
   of avatars for people who comment on your site.

 * Rev Voodoo
    I have checked the comments and discussion boxes for both a post 
   and a page that I have put up on this brand new blog. What I’ve done is I go 
   into the edit function for either a post or a page. Then I click on the screen
   options button (top right hand corner) and check the boxes.But I cannot create
   a comment form for either a post or a page.
 * Thank you

 * Thanks for asking…….I just checked again and I have both boxes checked for comments
   and discussion. This is on the page where I create new posts.
 * I don’t know what I am doing wrong. I hope you can help.
 * Thanks again

 * Thank you for your help.
    I’m so darn new at this stuff. What a humbling experience.
   When you tell me to copy and paste <?php comments_template(); ?> to my template…
   how would I access it?
 * Where or how did you view the code: <?php endwhile; else: ?>
 * Sorry, I know this is probably something simple right?
 * Thanks again
