Worked like a charm.

Unfortunately the new code didn’t make any difference. The sidebar appears on the main blog and static pages but not on the Archived or Recent Post pages. Any other ideas? I really do appreciate the help! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Dynamic Sidebar on Single posts](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dynamic-sidebar-on-single-posts/) * Thread Starter [tortuga](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tortuga/) * (@tortuga) * [15 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/dynamic-sidebar-on-single-posts/#post-1525859) * Thanks for the quick response esmi! * I’ve pasted the [Sidebar](http://wordpress.pastebin.com/aHDLF6D3) in the pastebin for perusal but the call to the _dynamic sidebar_ is already in it. * The dynamic sidebar _does _show up on the main blog posts and in the other Pages on the website. It just doesn’t show up when you click on a Recent Post or an Archives link. What would be causing that difference? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Comments work on Pages but not on Posts](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-work-on-pages-but-not-on-posts/) * Thread Starter [tortuga](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tortuga/) * (@tortuga) * [15 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-work-on-pages-but-not-on-posts/#post-1508401) * EUREKA! This is the result I wanted. _Thank you, thank you, esmi_! You’ve made my day! I really appreciate your sticking with me through the whole thing. * whew! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Comments work on Pages but not on Posts](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-work-on-pages-but-not-on-posts/) * Thread Starter [tortuga](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tortuga/) * (@tortuga) * [15 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-work-on-pages-but-not-on-posts/#post-1508395) * I switched the posts per page to 1 and that definitely helps. Still I would prefer that the comment fields show up on the default page instead of readers having to click the Comment link to go to the Single page. Can I make the Comment Form exist inside the Loop on the index template without causing havoc? If so, what line(s) of code would I add/change and where? * Thanks again esmi for all your help! I really appreciate it. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Comments work on Pages but not on Posts](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-work-on-pages-but-not-on-posts/) * Thread Starter [tortuga](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tortuga/) * (@tortuga) * [15 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-work-on-pages-but-not-on-posts/#post-1508386) * Thanks esmi for sticking with me on this. I had tested the plugin and theme change and that made no difference which is why I initially assumed I must have accidentally damaged the code while I was customizing. * After much examination I copied a line of code from right under the post title where a digit shows how many comments there are. I had not realized it was clickable because it was so small. So I embellished the copied version with text so that it’s large enough to click and pasted that below the content in the loop. That link goes to the single page where the comments _do_ show. Previously I didn’t even know what the single page looked like because I could never get there. * Is it possible to make the single page be the default view rather than the multiple- post view? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Comments work on Pages but not on Posts](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-work-on-pages-but-not-on-posts/) * Thread Starter [tortuga](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tortuga/) * (@tortuga) * [15 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-work-on-pages-but-not-on-posts/#post-1508372) * I’ve put the [comments.php file](http://wordpress.pastebin.com/fMRUYe2r) into the pastebin.

My bad. I accidentally pasted the single.php code from the default theme in the prior posting.

Here is a link to the content of the [single.php file](http://wordpress.pastebin.com/kQCs4dZW): * I’m thinking, however, that the problem isn’t going to be in this file because I had never touched it until today. When I started editing the theme for my site back in January the Comments did work. The files I have edited are the index, header, footer, page, sidebar, and style but that’s it. Does that give any hints? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Comments work on Pages but not on Posts](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-work-on-pages-but-not-on-posts/) * Thread Starter [tortuga](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tortuga/) * (@tortuga) * [15 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-work-on-pages-but-not-on-posts/#post-1508298) * Thanks esmi. The single.php template does already include about 3 lines above endwhile. * Any other ideas? * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [One admin login for three blogs](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/one-admin-login-for-three-blogs/) * Thread Starter [tortuga](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tortuga/) * (@tortuga) * [15 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/one-admin-login-for-three-blogs/#post-1311228) * Thanks for the information Ipstenu! From your comments I assume that Multisite is now becoming an integrated part of regular WP. If that is the case I’ll wait a little bit until it has become well-established and then upgrade. I’m not very daring where WP is concerned. * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [One admin login for three blogs](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/one-admin-login-for-three-blogs/) * Thread Starter [tortuga](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tortuga/) * (@tortuga) * [15 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/one-admin-login-for-three-blogs/#post-1311226) * Thank you Ipstenu for the insight. I’ll keep an eye out for Multi-Site. * runnycustard, I didn’t solve the problem. For now I have it set up with a main blog and two sub-blogs on the same domain and I just log into each of the blogs separately. It’s ugly and I don’t recommend it, although it functions. But I really couldn’t make heads or tails out of the WordPressMU codex which is written for an entirely different audience making it nearly impossible for a nube like me to sort out what about using WordPressMU mattered to me and what didn’t apply to my small-potatoes situation. (Way too much information!) It read as total overkill at every turn so I abandoned the idea. I hope Multi-Site turns out to be more along the scale of what I need and can comprehend.
