Hello and welcome to WP Clinik


Hi all I just saw a question on comments in WP it seems like a common one so I will answer it for you all in case there is any doubt

How to enable comments in your pages or posts

Step one

Go to page or post and look at the top of your screen to the right like the image below


Look to the right of the image at the top and you will see the tab called

SCREEN OPTIONS - CLICK ON THIS AND YOU WILL SEE THIS WINDOW APPEAR



Check the boxes that say - COMMENTS AND DISCUSSION

They are to the left on the second row

CLOSE THIS BOX AND THEN GO TO THE BOTTOM OF YOUR PAGE OR POST AND YOU WILL SEE THIS


Check the boxes that say allow comments an tack backs and you all done

Hope this helps

Barry

Brilliant! Thank you!!!

I did all this and enabled comments in the quick edit, still no comment box. I am in the Omega theme on wordpress. Anyone knows the solution to this?

Good info, but add to that the "allow comments" in the quick edit part of the post or page. without this, the comment box will not show.

Thank you Barry

Thanks for the information to share with others. I have seen this question a few times, so hopefully it will assist those that need the help.

Thanks for the reminder Barry it will help those who do not know and people like me that can have blank moments

Thanks for the share :)
