    Hey team! Fantastic theme! Everything is super easy to read and easy to find, so much great functionality. I am very impressed! I just had one quick question that I haven't been able to figure out myself. I am showing full blog posts on the blog page and I would like to be able to have the comments box below each post. At this stage the comments box is only on the single post page. Let me know if you need any more info - I don't have a link to the site as I'm running it with MAMP locally. Your help would be very much appreciated. Thanks :) Em

    Hey Emma! :)

    I'm not sure if that will work good, but you can try to add this:

    <div class="comments-section">
    	  <?php comments_template(); ?>
     </div>   

    into the files in includes/post-templates and remove it from the single.php file

    Cheers :)

    Thanks so much for your response - I have tried pasting that into the includes/post-templates/entry.php under the content-inner closing div tag - but I can't seem to get it to work.  Is there anything I could be missing?

     

    Thanks so much!

    Hey again - It's probably not possible because I don't think WordPress is meant to show multiple comment forms on a single page..and from a user experience stand point, it would be pretty overwhelming is stacks of comments where all showing all for different posts on the same page (could get very long too).

    That's a bummer.  I have had it working previously on a different website, using a different template - however I can't remember how I did it.  I had all the comments in a smaller div that you could scroll through, so it wouldn't take up too much room after each post and if you wanted the read the comments you could just scroll through them... Oh well, not to worry I'll figure something out :)

    Thanks :)
