Comments and Summary View

  • I have two issues I need help with please.

    1. I am having problems getting the comment boxes to appear under each post of my site. I have the comments enabled under settings but they don’t appear on the site.

    I’ve checked that it’s not an issue with any plugin. I’ve deactivated them all and the problem is still there

    2. I can’t get the posts to show on the homepage as summaries. I’ve checked the correct box in the settings to show just a summary and not the full post however the full posts still show.

    I’m using theme: Fresh Ink Magazine
    The url is https://www.coolbloobridge.com

    Thanks!

  • Hi, @khamilton.

    1. I am having problems getting the comment boxes to appear under each post of my site. <snip> I’ve checked that it’s not an issue with any plugin.

    Hmm, from what I can tell on this end, you’re using a “Facebook Comments for WordPress” plugin which is hiding the normal WordPress comments-related elements from view (something which would not be entirely unexpected given the nature of the plugin itself).

    2. I can’t get the posts to show on the homepage as summaries. I’ve checked the correct box in the settings to show just a summary and not the full post however the full posts still show.

    If you mean the “For each article in a feed, show” option under Settings → Reading, then that only affects your RSS feeds; as far as which one appears on your home page, that’s determined by the theme.

    So, generally speaking, to make this change would require editing your theme’s index.php file and replacing <?php the_content(); ?> with <?php the_excerpt(); ?> instead.

    I’ll have to check on #2 with the theme.

    As far as #1 is conncerned, I diabled the FB comment plugin but nothing changed as far as allowing me to see any comment boxes appearing after the posts?

    Any other suggestions?
