Yup, all I had to do was add this line to my page.php file:

<?php comments_template(); ?>

Thanks very much for your help.

Patrick

Thanks! That sounds like just the thing. I’ll try it.

Here’s another page I created just now with the “pages” tab just to be sure I wasn’t hallucinating:

https://patrick.net/wp/?page_id=8

Still doesn’t allow comments. Hmmm. Bug in WordPress, or maybe there’s something I don’t get about allowing anonymous comments. Advice appreciated very much.

Patrick

Thanks, but there is definitely nowhere to add comments on a static page, which I did create with the “pages” tab. I definitely checked “allow comments” but not “allow pings”. Here’s an example on my own site:

https://patrick.net/wp/?page_id=4

How would a reader add comments? I see no button or box for them. I’m on Firefox 1.0 and WordPress 1.5.

Patrick

I just installed 1.5 and everything works great except that comments take 30 to 45 seconds to post.

I’m betting it is something trying to make a network call out and the ISP is blocking it, resulting in a timeout. No difference if I include links in the comments or not.

Any advice appreciated. [email protected]
