How Comments Are Displayed

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello. I have a question about comments are displayed. The blog I am concerned about is http://thebookofelijah.wordpress.com/. I am using the theme digitalnature if that matters. What I want to is for comments to be displayed without having to click the comments button. That is I want them to display by default. Is this an option? If so how do I make it happen. I have looked at my settings but I don’t see anything that would do it.

    Any help appreciated.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    No that’s not an option. That’s the way all normal blogs work: you see the comments when you view a single complete post (by clicking on its title or by landing on it via another link), but not on your main page. Your main page showcases your content. Displaying a varying number of comments in between each post would look bad, and the more comments you have the more scrolling you’d need to get to the next post, which isn’t user-friendly at all.

    By the way, the theme you’re using is Mystique.

    I was afraid of that and you are right I am using Mystique! I must have been on one of my other blogs and checked the wrong one for theme.

    Either way I appreciate your answer and clarification of why it works the way it does.
