You can add comments on a per-page or per-post basis. In the post editor, look up in the upper right-hand corner for "Screen Options." Make sure "discussion" is checked. Then scroll down and you'll see a checkbox for allowing comments.

Firebug will light the way to understanding the secrets of the Internet!I have no clue why it wouldn't be working in that theme. Did you try disabling your plugins?

Firebug will light the way to understanding the secrets of the Internet!Hi Dorian, the only plugin I had enabled was Genesis Simple Hooks, which I just disabled and still no comments showing.
Can you post a link?

Firebug will light the way to understanding the secrets of the Internet!What about on a post - are you able to open comments on a post? I'm going to send up a flare because this is probably something totally obvious that I'm just missing because I'm not super-familiar with this theme. Are you using bbPress on this site?

Firebug will light the way to understanding the secrets of the Internet!To me, it looks like the problem isn't necessarily that a person can't leave a comment, it's that the link to do so is missing. I believe if you use Genesis Simple Edits you can customize what shows up above and below the page, including the link to post comments. You could also do that by adding stuff to functions.php but the plugin is probably easier.

Firebug will light the way to understanding the secrets of the Internet!I have just install that plugin, what code should I use and where should I add it?
You don't really need to use code - just go into Genesis > Simple Edits. The Post Info section is before the content and the Post Meta comes after the content.

Firebug will light the way to understanding the secrets of the Internet!You know what? I bet there's a page template in that theme that removes the post info and post meta sections, in which case the Genesis Simple Edits plugin isn't going to help. I'm sorry, I don't have any more time just at the moment to look at this, but I'll be back in a couple of hours in case you still are having issues.

Firebug will light the way to understanding the secrets of the Internet!Hi Dorian, it's 3:45am for me over here in the UK so I'm off to bed 🙂 hopefully there will be a solution here for me when I get up later.
Thank you
Kenn, you tried using Genesis Simple Edits, right? If so, am I correct that you do not see ANY of the items you inserted with Genesis Simple Edits when you're looking at that page?

Firebug will light the way to understanding the secrets of the Internet!By default NONE of the official Child Themes by StudioPress does modify the comment display to "none" etc.
It must be something on your install.Just to clarify: comments are enabled in WordPress > Settings > Discussion? And also the display of comments is enabled for Posts & Pages in Genesis > Theme Settings?
Did you make any modifications in your child theme's functions.php file --- added any snippets or something?
Since your blog post DOES show the comment section I assume the page display is still disabled in Genesis or there is any other modification active?
I don't believe that I am doing anything or running anything out of the norm, see screenshot below.

I'm more than happy to give admin privileges to my site, if that would expedite the problem.
