    I am helping a client develop her site using the Lifestyle Theme.  The site is currently at http://174.120.150.219/~denyse/rx4fun.

    I have noticed that comments do not seem to be working on this theme and I can't figure out why.

    I have enabled comments site-wide, yet I do not get the edit box OR the comment title "Speak Your Mind."

    I have re-uploaded all comment-related PHP files from a fresh download of WordPress, and have even re-uploaded comments.php to the Genesis parent theme.  Nothing changes.

    I have overwritten the Genesis comments.php with the same file from one of the default WP themes, and the comment box and title appear, with an error message, as seen here: http://screencast.com/t/f4rq5C858Ag

    Can anyone please help me?

    You do not need to do all of these. Genesis child themes work out of the box.

    1. Make sure you've enable comment from the Genesis settings page.

    2. Make sure you've enable people to comment from Settings > Discussion

    3. You probably cannot see the form because you are logged in. Tried view the site when logged out (usually I just use different browser)
