Thanks very much. You gave me the hint I needed to fix the problem. I had a couple of misconceptions that needed to be corrected (the main one being that "discussion" is essentially the same as "comment"). Very much appreciated. My wife is now happily accepting comments again, and things are better at home!! 🙂

Oops. There is one more thing I wanted to say.

For older posts that had comments, if you display the post, the comments display correctly. However, there is no blank comments box in which to add another comment; i.e. all posts including prior ones with comments, show no comments block.

Also, I have read in many places about being able to enable or disable comments for individual posts. I have checked by using the editor on existing posts and the option is not there.

Thanks braddalton and jhguynn for your responses.  Both were very helpful.  I chose braddalton's suggestion for two reasons:

I was able to paste it into the "custom code" function of the Prose theme.  One of my goals is to leave this client with no customized code where any the of source files need to be altered via FTP; i.e. that all customizations are made within the confines of the genesis/prose framework that can be accessed from the dashboard.  So far, I've been able to do that.

It avoids adding another widget/plugin.  Minimizing addons seems to me to be a helpful goal.

Thanks again... your help is much appreciated.

Thanks very much for this suggestion.  It works well.  The only change I needed to make was to add a height specification to the basinger-page class, since the second header is a different height.

Brandon, thanks for your response.

Yes, it is the Jetpack feature that autoposts to Twitter, Facebook, etc.  We did try the Jetpack forum, and there is a lot of comment about people having trouble with the connection not working, and we've tried the suggestions that seemed viable.  I posted my question here just in case there was a specific Genesis issue that may surface.

I guess we need to start over with the Jetpack forum, or find another plugin provided by a third party.

Rick.
