Show comments on home page posts

what do you mean by showing comments on each of the post, do you mean comment count? if you want to show the comment count you can use this code on your theme

<?php comments_popup_link('No Comments', '1 Comment', '% Comments'); ?>

or are you looking for something different?

on the home page, you may have to use something like:

<?php
$withcomments = 1; // force comments form and comments to show on front page
comments_template();
?>

to show the comments input form and comments.

Thanks for this— came in handy just today. Lots of users don’t want to click more than once and it’s nice they can see what’s already commented right below the post.

ALCYMYTH YOU JUST SAVED MY LIFE

i’ve been wandering the forums and the internets for a while trying to figure out how to display comments on index.php. and it was just one little variable!

thank you so much for the wisdom

I too have been wandering for HOURS and trying what feels like a zillion different functions.
$withcommnents = 1; is exactly what I needed
If it helps any future searches find this post I’m trying to display a list of comments for just one category

Where do I insert this code to get it to work please, I am a newbie!! Which index.php file and where at in the file

Thanks a bunch

anyone able to help me? Love you all!!

Please help!! LOL my wife is on my A** to get this site done!!

@alchymyth

Bloody Hell, thank you so much! The $withcomments = 1; is what I was missing. Where did you find that?

Thanks!

OMGosh this was exactly what i needed. Only problem, where is the code for making the height auto…it’s all overlapping bc it’s only as high as the post and not making any room for the comments

just noticed that my only issue is in safari. any helpful hints?

Thanks alchymyth, I’ve been looking for that everywhere.

Thanks muchly for this ?? Just what I needed x
