    where to put that code i dont know do u know sir?

    <?php comments_number( $zero, $one, $more ); ?>

    where do you want to show the comment number?

    if after the title, than add the code here, possibly within a span for formatting:

    <li><span class="the_day"><?php the_time('d') ?>:</span> <span class="the_article"><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></span> <span class="comments_number"><?php comments_number(); ?></span></li>

    i have tried this one on my archive page template but its not working.
    any other idea or way to show the no of comments.

    Ty @ alchymyth

    the code is working in my test setup;

    possibly check your code as the posted version has a break within these lines:

    <li><span class="the_day"><?php the_time('d') ?>:</span> <span class="the_article"><a
href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></span></li>

    should be:

    <li><span class="the_day"><?php the_time('d') ?>:</span> <span class="the_article"><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></span></li>

    the try to re-apply the suggested code.

    Sorry Alchymyth Sir

    <li><span class="the_day"><?php the_time('d') ?>:</span> <span class="the_article"><a>"><?php the_title(); ?></span> (<span class="comments_number"><?php comments_number(); ?></span>)</a></li>
the code is showing only the result "No comments" in all the posts while some posts have some comments.

    sir can u see the comment no beside the post name on ur system?

    sir can u see the comment no beside the post name on ur system?

    yes – I saw various comments nummbers beside the post titles in my test setup.

    you could alternatively try to use ‘get_comments_number()’ which would just return a number;

    code:

    <li><span class="the_day"><?php the_time('d') ?>:</span> <span class="the_article"><a>"><?php the_title(); ?></span> (<span class="comments_number"><?php echo get_comments_number($post->ID); ?></span>)</a></li>
