Show Comments and Form on Front Page

  • Hey guys… after searching for days I thought id post a question. What I need is pretty simple. I need on my front page a post(only one post) with comments and a comment form beneath. I cant seem to find the solution. I had a solution that work in which I modified the wp comment-template but then my comment ratings plugin would work. I need the front page to look just like the post page. I could just tell wordpress to use a different page for the homepage but thats not a great solution. So in summation I need on the front page:

    Post
    Comments
    Comment Form

    If you click the post, the page that it takes you to is exactly what I need. The site is secretanonymous.com. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Mike

    Okay… shortly after posting I found an answer to this. All you need to do is insert <?php comments_template(); ?> in your index.html file. First you must set the $withcomments variable to 1. This is done simply by adding <?php $withcomments=1 ?> to the top of the index.html file. That worked for me. Reference is the Include Tags in the Codex
