   Hi guys,

   Is it possible to add a 'comments' section to certain pages? I've looked at some other threads on this and they don't seem to fit with Broadscope's coding.

   I know technically you shoud use posts, but commenting on some pages would be nice too.

   Thanks

   Hey,
   in page.php replace following line:
   

   get_template_part( 'includes/loop', 'page' );

   with:
   

   get_template_part( 'includes/loop', 'page' );
   
   //wordpress function that loads the comments template "comments.php"
   comments_template( '/includes/comments.php');

   Hi dude,

   That worked nicely (although the comment section was right-aligned for some reason), but it add's it to all pages.

   How can I add it to just certain pages? (basically, about half the pages on my site) and get it aligned properly as well.

   Thanks again

   Hey,

   you can copy the page template, apply the previously mentioned code and save it as an entirely new template (like "template-withcomments.php" - this way you can apply page templates to pages/posts with the same looks but with or without comments.
