    We have a website that is using the Enfold WordPress theme. We have never used the site for blog posts before this week. We have created a page that now will list weekly posts. The posts are shown 1 per page and we are asking people to comment on each post. However, as we added the 2nd post this week, we noticed that the comments from the first week were still listed. It seems that the comments are being created at a page level instead of the post level. Our web designer is not sure how to fix this beyond copying and pasting the previous week’s comments (which he has already done). However, this is not a satisfactory solution as it prevents replies to previous comments and if someone posts a comment on a previous week, it will show on the current week. Is there a solution to this?

    Hey jkgator99!

    Did you or your designer make a blog post template? If yes please refer to this post: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/comments-dont-display-on-posts/#post-127173
    Also have a look at this post: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/comments-dont-display-on-posts/#post-127177

    Please also try to deactivate all plugins, to see if any is causing the issue.

    Best regards,
    Andy

    Hi jkgator99!

    I’m sorry but I’m not really sure what your trying to do there.

    I visited the page you listed and it looks like your using our blog shortcode. When I visited the second page I saw two sets of comments loading. This is because in your post you copied the source code of the comments and pasted it inside the HTML editor.. not really sure why your doing that.

    Also I noticed you changed the permalink of this post to a page, “Students”, which is very weird behaviour also. I think it would be best to just go ahead and delete this post and the “Students” page and take a screenshot and highlight what your trying to do so we can get a better idea.

    EDIT: Perhaps your trying to create a page where it lists all of the comments on your site? If so then the comment shortcode your using is not going to work. It’s designed to only display comments on the specific post or page it’s used on. I think what your wanting is the “Recent Comments” widget which will grab comments from all posts / pages. Or you might be interested in a plugin, https://wordpress.org/plugins/comment-guestbook/.

    Cheers!
