Gavin, not a dumb question at all — it’s in the Page template, usually page.php or something like that — you just pop the snippet in there and then standard pages (rendered using the ‘page.php’ file) will show the comments box!

Sorry for asking a Dumber question .
But Where exactly do I insert this ?
Is it in the comment.php or index.php of the default theme

Hey, Riyad

Thanks VERY much for this. Really.

I, too, am as dumb as a box of hammers with this kind of stuff. (Although, just quietly, between you’n'me… I really AM as dumb as a box of hammers with all this stuff and you, my friend, are NOT!)

I just reinstalled a site and wanted to transfer all posts to Pages. This sorted it out very quickly and easily in my Theme.

Thanks again,
TheNightOwl

Sergio,

You can check the WP API codex and find the variable that is set when comments are enabled on a page, and then wrap that code-block with a conditional in the template editor, so depending on if you set the comments enabled in the admin interface or not, that code block that renders comments is either shown or not shown.

Most themes support that anyway, so on that page try and disable comments (it’s under the post content box) and see if it disappears.

Hello,
I have enabled it in every page.

Now how is it possible to disable it from 1 page only?

Or maybe the opposite – to enable it on one page only?

Thanks

how do you remove it from themes that already have it?

Thanks man, worked great. Found this post in a Google search. Tried a different one and it didn’t work, your explanation took 45 seconds to implement and I was up and running. Really appreciate it.

Helen,

I went to your website, the layout looks pretty standard (I wouldn’t expect the comment block to screw up the sidebar). Are you sure you added the code in the right place?

Aw, man. The code technically works, but it screws up my side bar. That sucks! Thanks, though.

Ah, after trying a few other potential solutions, this was the one that did the trick. I really needed comments to work on my pages; thanks a bundle!

Thanks, I just didn´t know how to do it. Now I do. (Big relieve, because other advices could´t help me further). Once again, thanks for sharing. Regards, Alexander
