Hi all,

can somebody please explain me how i can activate the 'add comment' link on my blog pages?
i've installed (activated) the comment module and i have set the acces rights for the concerning userroles.

appearently the 'add comment' link shows up for nodes (see: http://www.framebyframe.be/nl/node/5)

but i can't get the same effect on this page: http://www.framebyframe.be/nl/blog

if anyone could point me in the right direction for clearing this one up?

thx

Check http://yourdomain.com/admin/content/types/blog, and check if comments are disabled for this content type...

Are you using views to build the blog page? I can't tell because it's not letting me access that link.

Check your theme, maybe you've got a specific content type template file that blocks the comment section.

I got confused because the content type setting for comments was to allow them but I didn't notice that on the individual node I was looking at it was still disabled. Maybe that helps.

I'm posting in this old thread, since this seems to be the issue I'm having. Drupal 7. My theme is Danblog (child theme of Danland). If a comment has been posted, then a link "X comments" is added to the links area on the /blog page, but I want there to be an "Add comment" link when there are not yet comments on the post.

I think I've narrowed down the code that is causing this, in node.tpl.php:

 <div class="content clearfix"<?php print $content_attributes; ?>>
    <?php
      hide($content['comments']);
      hide($content['links']);
      print render($content);
    ?>
  </div>

  <?php
    if ($teaser || !empty($content['comments']['comment_form'])) {
      unset($content['links']['comment']['#links']['comment-add']);
    }
    // Only display the wrapper div if there are links.
    $links = render($content['links']);
    if ($links):
  ?>
    <div class="links">
      <?php print $links; ?>
    </div>
  <?php endif; ?>

  <?php print render($content['comments']); ?>

If someone could tell me what to comment out, or add, or whether I'm not even warm, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.
