Comments Not Working For Blog Posts

Comments are enabled by default on posts for the Total WordPress theme, however, if they are not displaying here are some things to check to make sure they are properly enabled.

1. Make Sure Comments Are Enabled At Settings > Discussion

First make sure comments are actually enabled by going to Settings > Reading and checking all the various options to make sure they are enabled and setup how you want them to.

2. Make Sure Comments Are Enabled For Posts

If comments were previously disabled you will have to enable them for all old posts. So go to your posts dashboard and quick edit your posts to make sure they are enabled.
