 * I am new to word press and just created my first blog entry. My link is below
   and I do not understand why comments cannot be left. I have it setup to add comments.
   What am i missing? Is there a special plug in that needs to be added to allow
   comments?

 * hi,
    no, you just need to go to: you dashboard >> scroll down to Setting >> then
   click on “Discussion”, finally tick >> Allow people to post comments on new articles

 * Interesting, I tried that, but no luck 🙁
 * Also, I wanted my post to show up with a summary view and that setting hasn’t
   been taken either…

 * here’s some codes that you may add to summary view
 * #show date
    `<?php the_time(get_option('date_format')); ?>`
 * #shock number of comments
    `<?php comments_popup_link(__('Add Comment'), __('
   One Comment'), __('% Comments'));?>`
 * #Number of views
 *     ```
       <?php
       $values = get_post_custom_values("pvc_views"); echo $values[0]; ?>
       ```
   
 * and if you don’t have comment on your template then, this code is missing:
 *     ```
       <div id="comments">
       <?php comments_template('', true); ?>
       	</div>
       ```

 * I see. I have a template that was created by my web designer. Where do I paste
   this code into the template? Can I paste it anywhere?
