 * do you have your options set to allow comments and if so do you have a call to
   the comments in your page.php (or index.php) file?

 * I have allowed comments. And this is in my index.php file
 *  “<?php comments_popup_link(‘<span>’.__(‘**0** Comments’).'</span>’,'<span>’.
   __(‘**1** Comment’).'</span>’, ‘<span>’.__(‘**%** Comments’).'</span>’, ‘comments’);?

 * There must be something missing.

 * try replacing your comments.php and comments-popup.php files with files from 
   a different theme just to see if it’ll work. If it does then you know the problem
   is within those files.
 * If it doesn’t work then it’s something inside the call.
 * maybe.

 * I tried that. Still nothing. I think I must have altered or changed something
   small. Any idea. Try clicking comments on [skurfboards.com](http://skurfboards.com)
   it just takes you to a new page.

 * ok… then the next thing that I would try is to copy in the comment code from 
   a known good index.php file.

 * I tried copying comment codes from other templates but doesnt work. It must be
   some setting that I cant see. Any ideas?

 * I have the same problem like yours..
    I tried to compare code by code to comment.
   php file of other theme and i didn’t find any problem.. but still when you hit”
   submit comment” button it goes to index.php..
 * please let me know if you’re able to find answer on this..
 * thanks..
