comments option not appearing

Hey Community,

I have instilled a custom design, and I noticed that my comments option is not appearing. When I switch to the defualt them, comments options are available. I compared the code in the loop and my custom theme has the same code:


<p class="postmetadata">Posted in
<?php the_category(', ') ?>
|
<?php edit_post_link('Edit', '', ' | '); ?>
<?php comments_popup_link('No Comments »', '1 Comment »', '% Comments »'); ?>
</p>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<div class="navigation">
<div class="alignleft">
<?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Previous Entries') ?>
</div>
<div class="alignright">
<?php previous_posts_link('Next Entries &raquo;') ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php else : ?>
<h2 class="center">Not Found</h2>
<p class="center">Sorry, but you are looking for
something that isn't here.</p>
<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . "/searchform.php"); ?>
<?php endif; ?>

The issue must be somewhere in my custom code, for the default works. Any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks,
Orion
