# Enabling Comments

 * Hi all,
 * I am having trouble enabling comments on my posts and pages. I have selected 
   all the necessary checkboxes on all pages and posts under ‘Discussions’ in order
   to allow for comments. I have also downloaded Disqus in an attempt to use a plugin
   to allow for comments, but nothing is working!
    No comment section is coming 
   up on my live site!
 * Is there anything that I’m missing/doing wrong?
    Is there any way to troubleshoot
   this?
 * Please help!
    Thanks Sammy

 * Hi Sammy,
 * Are comments enabled in the site wide Settings? If you click on Discussion under
   the Settings menu item there should be an option there. What theme are you using?
   Do you have a URL to the site that we can review?

 * Hi Sammy,
 * Looks like you are using Genesis theme. There is a setting under Theme Options
   for Genesis for Comments and Trackbacks. Can you check if ‘Enable Comments’ is
   checked there?

   Settings.
