 * Comments can be turned on/off at two locations. Settings>disussion and at the
   post itself either when editing or creating. Can you turn them on when you edit
   the post?

 * In the old posts the comments field shows up, but not in the new ones…
 * Hmmm… still investigating what you said though… trying to turn comments on in
   the more recent posts…

 * It’s working now… although why is a mystery…
 * All I did was switch the avatars on the Settings>disussion page from mystery 
   man to blank… which had nothing to do with the comment field at all…
 * ?
