# reader comments enabled natively in this theme?

 * I am a new WordPress user, and have only limited coding knowledge. I like your
   relatively minimalist theme, but want to enable comments to my posts. I’ve enabled“
   Allow people to post comments on new articles” under Settings > Discussion, but
   I don’t see a way for readers to do this on my site. Is this built into your 
   theme, or will it take some custom coding to fully enable comments?
 * If so, can you point me to some instructions?

 * Yes, commenting is built into the theme. Comments appear on single post pages.
   I don’t believe you should have to change any settings to enable it. Here is 
   [an example](http://web.kangabell.com/serena/a-simple-orderly-post/) of a post
   with a comment with the Serena theme.
 * Here is some more information on [comment settings in wordpress](http://codex.wordpress.org/Comments_in_WordPress).
