Can't See Comments
-
Hi, I’ve had comments, and have approved them, but they don’t show on the blog. What to do? Thanks!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

You won’t see comments on your front page, but when you click on an individual post, the comments will show:
http://cherilove.wordpress.com/2011/09/18/books-oh-books-my-beloved/Comments are collapsed on the front page: think about how it would look if each post on your front page had 25 or 50 or more comments. It would take readers lots and lots of scrolling down down down to even find your posts!

I’m having the same problem but even when in the post I can’t see all the comments just a few. For example I can only see 19/59 on this page:

Please help!

Have you checked here? Settings > Discussion
Automatically Closing Comments on Old Posts > http://en.support.wordpress.com/enable-disable-comments/#automatically-closing-comments-on-old-posts
It’s possible to turn comments off automatically after a certain number of days. To do that, go to the Settings → Discussion page and look for Other comment settings on the left. Check the box next to the following option, fill in the number of days, and save.
Automatically close comments on articles older than __ days. -

This page > Settings > Discussion
Discussion settings is where you set up defaults for comments.
We can also override the default settings and enable or disable future comments on any post or page.Please go to Settings > Discussion again, uncheck the option “Automatically close comments on articles older than [__] days”, then scroll down and click Save Changes. Check your posts again after doing that. If some posts aren’t corrected, then you have also disabled commenting on those posts. In that case go to Posts > All Posts, hover under the post title, click Quick Edit, check the options “Allow Comments” and “Allow Pings”, click Update.

I’m not having problems getting comments – all those suggestions are done but people are commenting, I’m approving them and even replying and nothing is showing up. Even comments that have been there for a long time such as on the post I’ve indicated (19/59 – where are the other 40 that were there?) seem to have disappeared when I view them on the actual post but are still there when I go to my manage comments page.

Did you do this or not?

Approving comments which had been marked as spam is a two-step process. First you must un-spam them. THEN you must Approve them. It’s not intuitive to say the least. Make sure you’re doing both those things.

These are not comments that have been marked as spam and WERE showing up in the comments threads but are no longer
