Comments don't appear
-
Hi
I have read several threads on this subject and followed leads, but no effect. Comments arrive at my email address and are readable to be as administrator, but do not show up under the post they relate to.Not sure of the WP version, but signed up within the last 2 – 3 weeks, so it will be recent. I am using WordPress direct, IE not externally hosted.
Under Post, I have checked ‘Allow comments’ and ‘Allow pings’.
Under Discussion settings I have checked ‘allow people to post comments on new articles’, but have left unchecked ‘Administrator must approve the comment’ and ‘Comment author must have a previously approved comment’The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there!
I took a look at your comments under Comments on your site’s dashboard and I currently show 4 comments, three from the users you mentioned:
ScreenshotAll of these comments are under your About page:
http://reinholdsite.wordpress.com/about/Currently, your posts don’t have any comments – either approved or pending. Are you expecting to see comments elsewhere? If so, can you tell me from the email notification which post the comments should be located? Once I have that information, I’ll be happy to take a closer look.
Let me know if you have any questions!

I am having the same trouble. The comments are there, but not visible to the viewer until s/he clicks the comments link”
