  how do i get my comments to appear on my site with the theme i’m using and i received a comment via email, but it’s not appearing in my dashboard – help!

  i’d also like the actual post categories to appear on my blog as i post them – not sure how to do this either…thank you!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I’m seeing a comment appear here:

  http://helloculture.co/2015/03/07/the-best-email-lists-you-should-be-on-daily-culture/

  Are you not seeing it?

  This is dependent on the design of the theme you are using. If the theme isn’t designed to show categories, then would would need to get Custom Design and work with some CSS to override the default theme design.

  Yes you are right, but if you just view helloculture.co without viewing an individual blog post and scroll, you can’t see the comment at all which really bothers me ;)

  Also thanks for the tip about the categories. Maybe I’ll look into revising something on the back end then…

  Thank you!!

  While it is (in theory) possible to show comments on one page, very few (if any) themes do this because it can become really cluttered and hard to read once you get more than 1 or 2 comments on a post.

  Happy I could help!
