How can my readers leave a comment from the homepage?
-
From my home page, not the post page, I wan to send readers to the comments. Currently I am using a hyperlink to #respond. Which only seems to work from the post page. How do I enable the reader to leave a comment from the home page.
You will see and example of this on the site when you scroll down to the bottom of the blog.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

The commenting section is only visible on the individual posts pages.
You can split the content of your post by using a More Tag: http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/more-tag/
This way readers have to click through to read the rest of the post. Once they do that the commenting section will be visible at the bottom of the post. You can read more about comments at: http://en.support.wordpress.com/comments

Okay so there is no way to send the reader to leave a comment from the home page. How about if I set the quick link’s address to the post’s page URL and add a /#respond? Would that work?
Also since I have over 250 posts (and most have a #respond link), is there a way to add the more tag to all of them at once? One at a time is certainly not appealing. Not to mention I just read that it can cause issues with the HTML editing if I add the more tag to existing posts. Would this mean a theme change?
I am okay with the more tag idea, but need an easier method. I am seriously disappointed by the commenting function. I need my readers to leave comments quickly and easily.

[RESOLVED] I will just edit the link “leave a comment” with the page’s URL and /#respond….this did the trick!
