  I want people to leave comments, But the comment box won’t show.

  Instead of clicking the leave a comment, I just want a box to show up for them to type into. Help please.

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

  Hi! The comment box will appear at the bottom of every single post page. For example:

  http://lecia1.wordpress.com/2010/07/27/skulls-and-bones-big-a-logos/

  Otherwise, a theme like P2 would allow for readers to leave comments directly from the homepage.

  The OP’s posts as first presented to a visitor do not actually display a comment box. You have to click the post’s title which take you to another version which DOES have a comment box.

  Can’t really see the point.

  You have your blog set to show only one post per page. The default behavior on the home-page or front page of blogs is to show only the posts. When a reader chooses a post by clicking the title, the view changes to just a single post with the comment box.

  That is part of the structure of all blogs here on WordPress.com except for P2 and Monotone.
