How to display leave reply box on home page
-
I have 2 pages. At the bottom of the welcome pages there is a big box to leave a reply. At the bottom of the home page there is no such box. I want the reply box at the bottom of all the pages, but can’t figure out how to do. Please help
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

By default the front page of the blog is the only dynamic page in the blog on which published posts displayed. It does not have a comment box because each post on it has one.

Pages http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ we bloggers create are static and are for content that rarely changes. They sit outside of the blog structure and you cannot post to multiple pages in any blog. There is only one main page for posts http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/ in a blog and all posts will display on the main blog page. There is no way to exclude posts from the main posts (blog) page.
The front page of the blog by default will display your posts (not pages) http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/ in reverse chronological order, with the most recently published post on top.
If you do not want all the posts to show on the front page, then you can create a static front page “Welcome” for your site and a “Blog” page for posts.
Choice 1 static front page
Choice 2 running page for all posts on front page
Which do you choose? It’s one or the other.
If you choose a static front page then you have to create two pages as I said above. After you do that you go to > Settings > Reading http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/ and make the designation change and click “save changes”. -
Every WordPress.com blog has comments open on all pages and posts by default.
This page > Settings > Discussion
Discussion settings is where you set up defaults for comments.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/discussion-settings/We can also override the default settings and enable or disable future comments on any individual post or page.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/enable-disable-comments/Note: By default, new blogs on WordPress.com will have the Discussion hidden. You can reveal it by clicking on Screen Options http://en.support.wordpress.com/screen-options/ on the top right corner of your Admin page, and checking the box that says Discussion so the module is included. http://en.support.wordpress.com/modules/#list-of-modules
You go to Pages > All Pages, hover over the page title, click Quick Edit, uncheck the option “Allow Comments”, click Update. That’s all. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/remove-comments-section-and-posting-format?replies=6

Thanks timetheif! For your detailed replies. I’ve since realized the difference between my most recent post displaying on the home page and the post’s own page, which does have a space to leave a comment. At this point I am happy with the way it all looks and works.
Have a great day
