  Hi, I have a game article and there are frequent comments, in fact I have recently discovered that only the newest 20 are shown on the post itself and even I cannot read more unless I go into the edit comments section. This means that some answers are not seen by people who log on the next day because there were new comments there.

  Is there any way to enable a “show more comments” or “view all comments” link?

  I’m using the “Shann” theme if that matters.

  What does it say on your dashboard Settings->Discussion page?

  ther comment settings Other comment settings Comment author must fill out name and e-mail

  Enable threaded (nested) comments *3* levels deep
  Break comments into pages with *50* top level comments per page and the *last* page displayed by default
  Comments should be displayed with the *newer* comments at the top of each page

  Can you see the more comments thing or do you think the themes may not have this option? Is there a blog I can check to see if the comments work?

  So it seems the Shaan theme may not have an “older comments” link. If so that is disappointing as I like the theme.

  I tested a few different themes and they do have the comments pages. Looks like it is time fir a new theme! *sigh…*
