Showing all comments on the homepage?

I'd like my comments/box to appear under every post on the main page.

My entry.html now looks like this:

<div class="clear"></div>
<section id="#Comments">
{{> pluginHTML}}
</section>
<div class="clear"></div>

The comments appear on each entry if I visit it from the archive but not on the homepage.

Thanks for moving my question and fixing the syntax! 馃檪

I'm assuming you mean the entries page where multiple blog posts are displayed?

I ran into a similar issue and realized including comments on every post on the main page will cause some issues with javascript being loaded mulitple times, etc. You could do what I did on my blog by adding a "Reply" button at the bottom of each post that leads to the post page with comment box?

Hi Ray

Yes that's right.

Thanks for the work-around. Could you share the snippet of your entries.html that makes that work?

I note it even scrolls to the bottom of the post. Nice!

Sure, it's pretty easy -- on the entries page at the end of each entry I put an anchor link to the original entry:

<a href="{{url}}#reply-thread">&nbsp;Reply&nbsp;</a>

...then on the entry.html page itself right above (or below depending on your setup) the comment code I put this:

<section id="reply-thread"></section>

That way clicking the link moves them down to that part like you saw.

Hope this helps. Care to share the URL to your blog?

Take care, Ray
