I would like to make use of Facebook Comments on a page. It works fine on other posts pages using the default template. However, when I use it on a page that has a template type of “Blank Container No Header No Footer” it will not show up. How can I make it show up? I am using the page as a landing page and I don’t want any header footers on the page which is why I’m using the template type.

Hi there,

By default blank templates don’t display comment.

Because this requires a template change, I’d advise that you setup a child theme. This allows you to make code changes that won’t be overwritten when an X update is released. After your child theme is setup, please review how we recommend making template changes in Customization Best Practices.

Copy template-blank-3.php from framework/views/Stack and put it in the same path inside child theme. Please insert following code :

                  <?php x_get_view( 'global', '_comments-template' ); ?>

Just below this line of code :

            <?php x_get_view( 'global', '_content', 'the-content' ); ?>

For example , if you’re using icon stack, your new code would be :

<?php

// =============================================================================
// VIEWS/ICON/TEMPLATE-BLANK-3.PHP (Container | No Header, No Footer)
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// A blank page for creating unique layouts.
// =============================================================================

?>

<?php x_get_view( 'global', '_header' ); ?>

  <?php x_get_view( 'global', '_slider-above' ); ?>
  <?php x_get_view( 'global', '_slider-below' ); ?>

  <div class="x-main full" role="main">

    <?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

      <article id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>>
        <div class="entry-wrap">
          <div class="x-container max width">
            <?php x_get_view( 'global', '_content', 'the-content' ); ?>
                  <?php x_get_view( 'global', '_comments-template' ); ?>

          </div>
        </div>
      </article>

    <?php endwhile; ?>

  </div>

  <?php x_get_view( 'icon', '_template-blank-sidebar' ); ?>
  <?php x_get_view( 'global', '_footer', 'scroll-top' ); ?>

<?php x_get_view( 'global', '_footer' ); ?>

Hope it helps.
