[MountainstarSWE]

Hello

We would like to activate comments on some pages. Using the template Blank - Container Header, Footer

How do we do that?

We can’t get it to work.

Hey Sofia,

Thanks for writing around! To show comments on (Container | Header, Footer) page template, you need to create a new file template-blank-1.php and paste the following code inside:

<?php

// =============================================================================
// VIEWS/RENEW/TEMPLATE-BLANK-1.PHP (Container | Header, Footer)
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// A blank page for creating unique layouts.
// =============================================================================

?>

<?php get_header(); ?>

  <div class="x-container max width offset">
    <div class="x-main full" role="main">

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

        <article id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>>
          <?php x_get_view( 'global', '_content', 'the-content' ); ?>
		  <?php x_get_view( 'global', '_comments-template' ); ?>
        </article>

      <?php endwhile; ?>

    </div>
  </div>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

Then via FTP upload the file to your Child Theme in /x-child/framework/views/renew/ directory. You’ll need to create the renew folder if you don’t see in there.

Then via WordPress admin panel make sure to enable comments (see screenshots)

Let us know how this goes!
