I am using ethos and trying to set up a discussion comment area at the bottom of a posting in a page. I want to use cornerstone and am having problems doing the above. If I do not use cornerstone, I am able to set up the discussion comment area. I want to know how to set up the discussion comment area using cornerstone. Perhaps it is not possible? Help
Hello @rherhood,
Thanks for asking. 
You can’t design the comment area section using Cornerstone. If you would like to styling changes, then you need to use CSS for that. I am sharing few resources that you can take a look if you would like to learn CSS.
I recommend you to watch following video that will help you to get started with CSS.
Sometimes it can get a bit difficult to find out the right selector to be able to write the required CSS codes. A handy tool that can help you in this is Google Chrome dev tools. I am sharing the resource that you can refer to get started with dev tools.

Thanks.
I think they are using cornerstone for this page https://cabinfreedom.com/. When you click on the title for each post it takes you to another page with the full content article which has the comment section at the bottom. Perhaps they are using cornerstone for the shortened page and link it to the full article at https://cabinfreedom.com/guide-relaxing-outdoors-cabin/.then link it to a non-cornerstone page with the comment section at the bottom . Would I be correct in my assumption?
Hi Robert,
No, that’s not it. This page (https://cabinfreedom.com/) is a Blog index page (Posts page), you can set a page to be the Blog index page under Settings > Reading > Posts page
Posts page will be automatically populated by your posts/articles, Posts page cannot be edited in Cornerstone or any content builder or even on the WordPress classic text editor.
While this (https://cabinfreedom.com/guide-relaxing-outdoors-cabin) is called single posts page. You can edit this on Cornerstone or WordPress classic text editor, single posts page will have a comment section at bottom automatically, unless the user hides it intentionally.
On another hand, standard pages won’t have a comment section by default, but you can enable it, but you need to use the default or any of the Layout template (https://prnt.sc/jlfoxe).
Then enable the Allow Comment in the Discussion section (https://prnt.sc/jlfp8x).
Hope this shed some lights,
Cheers!
