comments box on the actual blog page

Hi, using Shapely theme. Is it possible to have a comments box show up after each blog post on the actual blog pag. At the moment a viewer can only add a comment if they click on a particular blog post and go to that specific page.

I’d like people to be able to just comment whilst there are on the blog page

thanks

Hey there,

I hope you are well today and thank you for your question.

Unfortunately, what you’d like to achieve would require modification of theme files, this is considered an advanced customization request and is beyond the scope of support provided.

If you are not a developer then you can consider customizations offered by Envato,

Hi,

You can try this solution, http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-themes/how-to-show-comments-on-the-homepage-of-your-wordpress-theme/ read the comments too, they have some solutions too.

Edit all the things on a child theme, the files you need to edited are inside template-parts folder in your theme, copy that folder and paste that in child theme and customize it according to your needs.

Let us know,

Thanks,

Hi Laranz, tried that link before seeing your second paragraph. Now I have this message popping up

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘<’ in /home2/videoart/public_html/edventurerus/wp-content/themes/shapely/functions.php on line 380

Can anyboy please tell me how to now access the functions.php file (as I can’t through the WP platform, find the line 380 and fix the ‘<’

thanks
