How do I make comments and "Likes" show up at the bottom of each of my blog posts? Right now, the theme I'm using has only a bubble at the top displaying the number of comments that have been made. You have to click on the bubble to see the actual comments and Likes, but I'd prefer they show up at the bottom of each post automatically.
The blog I need help with is furthermoreandsoforth.wordpress.com.
The way the comments function is coded into the core of WordPress and we cannot change this. Unless you use P2, a twitter-like theme, comments are collapsed on the front page of your blog where our posts are "showcased". By clicking the post title or the comments link the posts on the front page open on their own page where all comments display.
The reason for this structure is that in a new blog one does not have many posts or comments. In an established blog if the comments did not collapse on the front page it would become a mile long in no time flat and page loading time is a page ranking factor. We have only seconds before visitors refuse to wait and click out.
Thanks for your explanation!
You're welcome and best wishes with your blog.
