    I have a self hosted wordpress and I can't seem to activate comments, even when I register myself as a new user under a new name it won't let me comment, so nobody else can either..

    Any ideas folks???

    Kindly

    Login to your admin panel and go to;
    • Options > Discussion

    Then make sure that the options listed below have ticked;
    • Allow people to post comments on the article
    • Comment author must fill out name and e-mail

    You may also activate the option below;
    • Allow link notifications from other blogs (pingbacks and trackbacks.)

    Then "Update Options". Also, your template has to support commenting. I mean, there should be a comment form visible under your posts.
