@jb-skypress,

As I've already mentioned wpDiscuz comment plugin is designed for single post types (posts, pages, etc…). We’re really sorry but there is no way to load wpDiscuz comment form on Archive pages like category, tags, author, etc…

Have you tried just to put this in the code::

$withcomments = "1";
comments_template();
?>

I get all the right comments to each post but unfortunately only standard WP commenting and not wpdiscuz.

Oh, ok, thanks for clarifying! I didn't even consider that comments from multiple posts could get confused if all on the same page.

Hmmm, I may have to look into using iframes or something. My client wants to show multiple posts on a page, and have the comments open in a modal box.

Any creative suggestions to work around the limitations?

Even if you find a way to include the comment section, it’ll not work correctly. The comments will be messed, i.e. the comments from one post will be added under another one. No matter under which post is made a new comment it’ll be added for only one post.

Wpdiscuz commenting works fine on a single post page defined using Elementor (with single post template). However, when I try to use the posts widget in an Elementor archive template (using a loop template for each post), the comments shown are the default Wordpress comments, not wpdiscuz comments.

Any suggestions on how to get the wpdiscuz commment to show in an archive template with loop template for each post?

Thanks!
