How to Enable the Comment Section in EazyDocs

If you use the EazyDocs plugin for your documentation site, you may notice that the comment section doesn’t appear even when your standard WordPress discussion settings are turned on. In this guide, I’ll walk you through the steps needed to fix that setup and enable regular comments at the bottom of your documentation pages.

Problem Overview

Documentation pages created with EazyDocs may not show a working comment section by default. Even though EazyDocs includes its own built-in “Feedback” module, many site admins still prefer the standard WordPress comment section because it allows for more detailed reader discussions.

Difference Between Feedback and Comment Sections

EazyDocs offers two main ways to collect user input:

• Feedback Section: Designed for simple interactions, such as upvotes, downvotes, or general satisfaction metrics.
• Comment Section: Allows users to post detailed responses and take part in threaded discussions at the end of a document.

How to Enable the Comment Section in EazyDocs

To show the full comment area on your documentation pages, follow these steps:

1. Log in to your WordPress Dashboard.
2. Navigate to EazyDocs > Settings.
3. Click on the General tab.
4. Find the Doc Footer Elements section.
5. Toggle the Comment option to enable it.

Troubleshooting: Comment Section Visibility

If the comment section still doesn’t appear after changing the setting above, double-check that WordPress comments are enabled globally in your site settings. Also make sure your active theme supports comments for custom post types, and confirm that the documentation post type has comment support enabled in the plugin settings.

Conclusion

Turning on the comment section in EazyDocs is pretty straightforward once you know where the setting lives. Once you understand the difference between the Feedback module and the standard comment section, it becomes much easier to manage how visitors interact with your docs. If you’re still running into issues, I’d check for theme-level overrides or plugin conflicts that might be affecting comment visibility.
