Is there something else that I need to do to get my WP Wall Guestbook page to work? I have published the page and added a comment to my wall so that I could test it and it isn't showing up on the page. It says some themes will have to be modified to show the comments on that page… how do I do that???

Hi Amy, I had the same problem. There were no leads or instructions explaining theme modifications, along with the WP Wall plugin. My blog didn't come with a page template, which probably explains why the comment tag didn't show. Even though, I chose [yes] to show comments, nothing happen on my pages. But the post pages work fine.
After searching hours-after-hours on google, I finally found something that works! I've put this snippet just above my ?php get_footer in my page.php or page template. You'll have to copy and paste in the right location. So, keep playing around with it, if it don't look right. If you're using WP Cache plugin, don't forget to clear it to see live results. Visit my blog to see my WP Wall, at jokerpokerblog.com. Here's the link to the snippet I found: http://www.breakitdownblog.com…..ress-page/
Remember, everyone page.php is different. You might not see . My page.php ends with ?php endwhile; endif; ? Then, I add the snippet but the footer code is at the bottom. Good luck!
The Grace theme family is always getting little tweaks here and there so that is why some people might have different files. it is always good practice on anything internet related to keep up to date with downloads.
Also don't forget the main golden rule of plugins…. incompatibility!!!!!

Thanks for sharing that.
