Simply create a guestbook for Wordpress
Apr 23, 2009 WordPress
It is very useful to have a guestbook. We could make it by using Pages in WP.
My WP Version is 2.7.1 right now. Please check your Wordpress Version before you read this article.
1. Add a new page, Give a name of this page and write something to welcoming your visitors.
2. Remember to tick Allow comments
3. Publish this page
4. Now you have a GUESTBOOK in your index page. However, People cannot leave comment for your guestbook. I think this is a bug for WP. You need to modify page.php to active this function.
Use Editplus, UltraEdit or other Editor to open the page.php ( in the template folder which you use)
DO NOT USE WINDOWS NOTEPAD (it is not good for UTF-8)
Find code
<?php endwhile; ?>
Add this code in front of it
<?php comments_template(); ?>
5. Now you have a simple GUESTBOOK.
