How to Enable Comments on the Genesis Portfolio Pro

A member of the Genesis Framework Facebook group asked how she could enable comments on the Genesis Portfolio Pro plugin.

This snippet will help you enable the comments. Just drop it in your functions.php file and enable comments on your post.

If you are unfamiliar with working with your theme files, stop and ask for help. If you are familiar with modifying your theme files – you should back them up before proceeding.

// Add Comments to Portfolio Custom Post Type (https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_post_type_support)
function add_comments_portfolio() {
 add_post_type_support( 'portfolio', 'comments' );
}
add_action( 'init', 'add_comments_portfolio', 11 );

Now you can enable comments on whatever portfolio page you’d like. Be sure to check the comment box.

Note: If you have changed your Portfolio name to something other than “portfolio”, replace “portfolio” on Line 3 with your new name.
