My appologies. I was busy in the content-single.php. I have manged to sort this out by editing the single.php file in my child theme.
Well, comments ( if i remember correct and nothing has changed from v4 ) are custom post types, so u can add post_meta to it, like response => true ( positive ) or false ( negative ).

Without code and based upon what you are doing, my advise would be to set WP_DEBUG to true in your wp-config.php. If there are any errors causing the fields not to display, they are likely to show up. Especially since you are coding a custom theme, there is a good chance of errors somewhere you … Read more
