I maybe slow, but I finally got comments working in FreeRoller. To get there, I had to change the following line in my Weblog page:

    $macros.showWeblogEntries()

to:

    $macros.showWeblogEntries("_day")

This will make the rendering of the weblog entries use my "_day" template. I then used the following for the "_day" template:

    <div class="entry">
       $macros.showDayPermalink()
       $macros.showEntryDate()
    </div>
    
    #foreach( $entry in $entries )
    <p>
       <b>$entry.title</b> $entry.text 
       <span class="dateStamp">($entry.pubTime)</span>
        $macros.showEntryPermalink( $entry )
        $macros.showCommentsLink($entry)
    </p>
    #end

I hope that some people out there find this information useful. If you do, please feel free to leave a comment. ;-)
