Thank you for your help, @angus. It does appear changing those settings fixed it. I guess I was confused.

Here is how I assumed it worked:

1. Comments that were _imported_ would display under the post in WP.
2. Comment count would include _all_ of the replies to a topic in Discourse.

I had that selected because _eventually_ I was hoping to get around to actually displaying the mod-liked comments below posts. But I guess that’s not possible along with showing the total number of replies to a topic?
