node comments form doesn't appear below post with panels and tabs panel style
I'd be interested in hearing from anyone who has been able to successfully get Node comments working with Panels (5.2.x) and Tabs panel style. The panels and tabs portion is working great and I have my node comments content type (default "comments") correctly associated with my custom node type, but the comment form doesn't appear below the post. I have confirmed the configuration (admin/settings/nodecomment) is set to "Display below post or comments". The "Add new Comment" link displays properly below the post and the link is properly defined to #node-form, but the comment form itself is missing. Interesting if the configuration is switched to "Display on separate page" the "Add new Comment" link points to "node/add/comment/15" (where the last segment is the NID of the current node) and the comment form properly appears on a separate page. However this takes the user away from the tabular navigation, which for obvious reasons is not acceptable.
I should also mention that content type is an Organic Group although that shouldn't make a difference in this particular case. The core issue is why the form isn't appearing with panels and tabs panel style. I checked the issues for node comments and found nothing. I was hesitant to post an issue there due to the lack of recent support activity.
Just in case anyone is curious this particular project requires full granular control over each individual comment thus the need for Node Comments. The increased content control will be worth the performance hit.
Anyway, I've been fighting with this for several hours and haven't been able to make any headway. All comments/suggestions are welcomed and appreciated.
solution
I was unabled to determine why the node comments form wasn't natively appearing underneath the post when using the configuration decribed above, but I found an acceptable solution. I simply created a block and pasted the snippet included in this article then added the block to the bottom of the panel. The comment form now appears as expected with no apparent side effects.
I suppose this could be considered a bug with node comments, but this is not conclusive given the combination of specialty modules used for this particular implementation.

I have a similar problem that
I have a similar problem that I've been trying to resolve for the past day or so. Both my comments and my form appear on a node, but when I click on the tab, nothing appears.
I think this is a Views argument scenario, but I don't know what to put because I'm fairly new to Drupal. I just now managed to get node/1's comments on the tab click but clicking on node/2's tab gives me node/1's comments.
Any help would be appreciated.
Edit:
Oh yeah, a good example of what I'm trying to accomplish is at http://jqueryfordesigners.com/slidedown-animation-jump-revisited/ on the comments tab.
separate comments page
First off, this topic is related specifically to defining comments as individual nodes (via the node comment module) versus standard comments associated with a node.
You should be able to reproduce the layout you referenced with Panels and Tabs panel style. Create a series of panel pages with tabs and then add the appropriate views. You'll want to create a custom template to suppress the comments on the default node view page. You'll also need to figure out a way to display the comment form at the bottom of the comment views page.
Report back if you need more info or get stuck. Also report back when you eventually identify a solution so that others will benefit.
