Query get post,how to add comment box|Programmer puzzle solving

Hello I have a query that gets a post with id=x and it works but it leaves out the comment box.

Is there a way to add "get comment box" to the query?

<?php 
$post_id = 104; 
$queried_post = get_post($post_id); 
$content = $queried_post->post_content; 
$content = apply_filters('the_content', $content); 
$content = str_replace(']]>', ']]&gt;', $content); 
echo $content;  
?>

First of all, welcome to WPSE!

By default, the comment box does not come with the post object, what you are looking for is the comments_template function.

It should be as simple as changing your code to this:

<?php 
$post_id = 104; 
$queried_post = get_post($post_id); 
$content = $queried_post->post_content; 
$content = apply_filters('the_content', $content); 
$content = str_replace(']]>', ']]&gt;', $content); 
echo $content;
comments_template();
?>

But if I'm correct this would only work for the current post in the loop.

Looking at the function in wp-includes/comment-template.php, it uses global $post and global $wp_query variables. You would need to modify that value in order for the comments template to show up for the post you are displaying.

You could modify that using query_posts instead of get_post, but be sure to reset the query afterwards:

$post_id = 104; 
query_posts( array( 'p' => $post_id ) ); 

while( have_posts() ) : the_post();

    $content = apply_filters( 'the_content', get_the_content() ); 
    $content = str_replace( ']]>', ']]&gt;', $content ); 
    echo $content;

    comments_template();

endwhile;

wp_reset_postdata(); // Don't forget!

I haven't tested this but it should work. I would also suggest reading this awesome answer by Rarst about when to use what function to "get posts". :)

With this query you can add the comments.

function get_comments( $args = '' ) {
    $query = new WP_Comment_Query;
    return $query->query( $args );
}
