"Comments are closed" problem opening them
Each page shows "comments are closed" at the bottom. I want all pages to be able to be commented on (for now).
There is one page which someone has somehow managed to leave a comment and that page does not show this message at the bottom. That was several weeks ago and when i had another theme. I've done the following (it's been that way all along): 1) ATO->Style & configure COMMENTS->Allow comments on "Page" pages, too? must be set to YES 2) dashboard->Pages->Edit->page-you-want->Discussion->Allow Comments - must be checked. Just now I deactivated all my plugins and no change. Also, I've spent some time searching the WP.org forums. I've found the issue raised several times but none resolved. Example: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/258518?replies=6. Atahualpa 3.4.2 WP 2.8.3 Scott |
what is your url?

|
Just now I published some content on the home page and the comments are opened. On one other page there is content, another none yet. Both still say "Comments closed."
|
What plugins do you have? I'm woundering where the 'subscribe without commenting' comes from at the bottom of the page if you select the 'Scott’s Web Shop' tag?
|
I have about a dozen. The ones that seem pertinent are:
Subscribe to comments Subscribe to comments now WP Ajax Edit Comments Contact Form 7 The others: Akismet All in One SEO Pack Bad Behavior Google XML Sitemaps Hello Dolly Search Docs Sociable WordPress Database Backup WordPress Mobile Edition WP-PageNavi WP-Print |
have you tried disabling them?
|
Yes. Disabled all of them with no change in behavior.
It may be more of a curiosity if I post some content on the Resources page and that page then allows comments. Nonetheless, I'm willing to try to solve this. |
Interestingly, if you go in through the webserver (which Google does if you search "Scott's Web Shop" with the quotes) you get a different setup:

Morning,
Can you use phpAdmin and go in and look at the database. It looks like you only have two posts ands a couple pages. In the database, look at wp_posts and the column is 'comment_status'. Do all the rows have a status of 'open'? |
Yes, both (there are two) have status as "open."
These two posts have as content, "Welcome to WordPress. This is your first post. Edi..." & "This is an example of a WordPress page, you could ..." The first is titled "Hello World"; the second, "About." |
I've begun posting content on my resources page and would like visitors to make suggestions but page doesn't allow comments:

Scott, not going to be able to figure this out without 'taking a peek under the covers'. I'll send you a PM
|
Any updates to this? I'm having a similar issue. Thanks.

I think this will fix it http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthr...1593#post21593
|
Will that solution work for me when my issue is not on pages but on all posts? Details here: http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthread.php?t=5028
