[SOLVED] comments don't work now
Hi Flynn,
My comments stopped working a while ago. When you click on "leave a comment" now, nothing happens. Is this something related to the Atahulapa theme? It might have happened when I upgraded to Wordpress 2.9. (I now have 2.9.1.) I have comments enabled in the discussion settings. I haven't upgraded to Atahualpa 3.4.5 yet. Would that fix it? My url is: http://www.ellifolks.com/blog/ (Donation made.) Thanks for your help! :) Ellen |
is this happening on post's or pages?
Did you change your permalinks at some point? |
Hi juggledad,
It happens on posts and pages. If I go to the page of an individual post and click on "leave a comment", comments from all different posts show up, not necessarily that post. It still doesn't let you leave a comment, though. I did change the permalinks quite a long time ago. The problem just started recently, though. I think it was around the time I upgraded to Wordpress 2.9. The permalinks were set to this: /%category%/%postname%/ Thanks! Ellen |
if you swap to the default theme does it work?
|
Yes! I just tried swapping to the default theme. The comments now work. On the Manage Themes page under Broken Themes, it says:
The following themes are installed but incomplete. Themes must have a stylesheet and a template. Name Description wordpress Stylesheet is missing. I'm not sure what that means. Besides Atahualpa and and Wordpress Default, I have Wordpress Classic and MistyLook themes installed. I do want to keep the Atahualpa theme as my theme though. If I upgrade to 3.4.5, do you think that will fix it? Thank you, juggledad! :) |
look in each of the folders that in teh wp-contents/themes folder. Each one should have a file called 'style.css' and if you look at that file, it should tell you the name of the theme. Which folder is missing the style.css?
|
In the themes folder, there are actually 5 themes: Atahualpa, classic, default, Mistylook, and one that just says Wordpress. The one that just says Wordpress is the one without a style sheet. I'm not sure what that one is. It doesn't show up on my admin themes installed page.

Hi juggledad,
I upgraded to version 3.4.5.1, and that seems to have fixed the problem. Maybe my Atahualpa theme got corrupted when I upgraded to Wordpress 2.9? The comments seem to showing correctly now and the blog lets you leave comments. Thank you for all your help!! :) Ellen |
