Comments form disappeared from page

  • Hello,

    Suddenly comments form disappeared from my post pages.
    Maybe it’s due to some tweaking of the template, but I didnt change anything related to coments…

    Also posts which have comments already posted and approved, when I click on “comments (1)” it goes to an anchor in the page “#comments” which doesn’t exist…

    Thank you very much,
    Pippo

  • What did you change in the theme?

    It seems that you forgot to put in the comments template tag on your single.php page, from the looks of it.

    Please check your single.php file, and compare it to the “default” theme single.php file, you should see the different and a piece of code along these lines <?php comments_template(); ?>

    Hope that helps.

    In my template there is not a single.php file ??
    Here are all the files I have:

    comments.php
    comments-popup.php
    footer.php
    gravatar.php
    header.php
    index.php
    page.php
    sidebar.php

    Could it be the page.php?
    When I change this, it both affects the home page with post listing, and the single post view…

    thanx!

    What theme are you using, the original one before you modified it?

    I also tried disabling all plugins, but no help…

    In the main page template, I have wrapped the comments_template() function in this way:

    <!– COMMENTS DOWN HERE –>
    <?php comments_template(); ?>
    <!– COMMENTS UP HERE –>

    And on the output, in the page source, it shows:

    <!– COMMENTS DOWN HERE –>
    <!– COMMENTS UP HERE –>

    So apparently the comments_template() function returns nothing…

    oh gosh…

    A lot of posts have been made about comments stored prior to the upgrade not showing up etc ..

    I am not entirely sure if its a bug in the code, and if a patch has been submitted yet.

    I suggest that you search the forums for comment issues with 2.0 (if the search works, because its giving me a page not found right now :)), or perhaps wait a bit more ..

    Thank you, I am still using 1.5, and comments used to work untill a few days ago ??
    I didnt make big changes, except installing a few plugins. But I removed them all and still doesnt work…
    I have no idea why comments_template() returns nothing…
    I’ll wait for more luck…
    thanks a lot skulled!
