users can't post comments

  • For past few days, some new and old users can’t post comments on my blog posts.

    This is happening randomly for some newly registered users but there are 2-3 old users who are always getting the following error:

    Looks like you’ve already posted a review!

    the url is of the type: https://websitename.com/wp-comments-post.php

    The comments are original (i.e. not duplicate). Happening on posts that don’t have any comments at all.

    Can someone please help?

  • Hey,

    I seem to be getting the exact same error. “Looks like you’ve already posted a review!” every time a user tries to post a second comment on any post/page on my website.

    Anyone have any ideas please?

    Kind Regards

    Same here on my website, it happens for everyone regardless of user level.

    Are you guys using any sort of comment plugins?

    I am using the theme ‘Listify’ by Astoundify and one of their plugins – WP Job Manager – Reviews.

    The reviews plugin is basically comments, with the added option of star ratings.

    However, if this is a problem occurring on a WordPress website that isn’t using either of these, then their must be another cause to this issue.

    I am using the same theme and plugin, it seems like it is a problem with the theme or plugin, have you tried reaching out to them for support?

    Get in touch with us for support if your using Listify or WP Job Manager – Reviews.

    We are looking forward to helping you over on our help desk.

    Cheers! Adam

    Hey Jakedavi,it1294,

    Did that resolve the issue?
    can you please share the resolution here?

    Thanks!

    Yes it is an issue with the plugin which they are currently working on to fix. However there is a way to bypass it for the moment.

    Add the following code snippet to your child theme’s functions.php file:

    add_filter( 'wpjmr_can_post_multiple_reviews', '__return_true' );

    This should enable you to post reviews on other listings, downside is, it may also enable users to post multiple reviews on same listing.

    Hope this helps!
