Comment override individual settings

  • I purchased a blog and the previous author specified in the posts to not allow commenting. Now I have turned commenting on, but the individual pots override that option. is there a way to force the old pots to allow comments without having to edit 2000 posts?

  • Assuming your posts table is wp_posts then in phpMyAdmin this SQL statement:
    UPDATE wp_posts SET comment_status='open' WHERE post_status = 'publish' AND post_type = 'post';

    Please backup your database before attempting anything like this!!!

    I recently posted a entry only to see that it wasn’t allowing comments. If I asked for this it was a compelte mistake. How can I now allow comments? I’m using 2.7.1
