I recently discovered that there are a random large number of posts on my website where the comments are disabled. I’ve been debugged this issue as much as physically possible at this point. I’ve deactivated plugins to see if that’s the issue with no luck. I’ve also gone into each post to ensure that the comments are enabled. I’ve also gone into the general WordPress Discussion settings and all the settings appear to be in order there.
Could someone help me with this issue?
Thanks,
Sarah
However, when a visitor types a comment into the comment box on a post, after clicking “post comment”, they’re taken to a new page with the following text:
“Sorry comments are closed for this item.
<< Back”
I do not have JetPack installed. Any thoughts on what other plugins or issues could potentially be causing this?
Here is my site: https://blogs.volunteermatch.org/volunteeringiscsr/
The last comment my site received was in March 2016 on this post:
https://blogs.volunteermatch.org/volunteeringiscsr/2016/03/29/virtual-volunteering-anywhere-anytime/
When I try to comment on that post now, I get the same error message.
Thanks.

Thanks!!
]]>But for a couple of them, their posts appear without a Comments box. I have viewed the posts in detail and cannot see anything different from any other posts. I can add comments to the posts myself, the “Comments” area in the post editing form work, but obviously that is not available to regular users.
I’ve spent a lot of time looking at the posts in edit mode, and the author’s user accounts, and I cannot see what is different.
Help?
