Allow people to post comments on the article not working

    I have “Allow people to post comments on the article” checked in my settings under discussion yet each post goes live with the comments closed. I then go back and manually over-ride on the post itself which is not ideal.

    Any ideas what could be wrong?

  • I hear more people seem to have this problem. I’m using IE7 and Vista, but even if i use Firefox the settings are not set.

    this worked for me: Thanks to Pavlos:

    1) You must have access to use SQL commands on your database, like for example with phpMyAdmin.
    2) Select your WP database and click on the SQL tab.
    3) Paste and run the following SQL command.

    UPDATE wp_posts SET comment_status = ‘open’, ping_status = ‘open’ WHERE comment_status = ‘closed’;
