    i cant seem to find an answer to this anywhere that helps me. + there are quite a few posts about this.

    After posting a Comment a blank page is shown in any theme – default etc..

    This works fine for me if I am logged in… i commment and i am returned to the page where i commented

    – for anyone else you are shown a blank white page with

    https://www.tobysplace.me.uk/blog/wp-comments-post.php in the address bar.

    Is there a solution for this?
    many thanks,
    Toby

  • I’ve been having the same problem myself. I noticed a lot of other sites have this problem but there are a few who don’t

    I’ve been having this problem too, only it happens at random times and I don’t know why. I’ve tried all the fixes, such as adding the line of code WordPress recommends in their FAQ (already there in my theme, so wasn’t the cause), deleting a blank line in wp-comments-post.php (didn’t make a difference), etc.

    The ONLY thing that works for me is restarting my server. The tech support people at my server company say it’s a problem with my js_cache, but I don’t know how to fix it. I’m thinking it might be plugin related (Google XML Sitemaps maybe?), but I really don’t know. If anyone has any fixes for the js_cache problem, I’d love to hear about them.

    I’m having the same problem for Admin user and anyone else, I’ve tried all the suggested solutions to no avail, but here’s the clincher for me: it’s only happening in IE7, and works just fine when I test it in Opera. It’s happening from a clean install of version 2.7.1 with no plugins and I’ve tried a number of different themes.

    If you’ve previously posted here and you’re still experiencing the same problem or if you’re a new poster, can you please tell us what browser you’re using to test your page and perhaps try another and tell us how that worked, it may lead us to a solution…

    I am having the same problem on https://www.looble.com.

    I can post comments if I am logged in as admin, but nobody else can comment. If I log out, I can no longer comment. I’ve tried disabling plugins and changing theme but this has not helped.

    Same problem here…I have no problems on other blogs on the same server…
    have tried to reinstal, have the same problem on all themes, going to try to disable some plug ins and see…will let you all know

    I have deactivated all plugins…and it is working…going to reactivate plugins one at a time and let you know…

    it is the ShiftThis.net | Swift SMTP plugin…
    I am going to download and reinstal it…

    appears that this plugin is no longer supported…can’t even find it on the developers site…
    If you must have a plug in like this for your wordpress…I am going to recoment https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/cimy-swift-smtp/

    They have current documentaion

    I do not have the Swift SMTP plugin, but am experiencing this problem. Even if I disable all plugins and use the default theme.

    Hopefully this will be a solution for some of you. I was having the same problem. However comments worked in the default WP theme, it just would not work in my theme. Comparing the two themes, I found that my single.php template was missing <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?> After I added it, everything worked fine. So check if you are calling the loop in this way:

    <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
    <div>
    YOUR POSTS CONTENT
    </div>
    
    <?php comments_template(); ?>
    
    <?php endwhile; else: ?>
    
    <p>Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.</p>
    
    <?php endif; ?>
    
    </div>
    
    <?php get_footer(); ?>

    I have a feeling this is the correct way to do it. I rarely looked at the documentation when I learned to use WP. Hope this helps for someone, and it isn’t my own isolated newbie mistake.

    I get the same blank page when i submit my url. I guess akismet is wrongly flagging by site as spam or it is is a bug either of wordpress or akismet. Please i need some help in getting my site unbloked from this spam issue. I am providing my website url for you to check

    Thanks
