• Whenever people try to post comments on my WordPress the comments don’t appear. They aren’t getting errors or anything, but the comments aren’t appearing. What’s wrong? Thanks.

  • 1. Do you have something in the Comment Moderation field (Options > Discussion)? If so, is there a blank line anywhere in that text field?
    2. If not 1, Are comments populating your blog’s database?

    1. No, nothing.
    2. Yes, they’re in the database, but not appearing in the blog.

    I just checked the database and I noticed that all the comments are set to “0” in the comment_approved field. I changed one of the comments to “1” and it showed up! I don’t have anything set for moderation so I don’t understand why this is happening.

    Neither do I.
    One thing to try: in WordPress under Options > Discussion, check the “An administrator must approve the comment” option, click Update Options, then uncheck and click Update Options again.

    i have done all the above…i have changed my chmod to 766..and comments are not showing… i have gotten emails informing me to approve or deny, and then when i go in to moderate comments, it says that there are no comments registered…
    please help me…

    I have some kind of problem just like above. I’m not sure why, but when you click on the comments link, nothing is showing up. I’m using WP 1.2.2 and my address is here.

    It looks like you have index.php redirecting to home.php. If that is the case, then comments will not work. They will also redirect to home.php.

    how can i do that? I’m checking but wp-comments.php doesn’t have the words “index.php” anywhere in it.
