no comments showing.

  • https://notsweet.org/words/
    Hi, when I upgraded to wordpress 1.2 the comments stopped showing. I did not touch the css or the index.php templates in upgrading.
    Comments are switched on in the control panel and not moderated. I’m at a complete loss as to what to do, and it is making me have second thoughts about this CMS.
    Can someone help me?

  • You need to take a look at the index.php file that came with WP 1.2, there are differences between it and the one from 1.0.2. You will want to migrate the changes into your index.php file. The call your currently using to get the comments link apparently is wrong.
    ie:
    https://notsweet.org/words/index.php?p=79&c=1#comments
    Works just fine.

    That didn’t help.
    The template tags for showing comments are exactly the same.
    I have no idea how the comments link you apparently got could be constructed, because I’ve tried and I can’t replicate it.
    I need a bit more help I’m afraid.

    I would suggest backing up your index file and wp-comments.php and then copying over the original templates from 1.2 to test. If it works, you will know something is wrong in the templates you have designed.

    Did you compare the old and the new index.php? I did, and the only thing which is in the new and not in the old one is:
    <?php wp_head(); ?>
    Now, I don’t know what it does. But maybe it’s possible that this is causing the problem. It’s problably there for a reason ??

    I have gone over my index.php and as I have said previously (more than once) it is not that template.

    Well, what was it then?

    Yep, I would like to know that too. What was the problem?
