• I have set that none registered users can post comments, but they still cannot comment, theres a bug within the comments.php. it keeps saying “Sorry the comment area are closed”

    can anyone fix or no the error? code is below thanks

    [mod: don’t post long code here. If it is necessary, which isn’t in the case of the comments.php, use a pastebin service like https://wordpress.pastebin.ca]

  • I just tried it… it seems to be working. After I submit my comment i get this message:

    Your comment is awaiting moderation.

    If you don’t want it, you can turn it off.

    But upgrade your software, because version 2.3.1 is insecure. You don’t want to turn into a spam magnet!

    im running 2.5, it doesnt work 100%

    Sorry, I visited the site in your profile and it was running 2.3.1. What is the link to the site with the comments problem?

    its 4:30 am and i need sleep, i couldnt figure out how to make a simple wp forum post so hopefully if people are still having this problem they will find my responce. i recently had the problem with posts saying comments are closed even with the “Allow people to post comments on the article” option in settings>discussion checked. the way i solved it was by manually going to each post (manage>posts) and scrolling down to the bottom where it says “comments and pings”. opened that part up and sure enough the ‘allow comments’ box was unchecked. its very simple and possibly noobish. hope this helped someone.
    btw i have version 2.6.
