WP 2.5: Comments are closed

Are you using the “Add Your Own Headers” plugin? Some one posted earlier with a similar problem but resolved after disabling the plugin.

No… And I tried to deactive all plugins, but the problem persist.

The problem is in Wp 2.5, cause I returned to the version 2.3.3 and now it′s everything working fine…

I am having the same issues.

I have a tried a ton of stuff to try to get the “Sorry, Comments Closed” message to go away.

• Validating my pages, fixing validation errors
• Tested in Safari, IE, Opera and Firefox. IE gives me an error page, no message
• Checking commenting for the whole site
• Checked commenting on a per post basis
• Searched WordPress Forums
• Searched the Web
• Upgraded all plugins that needed it, deleted unnecessary plugins
• Reverted back to the default theme
• Upgraded testing environment to WordPress 2.5 final, but can’t replicate the problem

Good to know that someone else tried to deactivate all plugins before I tried that. I won’t assume that will work. I also don’t have the “Add your own headers” plugin.

Can anyone else replicate this problem and help solve it???

I fixed my problem.

This is what I was able to do. By tracing the functions backwards, and their calls, I found that file wp-includes/comment-template.php stopped at line 327. The new file stops at a line count of 768. I replaced all the files in that directory, and that seemed to fix things.

Here is my blog post about the other stuff I tried.
