Partial correction.. If I put a comment in to the single product page manually that comment will show but there isn’t a form to add new. Also there is no mention of comments on any of the other pages.

I added that same code mentioned above to the other page types in this theme with no further results.

Thanks for your help.

Ok, I got comments to work on pages by putting this
<?php comments_template(); ?>
just before the endwhile (which I found in another post on www.ads-software.com) and I have comments ability on pages.
But comments still not showing on the products.

Nope!! That piece of code is not in the page.php. And further I just tested to see if I could get comments to appear on a page and they don’t. That has to be it.

Is there any particular place I should place that code in the page.php file?

Appreciate all the help I am getting on this forum.

Thanks.

Thanks for your reply Joseph. Yes the 6 or so test products I am working with all have allow comments unchecked now since you mentioned that in your message and still the comments aren’t showing.

Wondering if the problem is with the theme, Megamag from ThemeForest, not supporting custom post types. I see in their support someone else trying to get comments associated with another plugin.

In addition to the comments not appearing, for posts in this theme I get a nice bar below the post that says Related Posts and another that says No Comments when there aren’t any and then the form. I am not seeing any of the fancy stuff in the single product page which I was hoping too it would inherit. Again making me wonder if it is the theme.

Getting comments to work though is the more crucial thing since my client wants her customers to be able to discuss the books she is selling. Cosmetics are secondary.

If you can add anything additional I could look for or code that would make this work that would be greatly appreciated. Or even your comments that the theme may be the issue. I will write to the theme author as well.

Again thank you very much!

Hi, I just installed the most recent version of Market Press for the first time (V2.9.2.1) as well as the WPMU MarketPress Allow Comments (V0.3). I made the suggested changes to the array as per previous post but the comments are still not showing up.

Comments are definitely turned on in my theme and WP itself (I have comments on my posts), as well as comments ticked in the individual products. I don’t see anywhere else to control them, although the WPMU MarketPress Allow Comments plugin talks about being ON and “select on which elements to add/remove comments” which I am not quite understanding what that means.

I have posted a separate new item in the support area for the WPMU MarketPress Allow Comments plugin and am patiently awaiting a response, but thought posting here too where other users were already discussing this would help me as well.

Appreciate any feedback or additional information.

Thank you all!!!

I found out something very interesting today in regards to this plugin and the donation buttons and hope it helps others. Also if there is a workaround on this I would love to hear about it.

The plugin documentation tells you to copy and paste the code for the PayPal button in to the settings for the fundraiser plugin which I did. But because of the theme cosmetics of the button were really lacking so I targeted the button to an image.

It looked nice on my page, it went through the PayPal process and updated PayPal like it was supposed to, but it didn’t update any of the progress windows on the campaign page. After a lot of back and forth checking and rechecking, I set the button to the default PayPal code and everything worked like a charm and how it is advertised to work.

So my comment to anyone having problems is to check the button code. My question to the author is: is there any way to target the button to another image or can this be incorporated in to a future release. Others may find value in that too.

Thank you for a great plugin that I now have working!!

Thanks for your reply John.
I am using current WP and current plugin versions, have pretty permalinks, and PayPal was doing all of its things right, including returning to the site.
I cleared out all the PayPal settings and set them all up again and got a successful transaction and a successful update to the webpage to show donations received. Don’t know why it worked after that because I didn’t change anything when I did PayPal settings second time around.
Bottom line I got one to go through and will test another on my client’s live site to be sure.

Thanks steckinsights for your comment. I thought and expected it to be instant too.

I am having same issue in my test environment and on my client’s live site. All the PayPal settings are exactly as stated in the readme file and PayPal does its thing with the email confirmations and returning to the site, so I know the donations are processing properly on that end. The [pfund-donate] shortcode is in the cause too. But the campaign is not being updated on the website with the donation.

Donations that are manually entered appear immediately. Is there any time delay in PayPal donations updating the website?

Please, I need to respond to my client as soon as possible as to why this is not working and get it to work. He is expecting to go live with it this weekend.

Thank you.

Yes I have read the installation instructions and the FAQs many times, as well as pages of forum threads. What I was looking to see is an actual how to. In other words to do this you need to do that. I see others have been looking for the same thing.

Anyway, I have since found a thread where it mentions an incompatibility issue with WP3.7 (which is the version I was testing the plugin on). I have now created another test environment with a previous WP version and it seems to be working. At least I can now try to figure out how it actually works.

It would be very helpful to have some documentation no how to put it all together and what are the expected results.

I will watch for the next version to come out to support WP3.7 and then test it too.

The premise of the plugin is awesome and I am hoping it is what I have been looking for
