Thanks! What happens when you make a plugin so good, people forget how it works!

Delets Cache button on the Admin toolbar does not clear cache for me. WP 3.3.1, SC 1.0. Regenerating stats, restarting plugin, etc. show cached items untouched.

I thought that because your having comment problems, and have a comment plug-in deployed it could be causing issues. If this problem is widespread and not unique to your configuration(s), there will be a flood of people replying to this who can help you better than me. If, as in my case, the comments were close during an upgrade or some other change, use my suggestion above (Extended Comment Options), and you should have no further issues.

Checking page source on “Mormon Momma” I see a plugin called “commentluv”. Went over to creators website, see a reference to an issue on the “commentluv” network regarding auto-closing and spam. If this plugin is running on all your blogs, disable one and see if the problem goes away.

AlisonMooreSmith, your issue sounds like a scheduled process or a cron somewhere. Your ISP should provide you the logs. My problem was static. I think the Extended Comment Options plugin will help with your issue for now.

I just deactivated the plugin as a test, the global setting to allow comments on individual posts remain, so the plugin just adds features to the core WP. Keep this plugin !

More clarification on the “Bug” comment above. When they say “disable all plugins and themes prior to upgrade”, do it. This blog failed because of the way 3.0.5 used Akismet to distribute some WP bug fixes. When it failed, the database upgrade didn’t complete that is required from 2.X to 3.X. I had to perform manually. So that makes a WP bug less clear.

I just figured my problem(s) out. Would appear there’s a bug in WP’s upgrade script….

Multiple blogs migrating from 2.8 to 3.0.5. Everything seemed ok, Days later I became curious why there were no comments posted on one of my larger blogs with thousands of posts. I noticed the comment form was missing. First assumptions incompatible plugins or theme. Wasn’t that. Default theme says “comments closed”. Next on to discussion settings on the admin panel, found this thread. Its been a long time since initial setup, all looked normal except for all blogs have “An administrator must always approve the comment” unchecked. I thought that was wrong, still went to moderation either way.

Then I realized that all the individual posts “Allow Comments” was unchecked!!!, and according to wordpress, SOL flipping a switch…

soo…experimented with this plugin (not updated but works with 3.0.5) saved me big time!!!!!

Poof, thousands of posts open for business with one click. Cool features. Tell @maerk not to give up on this plugin!!

PS. Had no issues for over 3 years, upgrading along the way. Just this week, above tag issues. Two other blogs, same procedure, same plugins, one has the same theme, no issues.

My issue

– I can create a new tag, but can’t assign new tag to a post
– I can create a new tag from quickedit, which assigns to a post.
– Subsequent quickedits attempting to group posts to new tag fail.
– Regular edit attempting to attach post to new tag fail.

Debugging steps.

Deactivated all plugins
Replaced existing theme with default theme

Cleaned options table of all orphans
Repaired all tables.

Same problem

Upgraded from 2.8.6 to 2.9.2 while in above state

Same problem.
