Can't open comments on posts

  • Unknown's avatar

    My blog always defaults to “Comments are closed” on posts. I don’t want this — I want comments open. I can’t find a way to do this.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Howdy!

    To enable comments on posts by default, go to Settings > Discussion > Default article settings and check the box to “Allow people to post comments on new articles”.

    Let me know if there’s anything else I can help you with

    The whole problem here is that I did that but comments are still “closed” for posts, new and old. Any ideas?

    Howdy,

    I logged in to your dashboard, and confirmed that you do indeed have this setting the way that it needs to be. I also confirmed that when I create a new post, the discussion settings for that post show “Allow comments” by default (you can show this panel by selecting Discussion from the Screen Options drop-down in the top right-hand corner of the post editor).

    I also confirmed that the most recent post you posted has comments open, so from everything that I can see, comments are open and will be enabled by default on all future posts.

    If you continue to see a problem when you next publish a post, please respond and I’ll investigate further.
