  Hi there,

  I can’t seem to get any comments to post on my page – whenever you try it says “Sorry, this comment could not be posted.” and nothing else. My aim is to have it so that people don’t have to enter in an email to leave a comment. Just name and comment, but nothing is posting?

  under the theme settings ->discussion page:
  Comment author must fill out name and e-mail – is not checked
  Users must be registered and logged in to comment – is not checked

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

  It appears that the comments are working on your site just fine however they are moderated.

  Your comment is awaiting moderation.

  Was the on screen reply that I received.

  Hi there,

  As @igetpro mentioned you have selected to manually approve all comments when you go to Settings > Discussion in your Dashboard.

  Specifically these settings:

  Comment must be manually approved
  Comment author must have a previously approved comment

  If you go to Comments in your Dashboard you will be able to approve any pending comments.

  Let me know if you have any questions with this!
