    I also have the same problem, but in a wordpress.org website: http://focoempatico.net/

    I customized my comment_form function through the functions.php file but without being anything close to understanding very well what I was doing. But it was working. And I now realize that the latest update to WordPress 4.2 made some changes related to the comment form.So I compared the comment_template.php files from before the upate and after the update, and here is what I found:

    <?php
						$submit_button = sprintf(
							$args['submit_button'],
							esc_attr( $args['name_submit'] ),
							esc_attr( $args['id_submit'] ),
							esc_attr( $args['class_submit'] ),
							esc_attr( $args['label_submit'] )
						);

						/**
						 * Filter the submit button for the comment form to display.
						 *
						 * @since 4.2.0
						 *
						 * @param string $submit_button HTML markup for the submit button.
						 * @param array  $args          Arguments passed to <code>comment_form()</code>.
						 */
						$submit_button = apply_filters( 'comment_form_submit_button', $submit_button, $args );

						$submit_field = sprintf(
							$args['submit_field'],
							$submit_button,
							get_comment_id_fields( $post_id )
						);

						/**
						 * Filter the submit field for the comment form to display.
						 *
						 * The submit field includes the submit button, hidden fields for the
						 * comment form, and any wrapper markup.
						 *
						 * @since 4.2.0
						 *
						 * @param string $submit_field HTML markup for the submit field.
						 * @param array  $args         Arguments passed to comment_form().
						 */
						echo apply_filters( 'comment_form_submit_field', $submit_field, $args );

    Can anyone help us understand this and show how to make the submit button reappear?

    Hello there,
