No way to add comments

    Hello all,

    I have enabled comments in the wordpress discussion settings, the post has the allow comments checkbox marked but when I go to look at the post, there is no option to add a comment.

    Can anyone shed any light on why this might be?

    Many thanks,

    1. Make sure you’ve selected Allow people to post comments on new articles in Discussion Settings.

    2. Go to Graphene Options –> Comments Options –> Commenting and check if you’ve selected Disabled Completely. If it is, then select Use WordPress settings and save changes.

    I have the Allow people to post comments checked and the graphene options is set to use wordpress settings already.

    I fear maybe I deleted the code to call the comments in the theme’s settings, but its been updated since then so that’d of been overwritten?

    I’m an idiot. I had this in my child theme stylesheet:

    #comments, #respond{
    display:none;

    I’ve removed it and now it shows. Sorry for wasting your time!!

    I recently installed this theme and quite like it. I have had people complain though that they can’t leave comments unless they have a wordpress account. How do I set it up so that both wordpress account holders and non-wordpress account holders can comment?

    I don’t want to lose the possibility for visitors to leave comments yet this theme seems to restrict it.

    @The Guy, you were probably selected an option in the discussion settings which allows only logged in users to comment. But I can see the comment form on your site. That means anyone can comment on your site without registering/logging in.

    Since it is a resolved thread, it’s better to create a new topic for your questions.

    Thanks for your response Prasanna. I’d already checked the discussion settings and it doesn’t seem to be that causing the problem.
