I am having some issue with the comments on my posts. I have checked all settings cleared cookies and cache and tried everything but to no avail.

So the issue is, say on a post I have 35 comments. When I am logged in to my wordpress, I can see those comments in the admin panel, and even when I go to the post page I can see them all..

But when I am NOT LOGGED in I do not see all comments. But I do see few.

Here is one screenshot of a post:

https://awesomescreenshot.com/05a49kz8e7 (Shows 38 comments when logged in)
https://awesomescreenshot.com/0fb49kzb09 (23 comments when not logged in)..

(P.S. both posts are same, its just in one browser it translated the page to English).

Does anyone know what is the issue?

I am having are serious issue after updating to WordPress 4.0

It is saying my comments are closed and the REPLY box is completely missing from my blog posts, yet I have not closed them. I also checked the Settings>Discussion> and Allow people to post comments on new articles yet, the entire REPLY box is GONE and I am unable to leave comments, as well as visitors.

I have deactivated ALL plugins
I switched to the Twenty Fourteen theme.

SAME issue.

the site is here with the default 2014 theme after deactivating a different theme, so it’s not theme specific

Can anyone help?

I am not sure if this is all related, but I cannot find a way to fix this, and have done many searches in support forums and can’t find an answer. I have removed a lot of plug ins, updated the few I use, deactivated them, but still having the issue. Could this be an issue with my VPS or hosting company, or is it a wordpress bug?

Thanks!

I have approved comments which are visible on my website but from admin when i click on Approved comments it shows following message,
No comments found.

Please help in resolving this issue.

Thanks

Also, when I UNcheck the post or page setting to allow comments. I save the page and when I come back to edit or view it. The box for comments is CHECKED. The theme company support says it is a wordpress function and not the theme’s fault

Anyone run across this problem? WHat is the solution? I cannot allow comments!!!
Thank you for your help in advance!

I don’ t know much about programming.

My Comments PHP is below. please help

Thank you

<?php

// Prevent direct access to this file
if (!defined(‘ABSPATH’)) {
header(‘HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden’);
die(‘Please do not load this file directly. Thank you.’);
}

// Check for password protection
if (post_password_required()) {
$pass_req = “<p>” . __(‘This post is password protected. Enter the password to view comments.’, ‘thesis’) . “</p>\n”;
return;
}

$user_data = array(
‘user_ID’ => $user_ID,
‘user_identity’ => $user_identity,
‘comment_author’ => $comment_author,
‘comment_author_email’ => $comment_author_email,
‘comment_author_url’ => $comment_author_url,
‘req’ => $req
);

$thesis_comments = new thesis_comments;
$thesis_comments->output_comments($comments, $user_data);

Really hope someone can help. I’ve just finished sorting the theme out just adding content.

I currently have 2 blog posts on there and the menu is selected for the categories. I have 2 major issues that I can’t seem to fix.

1: the exerpt doesn’t seem to be working i’ve set it to only show a excerpt and on teh first page it still shows the whole thing.

2 when you click on the link at the top ie SEO Blog it shows the blog posts but…when you click on the blog title it goes through to the comments section and doesn’t show the blog post?!?

The site is https://www.kevinnave.co.uk

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
