Comments in Events

This is uasually a theme issue. Did you try a default theme like Rookie or TwentyTwenty?

Thanks,
Savvas

@savvasha Rookie.

I had this same issue. I downloaded a plugin called “Disable Comments” and that solved the problem.

@cmcconnell Hi. Which author? rbPlugins and WPDeveloper – does not help.

Hi there!

Thanks for your message and I’m sorry for the delay.

Your message got lost in the shuffle. The Rookie theme has comments enabled in its template, you can check it in the single-event.php file:

Thanks!

@rochesterj Hi! There is, but no comments..

Hi there!

Thanks for your reply.

Did you edit the custom post type to show that box you see in this screenshot?

Because by default the events won’t have that box at all, you need to edit the custom post type and add it there.

Thanks!

@rochesterj Hi!

Hi Kiev,

Thanks for your reply.

Did you edit the custom post type to show that box you see in this screenshot?

This isn’t about the template page (the one you’ve linked) but rather the \wp-content\plugins\sportspress-pro\includes\sportspress\includes\class-sp-post-types.php file, around line 436.

If you haven’t done this edit, please do so, change it from this:
'supports' => array( 'title', 'editor', 'author', 'thumbnail', 'excerpt' ),

To this:
'supports' => array( 'title', 'editor', 'author', 'thumbnail', 'excerpt', 'comments' ),

That should add the comment field to your events. Please notice that you will lose this edit in future plugin updates.

Thanks!

Kind Regards,

Thanks,

@savvasha yes, both are included. Nothing happens.. ??

@kiziev please revert ALL changes you made in the files and follow the below steps:

1. Go to SportsPress->Settings->Matches->Event Options and tick the “Allow people to post comments on new articles” option.
2. Go to a match edit page and confirm that the comments are enabled.
3. Check that comments are now working in this match ??

Thanks,
Savvas

@savvasha nothing.. very strange. It looks like we have a bug, how do know if there is a problem?

I dont know what else to try. Here is working just fine:
