Comments won’t submit – 404 error

  • Hi,

    I’ve been trying to comment on a post – as a logged in user – but I keep getting a 404 error (and stupid webhosts re-direct it permanently to an advert of theirs so I have to keep deleting browser history because of the cache).

    It’s the first time I’ve used a WordPress blog and not very familiar with php (still learning, early days!) so if anyone can figure out why it’s doing it that would really, really help!

    The site is https://www.2011mountaingoats.co.uk/blog/

  • Check you theme’s comments.php template file. It should be using something like:

    <form action="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/wp-comments-post.php" method="post" id="commentform">

    not:

    <form action="/wp-comments-post.php" method="post" id="commentform">
