• I have an old version of the 2010 theme installed, probably the oldest, i think its version 1.0 or something like that.

    I recently noticed comments stopped being displayed on the site, and im guessing its due to the theme being out of date. i understand i could update the theme to rectify this, but i think i may have made some manual customisations to the theme files, (a very long time ago) so am weary of updating as i will most likely lose those customisations.

    Is there any way i can do a diff of the original 2010 theme files, to see what changes i have made to the files, so it will make it easier to migrate the changes to the newer versions of the files?

    also is there anyway to find out the exact version number of the theme i have installed, so i can find a corresponding unaltered copy of the original theme files, so i can see what changes i have made.

    Many thanks,

    steve

  • In the style.css file you can see the version number.

    Comments stop being displayed can also be due to a plugin.

    I had the exact same problem, don’t know how it came as I don’t think I’ve modified the theme on this part…

    Perhaps a wordpress update came with this theme update ??

    I have the 2.8 version of the theme working with WordPress 5.9.5.

    BTW, how I fixed it :

    • Appearance > editor for theme files
    • select “functions.php” on th right panel
    • search for “twentyten_comment” function
    • after the line “switch ( $comment->comment_type ) :”
    • replace “case ”:” with “case ‘comment’:”

    I hope this will work for you too !

    See you
