So I went with samfusion’s option. Enabled guest commenting and that works great, I will leave things like that. And it still shows the avatars we had set if you use your email address and that is all I really wanted. Thanks for your time though voodoo. You are probably right but I got really lazy on this one, just going the easy route. Thanks
to Rev. Voodoo: The only plugins I’m using are WP-Polls, which I have been using since before I started customizing and FeedBurner Category plugin. I will try to disable everything though.
Update: once I log in and it takes me back to the post with no Dashboard at the top, I can refresh the page and that will bring up the dashboard and I can now comment. If that helps any. But of course, I still would like to be able to login and go straight to the comment box at the bottom like it did before.
Hmm, I see wp_footer in the footer.php and wp_head in header.php if thats what you’re asking. Should they be before or after certain other code or does it not matter where they go?
