    Hi Brajesh,

    Thanks for getting Buddyblog working great. I was wondering if the comments default could be set to show comments. They would not display on my posts until I changed “Allow post author to enable/disable comment?” to Yes. I don’t want authors to change settings, but I want a comments box to show.

    You can let me know what to change in the code. Thanks in advance!

    Hi Lambert,
    Thank you for asking.

    You do not need any code for this. Please visit Settings and set these tow options

    
Comment status? - Set it to Open
Allow post author to enable/disable comment? - Set it to no

    That should take care of it. Please do let me know if that does not work.

    I have these settings enabled, but new posts are published without comments field showing. Comments do not display on my posts until I select “Allow comments?” in WP admin/edit post. WP Discussion settings are also set to “Allow people to post comments on new articles.”

    Your plugin works great except for this.

    Hi Denis,
    I am sorry for the inconvenience. Will be testing again and will get back to you.

    Thank you

    This issue is still not resolved.

    Comments are not enabled by default on new posts when they are created on the front end with BuddyBlog. Comments are available by default on new posts created in the admin.

    I have these settings:

    admin/settings/discussion: Allow people to post comments on new articles YES

    admin/settings/buddyblog: Comment status OPEN, Allow post author to enable/disable comment? NO

    In admin/edit post, Allow comments checkbox is deselected by default on new posts created on front end. If I select it, comments are enabled for that post.

    Like I said, your plugin works great except for this. Please help!

    Hi Brajesh,

    I posted about this more than 2 months ago. You have promised to look into it twice, but there still isn’t a solution to this.

    Can you help?

    Publishing new posts without the comments field displaying is a major drawback to this otherwise fine plugin.

    Hi Denis,
    I am sorry I forgot to reply.

    I tested 1.1.5 again with the settings and It is working fine for me. Is your permalink set to show the single post on user profile?

    I tested when the permalink was not set to profile.

    “Is your permalink set to show the single post on user profile?”

    I don’t understand this. Where would I check/change this setting?
