    Sorry about that double-thread post, I was having server connection slowdowns.

    (So mods may want to delete the thread duplicate)

    No one else have this problem? I can’t find its source, so I’d really appreciate any help.

    Here is my comments.php code, in case it has something to do with my theme:

    <?php // Do not delete these lines
     if ('comments.php' == basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']))
      die ('Please do not load this page directly. Thanks!');
    
            if (!empty($post->post_password)) { // if there's a password
                if ($_COOKIE['wp-postpass_'.$cookiehash] != $post->post_password) {  // and it doesn't match the cookie
        ?>
    
        <p class="nocomments"><?php _e("This post is password protected. Enter the password to view comments."); ?><p>
    
        <?php
        return;
                }
            }
    
      /* This variable is for alternating comment background */
      $oddcomment = "graybox";
    ?>
    
    <?php if ($comments) : ?>
     <a name="comments"></a><h2><?php comments_number('No Responses','One Response','% Responses' );?></h2>
    
     <ol class="commentlist">
    
     <?php foreach ($comments as $comment) : ?>
    
      <li class="<?=$oddcomment;?>">
       <a name="comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>"></a><cite><?php comment_author_link() ?></cite> Says:<br />

       <small class="commentmetadata"><a href="#comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>" title=""><?php comment_date('F jS, Y') ?> at <?php comment_time() ?></a> <?php edit_comment_link('e','',''); ?></small>

      </li>
    
      <?php /* Changes every other comment to a different class */
       if("graybox" == $oddcomment) {$oddcomment="";}

     <?php endforeach; /* end for each comment */ ?>

      <p class="nocomments">Comments are closed.</p>
    
     <?php endif; ?>

    Do you have the Admin SSL plugin installed and running?

    Thread Starter James

    (@jamestl2)

    Thanks for responding,
    Don’t have a plugin like that which I’m aware of 🙂

    (Although I do have the WP_SMF plugin installed, if that is somehow affecting my comments.)

    Wish I could be be helpful; I ran into that issue with Admin SSL, it turned out to be a cookie issue.

    What was your cookie issue? Maybe mine is having a similar problem.

    It was convoluted: See http://haris.tv/2007/04/24/admin-ssl-new-wordpress-plugin/ comment #17.

    Logged in users where setting their cookie with SSL, after making that change wp-comments-post.php was not SSL so the logged in users could not leave a comment as it thought they were not filling out a name and e-mail address.

    The fix was a simple if (is_user_logged_in()) check so that logged in users would now submit comments using SSL.

    Dunno if it’s applicable to your situation but it may be that the authenticated users are not having their cookie set correctly.

    Looked at the code, but it didn’t seem to solve my problem, tried placing that line of code in a few places but didn’t seem to make a difference.

    Thanks for the suggestion, anyway, though.

    Anyone else get any errors similar to mine?

    Does it have to do with changing something with my comments.php file I listed above?

    I apologize if I seem like I’m getting desperate here, but I would really like to have access to my comment profile.
