    Hi All. We just upgraded a WordPress multisite test environment from 3.0.4 to 3.1.4. I just realized in testing out some of our plugins that visitors are unable to add a comment if there is no comment already. If there is a comment (as in the Hello World post), then the comment box appears.

    I can see in the html that in the comments div there is a comments are closed tag, but given the settings that I've chosen (allowed comments on new articles, don't have to be logged in to comment), it shouldn't be there.

    <div id="comments">
    <p class="nocomments">Comments are closed.</p>

    In the page with a comment already, the correct <div id = "resond"> is there.

    I've already disabled all plugins to see if any of them were an issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    moving to multisite section.

    Test the same issue with the default theme.

    Thanks Andrea- I did that already. Tested with a few themes including the default twentyten theme.

    Then you'll have to disable every pluigns. yes, all of them, and be on the default theme to check.

    Andrea- this is exactly what I did. Here is the site: http://wpdev.oxy.edu/31testing/ I have deactivated all plugins as well as temporarily removed all of the mu-plugins.
