• Since the upgrade, outsider comments are getting attached to a header image in the theme, rather than to the post they’re commenting on.

    None of the posts have featured images,BTW. And all comments seem to be attached to a single JPG file used as a header image (I have >100 header images that appear randomly, but only this one seems to have attachments).

    How to I reset the comments so they get attached to the proper post, and how do I prevent this in future? I’m using Theme 2011 and WP 3.5.2.

    Thanks

    Since the upgrade, outsider comments are getting attached to a header image in the theme, rather than to the post they’re commenting on.

    That’s not good. Sounds like the CSS on your Twenty Eleven theme gone awry.

    Can you provide a link to illustrate that happening?

    Why would it be a CSS error? Strikes me more likely to be a SQL error.

    I have changed my theme to Twenty Twelve but the problem persists, As admin, I can comment and it appears with the post. But guests (subscribers) comments all get attached to the same header image, even after the theme change.

    Is there some PHP file I can manually change to fix this? Or perhaps someone can suggest a plug-in that will allow me to move comments.

    Added a reply to a reader’s comment today and it attached to the image, even though the image is not being used as a header image any more in the new theme.

    Can someone please direct me to the PHP file that manages comments and replies to comments?

    Does it for my own replies, too.
