I found a fix on another site (I will see if I can find the link) and where the Path theme uses “hybrid-core” the site was using “MYSITE_TEXTDOMAIN”. Other than that it brings the Comment button back.
Open (wp-content\themes\path\library\functions\comments.php)
Find:
‘label_submit’ => _( ‘Post Comment’, ‘hybrid-core’ ),
And on the next line at the two lines below.
I added the second and third lines below. I changed the original ‘MYSITE_TEXTDOMAIN’ to ‘hybrid-core’ like the first line.
‘label_submit’ => _( ‘Post Comment’, ‘hybrid-core’ ),
‘submit_button’ => _( ‘<input name=”%1$s” type=”submit” id=”%2$s” class=”%3$s” value=”%4$s” />’, ‘hybrid-core’ ),
‘submit_field’ => __( ‘<p class=”form-submit”>%1$s %2$s’, ‘hybrid-core’ ),
The problem is that I can’t easily update the themes like Eino or Path in WordPress.org because there are so much that have changed in the guidelines.
Anyways try this in your child theme functions.php.
/**
* Add Submit Button in Comment Form Args
* @link http://themehybrid.com/board/topics/askimet-blocking-comment-button#post-4878
*/
function prefix_comment_form_args( $args ) {
$args['class_submit'] = 'submit';
$args['name_submit'] = 'submit';
$args['submit_button'] = '<input name="%1$s" type="submit" id="%2$s" class="%3$s" value="%4$s" />';
$args['submit_field'] = '<p class="form-submit">%1$s %2$s</p>';
return $args;
}
add_filter( 'comment_form_defaults', 'prefix_comment_form_args', 11 );
