 * Users can not post comments… I did scan the other postings and was able to successfully
   run the following command and still no luck..
 * UPDATE wp_posts SET comment_status = ‘open’, ping_status = ‘open’ WHERE comment_status
   = ‘closed’;
 * My site is: [http://www.top5bizops.com/blog](http://www.top5bizops.com/blog)
 * Thank you very much for helping!!

 * Thank you Ryans149!!
 * All my problems were with my theme. I have since loaded several different themes
   and they all work… except of coarse the one that made me beat my head against
   a wall for hours.
 * Thanks again and I did get your test message.
