From your WordPress dashboard, go to:
SETTINGS => DISCUSSION => Other comment settings
And check to be sure you don’t have “Automatically close comments on posts older than 14 days” (or some other number) checked.
sounds like new comment has been disabled for existing posts
if you know mysql query, you may use this query to enable comments for all posts:
UPDATEwp_postsSETcomment_status= "open" WHEREcomment_status= "closed" ANDpost_status= "publish";
refer: https://www.saotn.org/disable-wordpress-comments/#Reenable_WordPress_comments_globally`
This is unchecked “Automatically close comments on posts older than 14 days” (or some other number)”
I dont know mysql query. I dont have high knowledge of technical issues. only basic stuff as I’m still learning. Is there another way?
Thanks

HI,
The comment box on my blog post disappeared but the old comments are still there.
Only the new user can not leave a comment because the box is not there.
I’m not sure why. I checked under Discussion. The allow comment is ticked. In fact I did not change anything in the discussion.
But a week before I was trying to remove some of the plug in that I didnt use. I could be that delete the comment plug in? If so, I don’t recall which plug in it is.
The old comments are still there thought.
Someone helps please.
