Hmmm. This is one of my issues too. I’m currently testing 1.5 with Linux/xampp and solving it is on my to-do list. Also, my comments pop-up isn’t styled. It feels like a simple mistake or two somewhere, so I’m going to go through the changes again very carefully line by line.
Update:
I changed my “comments.php” to the “comments.php” that was packaged with the default template. I can see my old comments now, but the other info is still missing.

Thanks mikep. I agree, it has to be something simple.
Cracked it. Comments-popup must contain the line
‘@import url( <?php bloginfo(‘stylesheet_url’); ?> );’ to refer to the style. And I replaced the old comments.php with the new 1.5 version. Now for more testing… I like what I see in 1.5!
Ok, finally found a solution:
1) Go to wp-comments-post.php
Delete out …
// If the user is logged in
get_currentuserinfo();
if ( $user_ID ) :
$comment_author = addslashes($user_identity);
$comment_author_email = addslashes($user_email);
$comment_author_url = addslashes(str_replace(’http://’, ‘’, $user_url));
else :
if ( get_option(’comment_registration’) )
die( __(’Sorry, you must be logged in to post a comment.’) );
endif;
Then save and upload.
2) Next go to your comments.php for each theme you want to fix and delete out:
< ?php else : ? >
I can’t be sure it will work for everyone, but it worked for my converted 1.2 template and the default.
