 * Comments are seemingly arbitrarily on or off on various post, although “allow
   comments” and “allow pings” are checked on all of them. Behavior prior to and
   after upgrade to 3.04.
 * Example: [http://chefspro.com/?p=436](http://chefspro.com/?p=436) (comments closed)
   and
    [http://chefspro.com/?p=454](http://chefspro.com/?p=454) (comments not closed).
 * Using latest version of suffusion.
 * I certainly hope someone has an answer.

 * Have you tried:
 * – deactivating **all** plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works,
   re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).
 * – switching to the Twenty Ten theme to rule out any theme-specific problems?
 * – [resetting the plugins folder](http://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F)
   by FTP or PhpMyAdmin? Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause
   problems.

 * Thank you very much.
 * I have deactivated all plugins but still have this arbitrary behavior:
    [http://chefspro.com/](http://chefspro.com/)
   on the whole, more recent blogs seem to be comment enabled. Twenty ten is a good
   idea. How would I rest the plugin folder? I have PHP but generally use cpanel..
   can it be done through wp-admin, or how?

 * There seems to have been an open ” in one of the plugins, but removing them has
   had no impact. Twenty Ten shows the same behavior, so it is not theme specific.

 * Sorry if I’m asking the obvious but have you checked your configurations in Settings-
   >Discussion? Specifically the “Automatically close comments on articles older
   than [] days` checkbox?
