# Comments box is missing

 * Hi. I hope you are doing well.
 * Just a quick question. I post at Hotair.com’s blog which uses wordpress and at
   the bottom of each post is a comment box. You login in order to post. Lately 
   the comment box is missing. I’ll login, but will not be able to post. I’ve used
   two different browsers, cleared cookies, cache, reloaded the browser, etc. The
   comment box is not there (for me it seems because people are still posting). 
   So i am wondering if this is just a matter of them blocking me from commenting?
   Is it possible to hide the comment box from individual posters? Or is this something
   more computer related? Thank you so much.

 * Not that I know of, but they may have some extra code for that. Of note:
 * > You must be logged in and have JavaScript enabled to post a comment.
 * Make sure you have JS as well. And I would just ask them if there’s a reason 
   you can’t comment.
 * Also, you can turn off comments per POST certainly.

 * Hi, thanks Ipstenu.
 * Ok, so they can turn off comments per POST, but they most likely cannot hide 
   the comment box from individual posters. So they are probably not blocking me
   from commenting. I mean, I can still login. I just can’t see the comment box 
   at the bottom of each post. It’s missing. You mentioned something interesting
   Ipstenu. When I do login, instead of seeing the comment box at the bottom of 
   each post, I see this message in its place. I see this message where the comment
   box should be after logging in.
 * > You must be logged in and have JavaScript enabled to post a comment.
 * If I was logged in would I have a message like that or would it be something 
   else? I login, I see my control panel profile, but when I go to the actual blog
   to post there is no comment box and I see the message above. Is that message 
   displayed after a person logs in? I wonder if this is a cookie problem. Thanks
   so much.

 * PS, I will eventually email them I just wanna educate myself a little first. 
   Maybe I can adjust something in my browser and fix it. It might be something 
   on my side of things. Thanks again for any insight.

 * Try Chrome (or any other browser).
 * I presume, as I have no account there, that if you logged in you’d see something
   else, UNLESS your browser doesn’t meet the requirements.

 * Yeah, I would assume you’d see something else too. Too bad I can’t remember from
   when I was able to see the comment box. Well, thanks Ipstenu. I appreciate your
   input. Have a nice day! God bless you!

 * Ipstenu, are you there? I just had a quick
    question. It won’t take long. Thank
   you.
