 * any suggestion on the plugin to use for comments quicktags?
 * I tried using the comments quicktags from here
 * [http://www.redalt.com/downloads/](http://www.redalt.com/downloads/)
 * But…
 * I’ve downloaded the latest version on the dl page, upload the files and activated
   it but the quicktags are not showing up on my comments page either. Is there 
   a code or something I should add to my comments template to run it? Thank you
   🙂
 * I’m using wp 2.0

 * I downloaded and activated on my test blog and all went well. When I look at 
   your source I don’t see any of the code that was added to mine upon activation.
 * I’m wondering if some other plugin you have installed might be affecting it. 
   Like maybe that emoticon bar. Try to deactivate it and see what happens.
 * Sorry I can’t be of more help.

 * Hmm.. no idea either, I don’t think its the smilies though because lots of people
   are running wp grins with the quicktags. Can’t get it to work, the quicktags 
   just don’t appear. Help anyone?

 * I know this sounds trite, but you could disable all your plugins, activate your
   comments quicktags to see if it works, then if successful, you could re-activate
   your plugins one by one, until you find the culprit.

 * TRied that but couldn’t found the error either
 * I uploaded a copy of my comments template
 * [http://liberta.espoireve.com/comments.txt](http://liberta.espoireve.com/comments.txt)
 * Did I miss out something that needs to get it working?
 * Thanks

 * So you disabled ALL your plugins, activate ONLY comments quicktags and it worked
   like a charm?
 * After successfully getting it to work, you then activated all your plugins, **
   one by one**, checked output on your site per individual plugin, and now it doesn’t
   work, right?
 * If that’s the case, I’d imagine there’s a conflict somewhere with another plugin.
   By activating them one by one, you’d have come across the conflicting plugin.
   
   Then its just a matter of which plugin is more important to you.
 * If by some chance your comments plugin didn’t work, while having NO OTHER plugin
   running, I would go back to the original source and download the file again, 
   making sure there’s no whitespace if you copy&pasted a text file then converted
   it into php and upload again.

 * It don’t work with all de-activated?
 * Checked, no white space..

   something =x

 * Did you insert relevant quicktag code into your comments.php? Just before <form/
   and probably after comment <textarea, depending on where you want the quicktags
   to appear?

 * It works automatically. But out of the box it does nothing but add an admin menu.
   Within that menu you need to manually add thh quicktags you would like.

 * Erm, as in? I don’t get it. So what do I have to do to get it working? Thanks..
 * I’m referring to comments quicktag, not the admin quicktags 🙂

 * @ Truth – wanna know what’s _really_ weird? I thought I’d download the comments
   quicktags plugin myself to see if I could get them it work on my site, so I could
   help you out, and glory be…
 * I uploaded, activated the plugin, refreshed my site – got a fatal error about
   line 65, went to my plugins page to disable the plugin and whatya know. The plugin’s
   disappeared.
 * That’s right. Spoof! Gone. Zapo.
 * Not there anymore, Jan.
 * Gotta love those js quicktags. I think I’ll stick to html.
 * Eekk! Update;
 * I went to delete the darn thing via FTP and its not even in my plugins folder
   on my server – so where the hell did it go?
 * ——–
 * _Duh!_ Found it. I need to wear my glasses more 🙁

 * Another update – after opening up the plugin and actually reading the contents–
   which helps, double _Duh!_ – I noticed that it’s referring to wp-includes/js/
   quicktags.js instead of wp-includes/js_quicktags.js.
 * So if I change it to, say, wp-admin/js_quicktags.js which is where I have my 
   js_quicktags.js file, it just might work.
 * I’ll get back to ya all.

 * ok. Still having probs, too. The prevous line error I mentioned is **64** not
   65.
 * This is the culprit: `$thisurl = get_settings('siteurl') . '/wp-content/plugins/'.
   plugin_basename(__FILE__);`
 * [@truth](https://wordpress.org/support/users/truth/) did you pull any errors?

 * Thanks katie1 for the response 🙂
 * I’m using this one here
 * [http://www.redalt.com/downloads/](http://www.redalt.com/downloads/)
 * it doesn’t have the js_quicktags.js though…
 * my quicktags.js is inside
 * wp-includes/js/quicktags.js
 * don’t have any errors when I run mine though that’s why I find it weird. No errors
   or anything, it just don’t work.

 * Una solucion es cambiar la linea
 * ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ . plugin_basename(__FILE__);
 * por
 * ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ . basename(__FILE__);
 * eso funciono para mi, por lo menos. Si quieren agradecer ir a [COLABORAME](http://www.colaborame.tk)
