 * Is there a way in Sportspress to enable comments on future and upcoming events?
   
   I’ve noticed that commenting is allowed only events that has already been. If
   trying to comment future event (event that hasn’t happened yet) page goes to 
   white blank site mysite/wp-comments-post.php

 * Hi!
 * Thanks for reaching out!
 * That’s a good question! I believe WP itself locks this. I’m going to check with
   our dev team if there’s any way around it.
 * Thanks!

 * There is a solution in the following link:

 * There is also a comment at the end of the post which mention that it worked in
   Sportpress!

 * Thanks, now i can comment on future events.
    Only 2 minuses that i have found.
 * First:
    When making a comment, now it directs me to this window: “Oops! That 
   page can’t be found. It looks like nothing was found at this location. Maybe 
   try one of the links below or a search?” But when i go back and refresh site,
   the comment is shown there.
 * Second:
    Comments posted on future events are not showing in latest comments 
   widget
 * Thanks in advance!

 * Hi!
 * Thanks for your reply!
 * As for the wrong URL, probably it has to do with this line:
    wp_safe_redirect(
   $location );
 * The recent comments widget probably excludes the scheduled posts from its search,
   so you’ll need some custom code for that as well.
 * Overall this is considered a customization, although it would be a great addition
   to our plugin. Please consider adding it to our ideaboard:

 * Thanks!
