Issues with Job Listing Comment | WordPress.org

I have two separate yet related issues. It seems like all job postings used to default with comments turned on (as I would like). However, that function seems to not be working any more on my site, and I do not see an option in the settings to turn it back on.

Could someone point me in the right direction?

With that in mind, I probably have around 40 or 50 job postings with comments turned off. Is there a way to turn comments on for all of those jobs without clicking into each job individually?

@mgmtphdjobs unless I’m mistaken comments are always turned off on listings, and I don’t actually believe there is a setting for this. You can see here comments are turned off when listings are saved: https://github.com/Automattic/WP-Job-Manager/blob/6652a91f017060a8e9997f924c4f442795e51f8f/includes/forms/class-wp-job-manager-form-submit-job.php#L514

If you wanted to turn comments on you would need to use the submit_job_form_save_job_data in order to due so.

If you wanted to turn comments on for all listings you would need to run a query along the lines of UPDATE wp_posts SET comment_status = 'open' WHERE post_type = 'job_listing'. I haven’t tested this so you should make sure to remove the SET and run this as a SELECT statement first.
