 * When I write a post in the quick post widget, people are not able to comment 
   on them. This does not occur when I use the normal post method though the dashboard.
 * What am I doing wrong?

 * The Quick Post Widget allows commenting on posts.
    It inherits the global commenting
   settings of your site. If you configured your site to allow comments on new articles,
   posts created with the widget should have commenting on. If you disabled comments
   on new articles, posts created with the widget have commenting off.

 * I found out the problem. I had disabled comments for posts older than 14 days.
   Since Quick Post Widget has a bug i version 1.9 that sets the post date to 1999,
   comments were disabled… I read that the post date bug should be fixed in version
   1.9.1

 * Yesterday I released version 1.9.1 which solves the post date bug.
