 * First, hello to everyone! I love using WordPress as development platform for 
   my site. The problem i have is a rather strange one. Recently i downloaded the
   free theme called ”BrightSky” from KreativeThemes.com. I’ve tested it on localhost,
   and on the main site and everything worked fine. However when I tested it on 
   my blog, the comment form box was missing. Other themes on the blog don’t have
   this problem except for few. Comment box is working on the site and on the localhost
   with this theme. I believe that the issue could be with the comments.php not 
   being loaded when the theme is activated. Hope to see some answers that could
   help me get it fixed and other people with similar problem.

 * Both site and blog are on the same server. This issue is really weird, i just
   can’t figure it out.

 * Just a few questions to clarify:
 * 1. Does this issue occur in the Default theme too?
 * 2. Does disabling all plugins resolve the issue?
 * 3. Can you provide a link to your blog for further investigation?

 * 1. No it works on default theme.
    2. Nope. Also i checked the Akismet and it 
   isn’t the problem. 3. [http://blog.zeusoft.net](http://blog.zeusoft.net) (Note
   the current theme that I’m using has the comment form working. If you visit the
   main site [http://www.zeusoft.net](http://www.zeusoft.net) you’ll see theme that
   i tried to use on blog, but where the comment form doesn’t work for some strange
   reason. I’ve tested comments on the main site and it worked.) Plugins that i 
   use on the blog: All in One SEO Pack, Clean Options, Core Control, FeedBurner
   FeedSmith, Google XML Sitemaps, HTML Emails, W3 Total Cache,iRobots.txt SEO, 
   JavaScript to Footer, No Self Pings, Page Links To Robots Meta, SexyBookmarks,
   Shockingly Simple Favicon, Simple Facebook Share Button, Smart Youtube, Testimonials
   Manager, TweetMeme Retweet Button, Twitter Widget Pro, WordPress Database Backup,
   WP-Optimize, WP-Polls.

 * That is weird. I downloaded a copy of BrightSky and I don’t see anything wrong
   with the files. Try uploading a second, fresh copy of the theme alongside the
   old one. To do this, rename the theme’s folder to something like “brightsky2”,
   open the style.css file in a plain text editor and change the Theme Name to something
   like “BrightSky 2”. Then, upload and activate the theme.
 * This will hopefully tell us if the problem is related to any changes that you
   have made to the theme.
