@vupdraft – That’s weird because WordPress said it’s up to date and didn’t even give me the option of updating in the plugin panel. I downloaded the new version and updated manually. It’s working now.

Thank you! I appreciate the help 🙂

Here it is: in the phpmyadmin under wp-comments it says:

Can’t open file “wp-comments.MYI” (errno:145) and under the table where records – type- collation – size all fields are blank and it says “in use”

Where do I go from here?

When I (or anyone) try to post a comment on an earlier post where the comments are still open, the page just refreshes back to the post. I get the e-mail saying I have a comment awaitig moderation, but it does not list who left it or what they said, just some blank quotation marks.

When I click on the link in the e-mail to the comment awaiting moderation I get this: “Oops, no comment with this ID.”

When I try to open my comments in the admin area, where once was dozens of comments in various posts and a daily grind of spam, it now says:

“All | Pending (0) | Approved | Spam (0) | Trash (0)Search Comments:

Check for Spam
No comments found.”

Ideas?

No, I closed the comments because my readers keep telling me they can’t comment, and I keep getting blank moderate comment e-mails. Trying to mitigate some frustration while I stumble around to try to figure this out.

When I open the comments panel in admin, there are no old comments, and the supposed new ones don’t show up anywhere. Could the whole database go missing?
