Hi,

I'm having an issue with my site where I can see my WPdiscuz comments just fine, but the comment box where you type the comments has disappeared. 

I've followed all the instructions here https://gvectors.com/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/resolved-wpdiscuz-comment-form-is-missing/ and it's still missing.

If it helps I'm using the OnFleek Wordpress theme. What's weird is that the comment box field used to be there, but I recently did a clear out of old inactive plugins that I didn't use and since then it seems to have disappeared. Could that have caused it? If so I can't remember which plugins I removed as it was a while ago.

I've also deactivated and removed WPDiscuz and then reinstalled the plugin. That didn't work.

Hi @stableton,

Please leave some example URL to allow us to check it.

No. I don't think that the problem is caused because of deleting the plugins. Probably you've updated some plugins or active theme and it caused the issue.

Hi @Astghik,

Here is a link https://www.stablevehiclecontracts.co.uk/blog/car-tyre-pressure-guide/

As you'll see there is a comment from when someone left one when our comment box was working, but now it has disappeared. I don't think it's any CSS rules either, I've had a look. We are using display: none on our old comment box as this was part of the Wordpress theme.

@stableton,

Check the WordPress post "Allow Comments" option. This option is located on all posts/pages edit page.

1) Make sure the "Discussions" admin-box is allowed using "Screen Options" in "Edit Post" admin page:

wpDiscuz-form-missing

2) Find the "Discussions" admin-box below and make sure "Allow Comments" option is turned on.

wpDiscuz-form-missing-2

Hi @Astghik,

This has always been toggled on.
