I'm having an issue on my website.
Users can leave comments on my posts, but nobody can reply to those top level comments. I can reply to comments through the wordpress dashboard, but also cannot do it through the main site itself.
Here is an example: https://themeasureofaplan.com/net-worth-scenario-tool/
If you click the "reply" link underneath any of the comments, nothing happens...
This is a wordpress site, and I built a custom theme by following some tutorials online.
The code in my comments.php file is as follows:
<?php
/**
*
* Comments themplate - Adapted Version of Kubrick's
*
* There are 2 distinct sections after the protection area ::
* Display Comments is a loop surrounding the wp_list_comments() function
* The Form/Login section uses comment_form() to do everything
* ( Finally the RSS link is at the end of the page )
*
* */
// ########## Do not delete these lines
if (isset($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']) && 'comments.php' == basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'])){
die ('Please do not load this page directly. Thanks!'); }
if ( post_password_required() ) { ?>
<p class="nocomments"><?php _e('This post is password protected. Enter the password to view comments.', 'kubrick'); ?></p>
<?php
return; }
// ########## End do not delete section
// Display Comments Section
?> <div class="comment-section-area">
<?php echo "<h2 class='comment-intro-header'>Comment Section</h2>";
if ( have_comments() ) : ?>
<h3 id="comments"><?php comments_number('No Responses', 'One Response', '% Responses');?> <?php printf('to “%s”', the_title('', '', false)); ?></h3>
<div class="navigation">
<div class="alignleft"><?php previous_comments_link() ?></div>
<div class="alignright"><?php next_comments_link() ?></div>
</div>
<ol class="commentlist">
<?php
wp_list_comments(array(
// see http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_list_comments
'login_text' => 'Login to reply',
'callback' => null,
'end-callback' => null,
'type' => 'all',
'avatar_size' => 32,
'reverse_top_level' => null,
'reverse_children' => null
));
?>
</ol>
<div class="navigation">
<div class="alignleft"><?php previous_comments_link() ?></div>
<div class="alignright"><?php next_comments_link() ?></div>
</div>
<?php
if ( ! comments_open() ) : // There are comments but comments are now closed
echo"<p class='nocomments'>Comments are closed.</p>";
endif;
else : // I.E. There are no Comments
if ( comments_open() ) : // Comments are open, but there are none yet
echo"<p class='no-comment-open-section'>Be the first to write a comment.</p>";
else : // comments are closed
echo"<p class='no-comment-closed-section'>Comments are closed.</p>";
endif;
endif;
// Display Form/Login info Section
// the comment_form() function handles this and can be used without any paramaters simply as "comment_form()"
comment_form(array(
// see codex http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/comment_form for default values
// tutorial here http://blogaliving.com/wordpress-adding-comment_form-theme/
'comment_field' => '<p><textarea name="comment" id="comment" cols="45" rows="10" tabindex="4" aria-required="true"></textarea></p>',
'label_submit' => 'Submit Comment',
'comment_notes_after' => ''
));
// RSS comments link
echo '<div class="comments_rss">';
comments_rss_link('Comments RSS Feed');
echo '</div>';
?> </div>
Any ideas about how to fix this?
Thanks in advance!
When you click on add comment you have an error on the console :
Uncaught ReferenceError: addComment is not defined at HTMLAnchorElement.onclick
So you try on the code to run a function in javascript, and this function is not defined in your javascript code.
