For some reason some of my posts have suddenly and rather randomly decided to remove the comments option. This is not intentional. All options are correctly set and haven’t changed. So I can only assume Skynet or Ultron have started taking over the worlds IT. Lord knows why they would bother with my ancient tech. Anyway I’m trying to sort it. Sorry.

I’ve noticed it on several blogs and thought some people deliberately removed the comments option on some of their posts.
Weird.

You can. But I haven’t. It’s bizarre this one is exactly the same setup as the last post yet the one before has no comment box.

Aaaaah…just scrolled down to your other post and now I understand.
Well…may I ask…I was a tiny weenie bit confused, are you talking about how many miles you have clocked up on a static exercise bike? 280 miles is amazing if that is the case.
My sister and my brother-in law worked on the Isle of Sheppey and somewhere near Dover. I visited them in both areas (they were in both locations for a few months).

Yes it’s a static, ball breaker of a torture rack. But it works and it’s git me to France so that’s kinda cool. Sheppey is nice. It sort of feels like it should be 200 miles north, that’s everything except the accents and the beer.

That has happened to me before too – as the poster and as the commenter – sometimes the option to leave a comment or allow a comment just shuts off. Not sure why?

So, with regard to Switzerland. I’ve not been there, but what you show is essentially what I expect. I knew about the lakes, which are the purview of the Swiss Navy. Yes, there is such an entity.

Curious, but generally there is usually a simple explanation – it’s just that finding it is not always that ‘simple’!!
When you are writing a new post , if you open ‘Settings’ there is a drop down menu that has ‘More Options’ at the bottom, open that and half way down there is a section titled “Discussion’ that has 2 checkboxes; one is for allowing comments. That may somehow have become unchecked on the previous post? Is that any help??
I really love when machines that have performed exactly the same way for months or years suddenly decide to do things differently for no obvious reason. 🔪 🔪 🔪

Yep set right. In fact nothing has changed yet get these random posts which go mad. Clearly it happens to others sometimes. The advice seems to be. Delete offending post and redo then delete app and reinstall. Can’t be a***d will just hopefully add a comments post after it happens.

WordPress is quirky. Roger kept having troubles leaving comments on certain blogs … they would either go to spam or into cyberspace, and now David is having the same troubles, but only on a couple of blogs. If it continues, try contacting WP’s help desk.
