Hello,

I am using Matra 2.0 and WordPress 3.5.1. Recently I reactivated my blog (kazymjir.com) after a few months break. After making update I noticed that my old comments are not displaying on the page, while there is message saying that I have comments (“X Responses to Y”). While I add new comments everything works properly. All my previous comments was approved and not marked as spam.

I tried disabling all plugins and problem still persisted. Then I tried to switch to default theme (Seven Eleven) and the comment box displayed correctly.

After doing some research I found source of the problem, it’s located in database, in “wp_comments table”. The new comments that was showing up correctly have column “comment_type” leaved blank, while the comments that was not displaying had value “comment”. After clearing “comment_type” column for all comments the problem got fixed.

Please consider examining this problem, maybe you can get it fixed in new release.

Thank you a lot for your work at the Mantra theme,
Adam

I just noticed how many grammar mistakes I did. Sorry for my English.

Mantra (and themes in general) doesn’t mess around with anything database related.

We have been using Mantra and WordPress on this website (and on the previous domain) since Mantra was created… and that was 2 years ago. Old comments are still readable and nothing changed.

Perhaps you had some comments related plugin that messed with those fields which you uninstalled/disabled in the meantime.

I have this same issue and it just occurred if you visit the site, look at http://www.itsallaboutmusic.net/advertise-with-us/ The air play for bands tab and you cant see any comments unless you click the, # comments if the post has comments then they show up. Did WordPress Change something or is this a theme issue? I searched WP and found nothing.

Appreciate any feedback.

Comment code is below:

 * The area of the page that contains both current comments

			<div id="comments">

<?php if ( post_password_required() ) : ?>

<?php

		/* Stop the rest of comments.php from being processed,

Fixed, it was a setting in the Discussion settings.
