Update to 1.7.5 seems to have disabled comments in Wordpress

  1. I just updated to 1.7.5 and suddenly all new Wordpress posts are missing the comment form. My theme settings haven't changed; everything is marked to allow comments on posts. All posts created before I updated include the comment form. I think this may be a bug in 1.7.5. Suggestions? Help?

  2. Nevermind. Mea culpa. Did a bit more research. Turns out I had to go into Wordpress theme settings/discussion and uncheck "Automatically close comments older than __ days." Don't have any idea why that fixed the problem, since I didn't have the problem before, but it did fix the problem. Please close this tread. Thanks!
