Community Forums

I would like to preserve the option for visitors to use the little left/right arrows to scroll through posts. I changed the date from 26 March to Feb. 6 on the post you made. Neither of them show the comments feature. I regularly edit posts after they are categorized as blogs, and I cannot have the comments feature disappearing when I edit.

1st) With /asking-churchs-supreme-court-to-protect-marriage-from-trigger-happy-tribunals/, I changed the category to “catholic”. Then, I updated and viewed the post. There is no comments section, whatsoever, under my post. Because I need this to be categorized as “blog” to appear on my homepage, I changed the category back to “blog” and updated post.

2nd) With /update-constitutional-challenge-massachusetts/ , I changed the category to “catholic”. Then, I updated and viewed the post. There is still no option to add new comments, nor reply to existing comments. Because I need this to be categorized as “blog” to appear on my homepage, I changed the category back to “blog” and updated post.

This is baimac. Something is still not working with our comments feature.

In the last couple weeks, I’ve made posts that are password protected for another project, but you can see the problem.

password Bai, has only old comments, but no option to reply

password Bai2, has no comments fields at all.

no password, seems to be working fine (for now)

From what I see, when I make a new post, the comments works fine. However, old posts (eg. blog posts) show either no comments field at the bottom at all, or only show old comments with no option to reply. I’m not terribly concerned about old posts not having the comments feature, but I am very interested in ensuring that new posts keep a functioning comments section at the bottom. It is a total mystery to me why they are disappearing.

This is customer (baimac). I am trying to avoid having to hire a freelancer web-developer every time you update Specular theme. Can you confirm that whatever you fixed will stay fixed the next time I (or freelancer web-developer) install your future updates of Specular and the carousel/slider feature will not ‘break’ my homepage. Is that right?

When I open this page you made that shows AAA https://marysadvocates.org/aaa/ , I see the carousel/slider feature working properly. However, is this only happening because of the change in the code that web-developer freelancer R.V. made? I described to you how he changed line 241 in my above message (8:44 am Ohio time) “wp-content/plugins/specular-wpbakery-addons/includes/codeless-slider/codeless_slider.php”

I want to avoid the problem of having to hire a web-developer to make a custom update to our site every time we upload a newer version of the Specular theme. From what I understand, if you don’t correct the code on your end in the next update, my carousel/slider feature will keep failing.
