Frequently Asked Questions
Comment preferences are missing
Q.
I have my admin preferences set to allow comments, but the Comments section of the preferences does not show up.
A.
This is a bug affecting all past and present stable versions. The bug is actually quite old, undetected for some time. This is likely to do with the fact that past versions of MySQL are more forgiving, and people are updating to the newer, more strict (correct) versions.
It has been fixed in the latest development version of Textpattern, and so will be resolved in the next stable release.
The problem is simple enough to correct. For version 4.0.4, make sure line 89 of your textpattern/include/txp_prefs.php file matches.
It is always recommended that you update to use the latest stable version of Textpattern, as it includes many bug fixes (some of them security-related).
