Comment Bug in 4.0.6?

I cannot get the comment section to show up in my installation of textpattern (4.0.6).

I found this resource (http://textpattern.com/faq/257/comment-preferences-are-missing) that speaks of a bug in 4.0.4 – it sounds exactly like the problem I have. Is anybody aware wether this bug still exists in 4.0.6 and has a solution? Unfortunately the link in the articel above to a solution is dead, so if anyone could post a working link or solution, I’d be very glad.

Thank you

Re: Comment Bug in 4.0.6?

In the Preferences, on the first “tab” there’s an option called “Accept comments YES/NO”… have you set that to YES?

Yes, I did. I double-checked ALL settings, even in the database to make sure that’s not the issue… ;-(

Re: Comment Bug in 4.0.6?

In the write tab on the right hand side at the bottom of the column there is a section called “More” where you can turn comments on or off per article basis… did you check there?
