Can preview new comment but not submit it.

Hi,

I’m trying to make each article page display the comments plus the comment form. Both display: http://urbangriffin.com/test/ , but when you submit a comment, it takes you to http://urbangriffin.com/test/#cpreview where you can either only see the previously posted comments or a preview of your own, but no submit button anywhere. I understand that in the case of the frontpage it should bug, but it does it on archived articles as well…

I’m using the default forms (comments, comments_display and comment_form), the comment type is set to ‘Nopup’ and automatic appending is disabled.

I don’t understand why it gets stuck at that stage given I’m using default forms. It should work.

That is how it is supposed to work. Hit “Preview” and see what happens. FAQ.

Oh, finally it works. I do wonder though why the preview is displayed at the top of the body. Is it possible to have the comment preview stay in the comment area, in the bottom right hand where the form was originally positionned ?

Re: Can preview new comment but not submit it.

Thank you for your help, I got it all working like I wanted. This was all very basic I suppose, but it’s a bit hard getting my head around these tags again months after the first design. It’s all muddled. ;)
