Title: Comment gets stuck at https://randomwpsite.com/wp-comments-post.php Last modified: April 27, 2019 --- # Comment gets stuck at https://randomwpsite.com/wp-comments-post.php * Resolved [viratraaz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/viratraaz/) * (@viratraaz) * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comment-gets-stuck-at-https-randomwpsite-com-wp-comments-post-php/) * After looking everything, I found that: there is a function called wp_new_comment( $commentdata, $avoid_die = false ) in site_directory/wp-includes/comment.php where do_action( ‘comment_post’, $comment_ID, $commentdata[‘comment_approved’], $commentdata ); is not working. I want to know where this function is defined and where the file is included? According to my analysis ‘do_action’ function is being called from site_directory/wp-includes/plugin.php but I don’t see enough arguments in the defined function. * Please help. * {temporary solution: comment line do_action( ‘comment_post’, $comment_ID, $commentdata[‘ comment_approved’], $commentdata ); which is in wp_new_comment( $commentdata, $avoid_die = false ) function from file site_directory/wp-includes/comment.php} Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 21 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comment-gets-stuck-at-https-randomwpsite-com-wp-comments-post-php/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comment-gets-stuck-at-https-randomwpsite-com-wp-comments-post-php/page/2/?output_format=md) * [Davood Denavi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/binarywc/) * (@binarywc) * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comment-gets-stuck-at-https-randomwpsite-com-wp-comments-post-php/#post-11472541) * It is not advised to edit core WP files such as comment.php. * That said, this sounds like a potential plugin or theme conflict.

It does not run it by default. You have to be sure you are running the site using a default WP theme (it will only change the theme for the logged in user) Installing and activating the plugin does not activate the troubleshooter you have to choose to use the troubleshooting mode which will deactivate all plugins and the active theme (unless the active theme is a default theme). * Thread Starter [viratraaz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/viratraaz/) * (@viratraaz) * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comment-gets-stuck-at-https-randomwpsite-com-wp-comments-post-php/#post-11472713) * Open `site_directory/wp-includes/comment.php` * Search for `wp_new_comment( $commentdata, $avoid_die = false ){....}` * read this function * see the last second line, it is `do_action( ‘comment_post’, $comment_ID, $commentdata[‘ comment_approved’], $commentdata );` * If I remove/comment this line, everything works great. * **Secondly:** I followed your suggestion I installed plugin from [https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/) then I activated the plugin. after that I started troubleshooting, I got a message [https://ibb.co/hDJsgg9](https://ibb.co/hDJsgg9) then I test the bug again.

So please check your site using a security plugin such as Sucuri or WordFence to check and be sure your site has not been compromised. * Moderator [Samuel Wood (Otto)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/otto42/) * (@otto42) * WordPress.org Admin * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comment-gets-stuck-at-https-randomwpsite-com-wp-comments-post-php/page/2/#post-11472800) * [@viratraaz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/viratraaz/) There is nothing wrong with the do_action line. This is a standard call to invoke the [WordPress Action Hook](https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/hooks/actions/). * If you have problems at this point in the code, then you have a plugin or some other code that is hooked to the comment_post action which is causing the problem. This could be an anti-spam plugin such as akismet, or anything else that modifies the way your site handles comments. * Instead of messing with the core code, try disabling your plugins to find the actual source of the problem. Re-enable them one at a time until the problem recurs, and then you will know where the issue really is. * [Shamim Hasan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shamim51/) * (@shamim51) * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comment-gets-stuck-at-https-randomwpsite-com-wp-comments-post-php/#post-11472828) * [@viratraaz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/viratraaz/) What you see when you post comment?
