the value should be <?php echo $id; ?>
it’s empty… after setting it to ID of my post I had Invalid Data: Please go back and try again. error.
So… WP Captcha Free is spoiling the code now.
Any ideas how to fix it without disabling the plugin?
The list of plugins I have (might help?) :
Collapsing Categories 0.6.3
Evermore 2.2
Get Recent Comments 2.0.5
Google Analytics for WordPress 2.9.1
List Subpages 1.0
My Custom Widgets 1.8.1
Robots Meta 3.0.11
Subscribe To Comments 2.1.2
WP-PostRatings 1.40
WP Captcha Free 0.5
BTW, should $id be set to page ID or not? I got confused a bit.
Exactly the same for me. The function “comment_id_fields()” return always an empty value for the field comment_post_ID.
Resolved. Check the call of comments_template(), it must be inside the post loop to work properly:
while ( have_posts() ) { must be here }
Well – it wasn’t entirely true for me.
But the idea was great 😀
Here is the code I used to put Comments into my fully customized template page:
<div>Here is the template</div>
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); comments_template(); endwhile; endif; ?>
<div>and here is the stuff after the template</div>
I recently have the same error and found this page.
I find the problem was not the loop, you can put the comment form anywhere you like but remember to put the_post(); somewhere before your form. Usually right after if ( comments_open() ) :
so it become
<?php if ( comments_open() ) : the_post(); ?>
Your form
<?php endif; ?>
preaxz, you are a star my friend.
I was experiencing the white screen of death with comments on a template page after submitting the form. You’re solution seems to work just fine.
I am working on a similar issue and I was wondering if anyone knows how “comment_post_ID” is generated…
I am trying to create a comment form for a content/page that was NOT created within WP… How does WP assign the value of comment_post_ID? I used to think it was the ID of the post but it isn’t, or else every comment to one post would have that number

I’m trying to get working comments of my custom page using php scripted template (which do some math calculations).
Somehow I managed to make it work for a moment, but by editing my script more and more I’ve crashed comments to the point where I have no idea how to fix it.
The problem is very simple – in comments part of page I have:
– so the value of comment_post_ID is missing.
I have no idea how to set it up, or how it got removed – especially because I don’t use variable $comment_post_ID anywhere in my script, nor am manipulating the $_POST data.
The php code in wp-comments-post.php throws an error in this part of code:
(added echo instruction to find out an error)
Anyone might have an idea how to restore comment_post_ID? Or how to set it up again, or how to bypass the problem?
