# Stop Comments plugin caused problems: need help

 * My Aspire theme has a problem with stopping comments.
 * Here is an example page of where it goes wrong: [http://calvinandcalvinism.com/?p=10562&cpage=1#comment-36651](http://calvinandcalvinism.com/?p=10562&cpage=1#comment-36651)
 * The widgets and stuff are all bumped down to the bottom. This happens wherever
   there are existent comments but where now comments have been “closed,” using 
   the standard close comments controls in “Settings.”
 * Normally when I reset the setting in Settings->discussion-> “Automatically close
   comments on articles older than days” back to 0, the problem goes away.
 * I installed a plugin thinking it might have a fix. It didnt. I deleted the plugin,
   thinking all would be restored. It’s not.
 * The plugin name is: Auto-Close Comments, Pingbacks and Trackbacks
 * Even with the above reset to 0, it now appears that all comments globally are
   closed which causes every page with existing comments to become skewed.
 * I am not a code reader/writer.
 * Any solutions would be appreciated.
