Tara, I had the first one done, so I tried the second. I never knew that drop down option was there and I’ve been using WordPress for years! That fixed my problem and I ran a second post test – it automatically allows comments on posts now.
Thanks everyone for the help. Really appreciated!
I deactivated both of the plugins and deleted them before, which is where I’m at now. Even after the plugins are gone, the comments are turned off on pages (fine) and on posts (not fine). I switched to the Twenty Fifteen theme and left it there but still can’t see any post options on my test post.
Since it doesn’t seem to be theme or plugin related anymore, is there a way that it could be related to something deeper? Is there a way to start with a clean slate and just redo the site before anything really goes up?
You’re right! Once I uninstalled my plugins and played with it I was able to see it again. Now I can see the theme and make changes. Thank you!
