Wordpress: Comments: Submitting a comment opens a related post

Question

I have a problem with my comments form.

Submitting a comment leads to open a related post.

Here's my comments.php:

<?php
    if ( post_password_required() ) :
        echo '<h3 class="comments-header">' . __('Password Protected', 'buddypress') . '</h3>';
        echo '<p class="alert password-protected">' . __('Enter the password to view comments.', 'buddypress') . '</p>';
        return;
    endif;

    if ( is_page() && !have_comments() && !comments_open() && !pings_open() )
        return;
?>

<?php if ( have_comments() ) : ?>

    <div id="comments">

        <?php
            // Only include comments
            $numTrackBacks = 0; $numComments = 0;
            foreach ( (array)$comments as $comment )
                if ( 'comment' != get_comment_type() )
                    $numTrackBacks++;
                else
                    $numComments++;
        ?>

        <h3 id="comments">
            <?php
                printf( _n( '1 Kommentar', '%1$s Kommentare', $numComments, 'buddypress' ),
                number_format_i18n( $numComments ), '<em>' . get_the_title() . '</em>' );
            ?>
        </h3>

        <?php do_action( 'bp_before_blog_comment_list' ) ?>

        <ol class="commentlist">
            <?php wp_list_comments() ; ?>

        <p class="comments-closed">
            <?php _e('Keine Kommentare erlaubt.', 'buddypress'); ?>

An answer would be appreciated

But why is it displayed incorrectly?

Answer 1

The only point in your code that could be responsible for your problem, as far as I can see, is at:

 <div class="comment-action">
      <?php do_action( 'comment_form', $post->ID ); ?>
</div>

$post->ID should hold the id of the current post or be null. If there is a problem with $post , it will be on the page that calls this comments template, single.php probably. You could try changing your current single.php file for the twentyten one and see if that solves the problem. Or post here that single.php file contents so we can check it.

EDIT:

On the single.php file, you have a new query being executed to get the related posts:

$args=array(
        'tag__in' => $tag_ids,
        'post__not_in' => array($post->ID),
        'showposts'=>3, // Number of related posts that will be shown.
        'caller_get_posts'=>1
    );
    $my_query = new wp_query($args);
if( $my_query->have_posts() ) {

This code is populating the $post variable with each of the related posts found, so once that code is done you will have the $post var holding the last post of the related posts retrieved with that query.

Easiest solution: cut the code for the related posts functionality (everything inside de "related-posts" div, including the opening and closing div tags) and paste it just before the </div><!-- main --> so it doesn't affect the comments or navigation parts.
