Comments do not post

Hello - I have just recently published my new website using Generate Press Premium, but I am having difficulties getting comments to appear. I have enabled discussion with an opt-in cookie. I do not have the manually approve post at this time. And I have enabled comments on one test post as an example. The comment box appears, and I can type my question in it, but when I post, it goes to my 404 website page with this URL: https://mywebsitename/wp-comments-post.php. I am fairly new to Wordpress, and I don't know where to begin. Any thoughts on what steps I need to enable? Or recommended plugin to help me along? Thanks in advance for your help!
Hi there,
It could be a plugin - can you try deactivating all of your other plugins to test?
If not, it could be a permalinks issue - what do you have set in "Settings > Permalinks"? Try clicking the Save button in there once.
If that doesn't help, I would contact your host to see if they can see any issues on their end.
Let me know :)
Thanks for the tips. Disabling plugin All In One WP Security fixed this (and other 404 issues I experienced). I will need to look for a new security plugin. Thanks for your help!
No problem! :)
