I’m trying to add google captcha to comments without success. Also - if I disable comments - they still appear.  
Pinegrow renders the comment form with:

 \<?php comment\_form(array('title\_reply'=\>'Leave a comment')); ?\>

But this doesn’t create hooks such as:

do\_action ( ‘comment\_form\_logged\_in\_after’ );  
do\_action ( ‘comment\_form\_after\_fields’ );  
do\_action ( ‘comment\_form’ );

So plugins - and wordpress itself, don’t act on the form. Enable/disable comments has no effect. Captcha plugins don’t work etc.

Can anyone help me with the right way to add comments with Pinegrow so that it renders in a ‘wordpress compliant way’ so plugins recognise the comments and can hook into them?

Thanks
