RE:Comment Problems

It appears that the archive files have not been generated since the "Watch Out" post. This is throwing off all of the links for comments, etc. I thought that it was because the links themselves were broken, but I'm now fairly certain that the "Individual Archive" file (which is a single page view of one blog entry) is not being created when new entries are added. I'm not sure of the reason it stopped working, but feel it is out of our control.

Looking at WEBLOG CONFIG->Archiving, I can see that "Individual" archiving is enabled using the "Individual Archive Template" as the template. Also under WEBLOG CONFIG->Preferences, "Individual" is selected as the default archiving category.

I would recommed posing a question to the webmaster with these details. That is if Lynn or Katie don't know.

Also, I found the reason that the entries droped off the front page a few minutes ago. As I suspected, there is a setting in the configs for the maximun amount of time the entries remain on the main page. It seems this number of days is related to when you do a rebuild (which I did when making changes to the site). It was set for 7 days. I changed it to 30 so your entries posted within the last 30 days would appear.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help,
mike

The problem with your comments was the individual archiving having been turned off, as Mike suggested. We have had this problem with MoveableType for some time. I'm sorry for the inconvenience. I have turned on individual archiving for you and rebuilt your blog. Comments should now work. Let us know if you have any more trouble.
