Problem With WordPress Comments

    I'm using the Wave theme on the blog at www.SixFigureWriters.com. I noticed today that comments were posted regarding the lastest post/article, but when they get approved, they're being posted to the original introductory post. Any way I can fix that? I doubt everyone just happens to be leaving comments from the first post's page, so not sure why they'd automatically post to that one.

    EDIT: one other problem there... when the title is long enough to wrap on the home page, it overlaps itself. Any idea where I can fix that? Sorry. :(

    Thanks. :)

    Better you code to restrict title size.

    Hey. I have an overlap problem on my blog too! But only in IE. Looks OK in FF. I don't know how to fix it in WP.

    If someone can help I will PM the url.

    Sorry. Back on topic.

    Col :)

    Not changing the theme. ;)

    I don't want the title size changed... just the line height or whatever to increase the space between lines if it forces a wrap-around.

    Thanks Zeo! That fixed my title problem. I kept trying to change line height in the wrong area before. :( Green for you! :)

    If anyone knows what might be going on with the comments yet, please let me know. :) I appreciate the help! :)

    The ID is not the same. For example your latest post is ID 35 but the comment_post_ID for the comment form is ID 1. That's why all the comment goes to post ID 1.

    It's either the theme is buggy or some plugin might interfere.

    I know the comments work with the same theme elsewhere. I have been having problems with one of the plugins though - the adsense sharing one, since it's a multiple author blog. It works, but I get an error message at the top of the blog (only appears sometimes, not all - and of course now that I'd want to show it, it won't appear). No idea why that would effect comments at all, but I really don't know that much about WP or php yet. :( If it comes up later, I'll post it... maybe there will be an obvious problem in there that I just don't see.
