comment count in 2.5

  • I just installed 2.5 and now the comments are no longer numbered under manage > posts > comments (when i click on # of comments) like it was in 2.3. How can I add that back in? I do giveaways on our site sometimes and it really helps when I have them numbered since I use a random number generator to determine winner. Any help is appreciated. thank you.

    The only problem with that is that it’s numbered per blog vs per post. So instead of it counting the comments 1-363, I’m getting 783, 799, 801, etc. It makes it much more difficult that way.

    Before, when you would click on the # of comments in a post, it would show all the comments listed and in front of it, they would be numbered in sequence 1, 2, 3, etc in front of each comment. Am i explaining this okay?

    Understood. Sorry best I can offer you is to suggest you report that as a bug at https://trac.www.remarpro.com. Use your forum login there.

    There’s been a number of complaints about ‘numbering’ and ID numbers so add your voice to the mix.

    Will do. thank you!

    I am having the same problem. It makes contest much more time consuming when determining what number post is the winner. This bug definitely needs to be fixed.
