Although I have comments enabled and I have been using them successfully for ages now, I've come to notice that they have stopped working in the last week or two.

I am running version 3.20100312 with the following configuration:

http://static.natalian.org/2010-03-27/natalian.txt

In my (HTML5 modified page.tmpl) it doesn't seem to enter the "TMPL_IF COMMENTS" block anymore. I tried the stock page.tmpl and they didn't seem to work either, so the variable name hasn't changed has it?

Any other ideas? With thanks,

comments_pagespec => 'archives/* and !*/Discussion',

Your setup file only allows comments to pages under archives. That seems unlikely to be right, so I guess it is causing your problem. --[[Joey]]

That's the only place where I want comments. http://natalian.org/archives/ Has the pagespec changed? Is it archives/*/* or something like that?

It worked just fine with this configuration. I swear I have not modified it. :) -- [[Kai Hendry]]

No changes that I can think of. 'archives/*' will match all pages under archives. Anyway, I can see in your site's rss feed that comments are enabled for posts, since they have comments tags there. And in fact I see comments on eg http://natalian.org/archives/2010/03/25/BBC_News_complaints/.

So I suspect you have simply not rebuilt your wiki after making some change that fixed the comments, and so only newer pages are getting them. --[[Joey]]
