Confused about what the user guide says in regards to comment entries?

    Note:  The Comment Entries Tag is intended for use in one of your “single entry” pages.  That is, a page that shows a single, specific weblog entry.  Therefore, your Comment page must be linked to from within your Weblog entries using the URL Title Path variable or the Entry ID Path variable, so that the comments can be associated to a specific entry.  You may also combine Comments and Trackbacks together in an integrated display.

    I have no idea what this is suggesting. My comments seem to work fine.. Can someone enlighten me on this issue?

    It means that comments cannot be shown on a page that contains more than one article (not easily, anyway). On your index page, where you list the 10 or so latest articles, you generally don’t have comments; you do on “single entry pages”, however. Making sense?

    That certainly makes sense. It was working, but I just wanted to clear it up. Thanks Ingmar, for your always lightning fast replies.. I could swear that you simply don’t sleep!! =P
