If you update a comment, eg, you get a comment left for on your blog post, and you then respond with a another comment… and then you edit your comment totally, will the first comment you left be sent via the RSS feed to anyone who has subscribed to your blog?

In other words, what will show up to a subscriber? The first comment before editing? Or the edited/updated comment?

Am I making sense?? lol…

Well, I don’t think the comments show on the regular feed. They only show on the comment feed. And I always recommend making a NEW comment as your reply, since it makes the comments section look so much livelier and attracts more comments.

Oh, I do make a separate comment for my response. I responded with comment, which I then changed my mind about what I wanted to say, so I edited the comment. So, if the person to whom I commented is subscribed (which she is), will see get my first pre-edited comment in her feed reader (whatever it is), or my UPDATED comment…. or both?

is she subscribed to your blog feed or your comments feed?

If she’s subscribed to the comments feed, she will see both unless I’m quite mistaken.

I cannot find a support thread for “Possibly related posts: (automatically generated)” which has appeared on my post after a legitimate comment. This “Possibly related posts: (automatically generated)”
is unwanted by me and is unrelated to the post. How do i get rid of these unwanted links – “Possibly related posts: (automatically generated) – * “Blue Mark II” * August WIP’s * teapot on canvas
* English Fields — all unwanted here http://bradbannister.wordpress.com/2009/01/16/yellow-samba/#comments
