¶ 1 Leave a comment on paragraph 1 0 Have updated Commentpress to 3.3.2.  Don’t forget to update the theme also (I didn’t – it made a bit of a mess at first!).

¶ 2 Leave a comment on paragraph 2 0 A key resource for users is here.

¶ 3 Leave a comment on paragraph 3 0 Christian Wach (author) has, as usual, been terrifically helpful in getting me through the tangles of installation!

¶ 4 Leave a comment on paragraph 4 0 Some nice changes; some I am not sure about.

• I like the paragraph numbering.
• Would be nice if the home page/title page did not appear on the contents list but only on the button. See next bullet – in fact this now works fine.
• When switching to the home page, sidebar shows the comments tab, not the contents tab, which to me would be more logical – particularly as I have comments turned off for my home page. Compare with behaviour of switch to blog.  I forgot to check the Special Pages setting in the CommentPress settings after I upgraded the theme
• If a page has comments set to off (e.g. my Home Page) then there is no point in numbering the paragraphs or inserting the comment  links. Now the title page is working properly comments are in fact turned off for the title page.
• Each paragraph has a link button to read or add comments. There’s no equivalent for the whole page comment? Perhaps these links could be in the top right corner of a page? Possoibly will bea dded to feature list for next version.
• Ideally, blog posts would retain only the whole document comment style rather than paragraph comments?  Not an important issue
• Not sure what the activity tab is for yet – in any event it might be nice to have these tabs switchable. Figured this out after commenting on my own work just to test it …!
• Now there are three tabs a lot of screen space is given to the management tools at the expense of the text?
