As you know, I disabled comments on this blog and also my search blog. I am not sure exactly what is wrong, but it has nothing to do with comments.

It appears that when a blog post is rebuilt (published as HTML), it doesn't always produce the full html anymore. Every time a comment or blog post is added/edited a page is published in html. So by disabling comments, I can control if a page is republished as html, which helps me make sure the page's content is always visible.

I use MovableType which runs off CGI or some sort. It is hard to debug. If the issue doesn't fix itself, it started itself, then I think we will spend the next several days building out a custom CMS.

No, I won't use WordPress. I have dreams of how I want my blogging CMS to work and we can do it internally here at RustyBrick.

I'll keep you all posted on that. The main issue is that the new CMS would have to work across several blogs. There will be a lot of work.
