   actually 2.8.5.

   Ok ive set up WP locally using MAMP, all works fine, uploaded to server, all works fine except when in admin in either PAGES / POSTS the comments column is throwing up the following error:

   Fatal error: Only variables can be passed by reference in /home/sites/samcartermusic.co.uk/public_html/wp-content/themes/sctemplate/functions.php on line 41

   The function file in my template says this:
   

   <?php
   add_filter('get_comments_number', 'comment_count', 0);
   function comment_count( $count ) {
   	global $id;
   	$comments_by_type = &separate_comments(get_comments('post_id=' . $id));
   	return count($comments_by_type['comment']);
   }
   ?>

   line 41 is this:
   $comments_by_type = &separate_comments(get_comments('post_id=' . $id));

   Its a bit beyond me this error, any help would be appreciated.

   thanks

   Try this...

   $get_comments= get_comments('post_id=' . $id);
   $comments_by_type = &separate_comments($get_comments);

   ... instead of your line 41.
