[resolved] Same Page - two locations (3 posts)

    This is sort of complicated. I wrote one page. It now exists in two places. One comment on one and two comments on the other. How to consolidate into 3 comments on the same 1 page? Original page with 1 comment = http://thebellsite.com/blog/index.php/feature-stories/divine-appointment/
    Same page accessed from Category link w/ 2 comments = http://thebellsite.com/blog/index.php/2005/08/28/divine-appointment/
    I don't understand how this happened or why - and I don't know how to correct it so that all 3 comments show in both places and so that it doesn't happen again.
    Thanks for any help you can give.

    1. Only one is a Page as described in Pages - the second one, with the date in the URL, is a post.
    2. Unfortunately your theme has a shortcoming: it doesn't include a Page template so you could see the difference between a Page and a post. Usually, Pages do NOT have comments, and the comments section doesn't even show up on them.
    3. You could just delete either the Page or the post - but before that you could try to export/import the comment(s) to the other one; see this tutorial

    Thank you Moshu.
    I understand the difference between a page and post but I do not remember creating the post. In any event, I really appreciate your response. I'll just delete one or the other and copy over the comment(s) to the one I'll keep. Thanks!
