   I have a fairly new WP 2.0.3 install running on apache 1.3 with php 4 and I am using a template based on the old classic single index.php with comments.php

   I've noticed one problem that's bothering me.

   After a NEW comment is posted, wp-comments-post.php does it's job and redirects back to the original post page.
   HOWEVER, is it not supposed to send that person back to see their comment by adding #comment-1234 to the end of the URL?

   I thought this was the purpose of get_permalink at the end of that function, and inject it into the location header?

   I am using the second permalink option:
   Date and name based
   http://example.com/blog/2006/07/24/sample-post/

   Thanks for any help!

   I'm having this problem too. Is there an option to turn it on?

   If I remember right, they had removed that option before, for 2.0, 2.0.1, 2.0.2, 2.0.3.. I'm not positive if they re-added it for the latest of 2.0.4..

   But, you can do the following:
   http://trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2891

   The code changes are as such:

   Open the wp-comments-post.php file.

   Near bottom, find this line:

   wp_redirect( $location );

   Then replace with this line:

   wp_redirect( $location . "#comment-" . $comment_id );

   I hope this helps.
