   I apologize if a solution has already been posted, but I can't seem to find it ; - )

   Here's the problem:

   My Recent Comments widget displays as it should, but when I click on any of its links, nothing happens. To actually view a specific comment, I have to go into my Site Admin.

   Not sure if it's relevant/helpful or not, but the comments pertain to my "About" page (which I've forced to display as my home/opening page):

   http://liannesprigg.ca/blog/

   Does this make any sense?

   Any help would be most appreciated!

   Thanks,

   -Lianne.

   The links are all anchors and don't include a full URL as expected. Where did you get the code for that widget?

   Hi Matt,

   As far as I know, it came with version 3.0.1 (I could be mistaken, though - I'm pretty new to WordPress).

   Any chance you could recommend a replacement (or a fix)? : - )

   Thanks much,

   -Lianne.

   I just did a bit more hunting, and another member, who seemed to be having the same problem, said:

   I had to change the comments.php file to set the comment_ID as an anchor ID

   Not really sure how to do that, though...?
