 * Hi there,
 * I run the blog using Word Press 2.5 and since mid July posts have randomly been
   dropping off the blogs.
 * It doesn’t matter whether they are comments on a new post, or a really old post,
   they randomly drop off.
 * Example: 12 test comments posted on 1 post 30 seconds apart.
 * – comment 7 drops off within 30 mins.
    – comment 10 drops off 2 days later – 
   3 comments drop off the day after.
 * It’s just ALL random but doesn’t seem to affect comments made if they manage 
   to hand on for around a month. (They then stay on)
 * **Any ideas, PLEASE HELP!**

 * What exactly do you mean by “drop off”? They disappear from your WEBSITE and 
   DATABASE?

 * Hi Mercime,
 * Yes they disappear from the website AND database.
 * Also, if i try and re-approve the comments using the email link the Word Press
   sends me oroginally to do with moderating the comments, all i get is…
 * “Oops, no comment with this ID. Go back!”
 * Hope this is of some help.

 * That’s new to me. Never had this happen in any of installs.
    Can you re-upload
   your WP version install or upgrade to 2.6.1? Is your website hosted in your own
   server or with webhosting company?

 * We host on our own dedicated server yet to our knowledge we hadn’t made any changes
   to the site before these errors occured.
 * The problem being is that our true ‘technical guy’ isn’t pulling his weight so
   may even be a task to get us upgraded to 2.6.1! Will try my hardest now i know
   knowone else has had similar problems on 2.5.
 * Thanks again for your response
