Comments issue

    I am building a site on English learning for my Chinese students and it’s all working well. However i am updating lots of things and finally getting around to sorting things out better. I’ve create a wide variety of pages for different categories and everything seemed to be working well. I was browsing through checking up on things and when I looked at my “Movies” category posts I noticed all the comments displayed are from the first post only.
    To be clearer, I have four “Movies” category posts

    1 – I love movies
    2 – Watching your way to English
    3 – Karate Kid
    4 – The Big Lebowski

    All four of them are showing the comments from “I love movies”

    So I a couple tests called

    test
    test2
    test3
    (creative I know)

    Each time i made a new test I added a comments on one of the posts and it seems to just add it to the next in sequence starting at Karate Kid regardless of where i posted. For example

    I created test and posted on The Big Lebowski but it recognized me as posting on Karate Kid and all the “Movies’ category posts showed Karate Kid’s comments

    I created test2 and posted on Karate Kid and it assigned it to the Big Lebowski and all the “Movies’ category posts showed The Big Lebowski’s comments

    I created test3 and posted on Watching your way to English and it assigned it to test and all the “Movies’ category posts showed test’s comments

    after test4 it went to test2 and everyone showed test2’s

    test5 to test3 everyone showing test3

    and so on.

    There seems to be a problem in both the posts order of entry and the page knowing which comments to show (seems to always show whichever comments last had someone add to it)

    I’m using navigation along the top with text and picture links and both the text and picture show the correct before and after as well if you click on them they take you to the correct page.

    just to further test a bit I went into both “holidays” and “slang” and added test posts along with test comments and everything works great. it seems to only be in my “Movies” category.

    Any ideas? Or just remake the “Movies” category and hope it was just a glitch in the system?

    No… i didn’t fix it. But I did figure out what is causing the problem.

    At the bottom of my page I want to have a random list of other blogs from that category. so i used 

    <?php $recent = new WP_Query("cat=274&showposts=4&orderby=rand"); while($recent->have_posts()) : $recent->the_post();?>
<div class="frontrecent">
<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark">
<?php the_post_thumbnail(array(150,113)); ?><br/>
<?php the_title(); ?>
</a>
</div>
<?php endwhile; ?>

    When I include this in my page it does the above to my comments section. Any ideas on why? I’d really rather not have yet another plugin for the “related posts” function. Why would this destroy my comment sections ability to work properly?
