 * Recently upgraded to 4.4, though unsure if this was the cause. Using a custom
   theme, but have been without trouble for 7 years now. It seems that quite a few
   comments have vanished off my site, yet they still show in the admin section,
   and the number of comments is still correct in the page/post itself.
 * Doesn’t seem to be a pattern, for example, post made on 8th October is still 
   showing comments from 30th October to 3rd November, but nothing before.
 * Similarly, post made on 3rd December is showing comments from 7th December until
   today, but nothing from before!
 * If I change one of the missing comments to today’s date for example, it will 
   appear!
 * I’m no expert, so hope it is a simple enough solution? I’ve activated a WordPress
   standard theme but still the same. Also tried deactivating plugins with no success.
 * Help!
