Wrong post ids and comment numbers

    I’m having issues with the post id being wrong and the comments numbering weird. Right now I have two posts up but their ids are 22 and 31 for some odd reason. One of those posts has two comments on it but they are numbered six and seven. This is the code I’m using for the post ids:
    <div id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>>

    And this is the only code I could find that relates to the comment count:
    <h3><?php printf($comment_count > 1 ? __('<span>%d</span> Comments', 'thinkcreatelive') : __('<span>One</span> Comment', 'thinkcreatelive'), $comment_count) ?></h3>

    You can see my blog at http://www.thinkcreatelive.com/blog

    This is my first shot at WordPress so please explain your thoughts in depth 🙂 Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Ok so some posts say that the post id doesn’t really matter so I turned on pretty permalinks to get rid of the weird numbers. Now one of my posts has the month and correct title, but the other one has the month and the post id still. Any reason why? And can I fix the comments or should I just leave those?

    About the post url: you should edit the post that shows the id. In the editor you should change the content of the permalink field.

    About the comments, what exactly do you want to fix?

    Oh sweetness I didn’t know I could change that in the editor. About the comments, if you mouse over the permalink to each comment, the numbering starts at six. Can I change that or does it matter at all?

    Thanks for your help 🙂
