All users see is the introduction. Also the comments link does not appear even though 'comments enabled' is selected.

Comments and the read more link seems to appear only with a 'featured article'. Also some of my older articles have 'read more' and comments. Others don't.

I'm running the latest version of gl.
Is there anyway to correct this? Thanks

That is very odd. Did you modify the theme? If so, can you check if the same happens with the Professional theme (assuming you're on Geeklog 1.3.11)?

bye, Dirk

I'm using the yahoo theme with latest version. I noticed that the 'read more' and comments links are not visible when auto archive is enabled. Unchecking this box fixes the problem.

Perhaps I need to understand this feature and auto delete better. e.g. if I click on the auto delete box, the story gets deleted as soon as you hit the submit button.

Thanks for your help.

I see what I did wrong. I should have selected a date in the future when choosing auto archive or auto delete. The software doesn't automatically do anything. You have to tell it when to delete or archive stories. Then it does it 'automatically'.

When you set the date correctly, the 'read more' and comment links appear as they should.

I can see where the auto delete feature would be useful for announcements that aren't going to be of any value after a certain date, such as i'll be out of the office, or an announcement about an event, etc...

Thanks again.
