Vanishing comments in 2.0!
If comments disappear, is there a way to bring them back? Why would comments disappear in the first place?!
I am using 2.0 for a class, with a folder for each student. In that folder, they are Editors, and the rest of the class has no access at all. As an Administrator, I can see their folder and pages in that folder.
I've left some comments on their pages -- "fix this", "I like that", etc. But when they edit those pages, the comments disappear. What happened? They didn't try to remove my comments, and want to see those comments to see what changes I've recommended.
What can I do?

I’m hoping for a quick solution

Inappropriate?I tried duplicating this on the V2.0 Forum Demo Wiki, as follows:
1) created a test page
2) created a test folder
3) created a test user, with Edit privs
4) placed the test page in the test folder
5) secured the test folder, so that only the test Editor user has access
6) logged in as the test Edit user
7) added a comment
8) edited the page
When finished, the comment was still there. Can you reproduce this problem in a controlled environment? Since PBwiki foolishly discards all evidence of deletions (like comments, for example), you can't tell whether a user deleted the comment, or whether it's a bug in the system. If you can reproduce the problem, perhaps they will have the chance to fix it.
Feel free to register at the V2.0 Forum Demo Wiki if you need a "sandbox" to test. User 'editor@brutsch.com' has password '3d1t0r'. -
Inappropriate?Just to be clear, you are referring to the comment section at the bottom of every PBwiki 2.0 page, right?

Inappropriate?Yes, the comments have disappeared from the bottom of the page. I haven't had a chance to try to recreate this issue.
I’m hoping there is a solution

Inappropriate?Has this continued to be a problem? I haven't heard of any other wikis with this problem and I can't reproduce it, unfortunately...

Inappropriate?I have notices that HTML comments <!-- --> go away in pbwiki 2.0 wikis, but they are stripped right away in the editor... but that's another issue entirely...1 Comment
