    Started a new thread for all those that couldnt get comments working with post from this thread(it was getting a little hard to follow)http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/268

    I too can't get them working after trying supposed fixes in the previous thread. here are the 2 lines currently found in my .htaccess

    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+)/wp-comments-post.php(.*) wp-inst/wp-comments-post.php [L]

    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+)/wp-comments-post.php(.*) wp-inst/wp-comments-post.php [L]

    Any more ideas?

    With rewrite rule problems could people please include the URL being requested along with the URL that it is actually being rewritten to? Just saying they don't work gives us nothing to work off.

    Can I assume from your latest post with a comment made today that it is now working?

    mistwist and blips,

    Did you replace just the first or second instance of that line in the htaccess or both?

    This is what I did;

    find
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+)/wp-comments-post.php(.*) /wp-inst/wp-comments-post.php [L]

    replaced with
    RewriteRule ^wp-comments-post.php /wp-inst/wp-comments-post.php [L]

    I did that hack and the comments still aren't working.

    The blog I was trying to comment on is here:

    http://boni.purrz.com

    And when you hit Submit, it takes you to the main blog page:

    http://purrz.com

    Arrgh!

    Has anyone found anything this hack breaks? I mean, it works and all, but are there any issues coming up?

    My comments don't work either, I've got the same line twice, that is:

    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+)/wp-comments-post.php(.*) BASE/wp-inst/wp-comments-post.php [L]

    What should I do?
