Presentation of Comments

Taking a look at the Feedback page, it struck me that anyone wishing to leave a comment would have to navigate through the entire comment history in order to reach the comment form. While I think that it’s important to retain old comments, this situation seemed less than ideal. Having established that moving the comment box above the comments would be far from simple, I decided to enable comment pagination; although this applies to all pages and posts, in practice it is only the Feedback page where the effects are likely to be seen. A small number of comments are now presented on the first screen, followed by a link to ‘Older Comments’ and then the comment box. Subsequent screens have links to both Older Comments and Newer Comments.
