Thanks for all the feedback, folks! The only problem is, I still don't know what to do. After reading that WP support article, now I'm terrified I might REALLY screw something up if I tinkered with it the wrong way! Plus, I have no idea where the wp-config.php file actually is. When I look under my "presentation" tab, none of the .php files contain the section mentioned in the article. I thought the article says I have to create the file. Or did I read that right? Sorry to be such a dweeb about this, folks, but I'm really not that much into the nuts and bolts - I just want to be able to USE it. Wow! Thanks for all the feedback, folks!

Fortunately, I didn't have much there yet so I could easily correct the errors. Although I really want to upgrade to 2.2 and change my theme, I've put off doing either ... just thinking of all the possible glitches. :-) Angela, Something else on my to-do list is to install this plug-in: Subscribe to Comments 2.1 at http://txfx.net/code/wordpress/subscribe-to-comments/ - I have not used it yet, so I can't recommend it. But it sounds like it should do what you want. If you try it, I'd love to know how it works for you. Robert,

I'm not letting it bug me though. The only corrections I made were to my WordPress pages and any Home page words that were messed up. What I am looking for is a WordPress plug-in that would allow my readers to subscribe to a particular post thread of comments. Any ideas? I had the same problem when I upgraded.

What part of the world are you from anyway? It's an old Coushatta Indian word that translates roughly <i>I'm about to spray whatever I'm drinking all over you!</i> Similar to "glb", which means <i>Pardon me, but I'm choking on this Kit-Kat bar. Do you know the Heimlich Maneuver?</i> :-D “Urk” a nonsense word? What part of the world are you from anyway?

I've no idea what the problem is; I've been putting off the 2.2 upgrade, myself. Hope you manage to fix it painlessly. Not only that, your site has been infected by nonsense words such as “urk”!
