Did anyone else notice that the links to article comments on the main page no longer include a count if the comments are on Discourse?
Not only that, but the links don't even go to the right topic, just the topic listing page.
I wonder if this is by design, or Discourse blowing up again.

Main page has little to do with DC...

<h2> <a id="MainContent_lnkComments2" href="//what.thedailywtf.com">View Comments</a> • <a href="//what.thedailywtf.com/t/view-topic/1895">Add Comment</a> </h2>@apapadimoulis - first link?
If it needs to be generic, perhaps link to http://what.thedailywtf.com/category/article? Or change the anchor text maybe?

But it used to show the number of comments and link to the article discussion, same as the old system. It's no longer doing either of those.

No idea about comment counts - I know there is/was some communication between DC and the main site, but I rather guess any futher development on the non-forum parts of the site are likely to be directed to the makeover.

Has it always been doing that? I thought the VIEW and ADD comments linked to the same place?
Anyway its most likely my terrible code that I put in there that is broken. Oy.

I've no idea.
I rarely went to the front page for the articles since I subscribed to the RSS feed, and virtually never commented on articles.
Archive.org suggests the first link simply went to the comments and the second to a 'create new comment for this article' page.

I only noticed it today. Probably something recent.

This is on the main page, it looks like the Article page itself is unaffected (by nature of its design).

This is on the main page,
Different links there then - [link to first post] | [link to last post] apparently.

Hmm... well, the problem arrived by itself… now hopefully it will go away by itself!
// it’s probably some stupid caching thing

I meant the old style was different - the perceived issue is still present for articles that are using DC for their comments....
-
The "Last Comment" thing......I don't remember ever seeing that. Odd.
But if you check this version from about a month ago:
And scroll down to "Get Message Error!", you can see that it lists 69 comments, and then links to the Discourse thread.
