I installed a new caching mechanism yesterday to improve site performance. As a result, some authenticated users keep being shown the "anonymous" pages as if they were not logged in. If this is happening to you, please log out by clicking this link and then log back in again. That should address the problem.
jeez man, what did you do to
jeez man, what did you do to the site? the login/login state management is fubar… can’t log in cuz “page not found”… speaking of which, logging in from a thread always results in page not found rather than redirecting back to the originating thread.
while you’re fiddling, how about adding the paging links to the top of the thread? scrolling to the bottom of the page every time to hit the next page links is a minor disconvenience…
Agreed on that last part,
Agreed on that last part, but that’s not really within the realm of stuff I can change.
Anyway, I am not having any of the problems you describe, either with login states or a page not found error when logging in from a thread (though fixing the former should fix the latter since you will already be logged in anyway). Did you explicity log out with the logout link provided above, and then log in again?

log in state was sketchy at
log in state was sketchy at the time… instead of being shown the “reply” link, i was shown the login or register links. clicking login would send me to the page not found error. using the log out that you provided sort of reset things, but instead of requiring a re-login, the reply function started working properly. i’m guessing that login state is managed with cookies and that the log out automatically relogged me in by checking the cookies…
the problem with the redirection i think lies with how the redirect url is being constructed. i’m using IE 6.0 on a win2k box. the link i get redirected to in logging in from this thread is:
http://piggington.com/comment/reply/6445%2523comment_form?time=1202768982
notice that instead of 6445/2523, the redirect has a % sign in there…
as for adding the paging links, if you have access to the blog source code, you could try finding where the paging links are constructed and copy/paste the code snip to the top of the page…

Don’t like messing with the source; makes it a pain when it comes time to upgrade.
I’ll check out that problem with the % signs though…
