A little help:

OK, you MT gurus - is there any way to view all of the comments that a blog has?

I've tried to get the mail notification system for comments to work, but can't get it to cooperate. I know I'm doing something stupid, but still haven't figured it out.

Oh, Yeah:

AK Rocks!

I don't think there's a way in MT to do it. If you're using the MySQL version of MT, you can look at them directly in the database.

Not all at once, but it is possible to scroll through them.

Here's a snippet from a view comment url

comment&id;=1947

if you lower that number in the url, the previous comment will appear.

Theoreticaly, once could construct a page that pulled the content from every one of the comments on a blog, by cutting up the url in MS Excel, using it to decrement the numbers for you, then reconstructing the various urls as part of one html page.

You could script the same thing, if you know Perl.

Probably not worth the trouble, though.
