in the vars table, both defaultcommentstatus and commentstatus exist. i was
told by pudge that defaultcommentstatus is used to give a value to
commentstatus in the stories/newstories table when a new story is added.
this is correct no? (for example if defaultcommentstatus had a value of 0
and you added a new story, it would get a commentstatus of 0 and thus allow
posting of comments to the story, since 0 = allow posting of comments and 1
= do not allow posting of comments.)
as for commentstatus in vars table, what is that for? even though i don't
know perl, a grep gave me the idea that it was used to determine if stories
should show comments or not. is this correct?
thanks heaps!
