When using the comments pager Drupal keeps the node on the top of each page. For content types like blog entries this would be OK, but for content types like forum topics it doesn't mesh well.
Do you know of away to show the node on the node page, but hide the node on the second comments page (node/1?page=1)?

.
Look at advanced_forum_preprocess_node() in the Advanced Forum module for an example of how to do this.

Thanks again Michelle. How
Thanks again Michelle. How did you learn all of this? Did you go to college for php programming? I'm trying to teach myself right now in my spare time for a possible career change.

I went to college for computer science but they didn't teach programming per se. It was more general concepts.
I learned both Drupal and PHP by trying to build my hobby sites. When I needed to do something, I figured out how. Eventually I was able to contribute back some of what I wrote as modules and tutorials. This is all in my spare time as well as I'm a full time mom. Once the kids are in school, I'll look at getting a job doing it.

Your very good at what you
Your very good at what you do. I am along the same path as you, except for the computer science degree. Currently I am in college for an business degree. My oldest just started kindergarten, but I also have a 20 mo old and we are pregnant with twins. I'm hoping to at least earn extra income doing computer website work after this steep learning curve. :)

Thanks. :)
You're going to have a full house. :) There's a lot of money to be made in Drupal, so it's a good thing to put time into learning. Lots of freelance jobs available.
Good luck!
