So I have disabled comment title, but it still takes the first chunk of sentence and makes one anyway?

I go crazy re reading the same thing every post on this site....

Is it possible to make it not do that? Is there a setting I am missing?

Thanks
JM

Just override modules/comment/comment.tpl.php putting a copy of it in your template folder

In the newly created file locate this code

<h3><?php print $title ?></h3>

and delete it.

then flush your theme registry and reload the page

The reason why you can't control it from the content type settings page is that, when you decide to not allow a title for comments, you just tell the system that you don't want the *user* to decide a title.

So when writing a new comment, the "title" field is missing from the form.
Drupal, anyway, still generates a title (don't know exactly why, but I guess is for administrative purposes... when you perform maintenance tasks, such as checking the comment list for "cleaning" purpose, it's useful to have a title in the list...)
