WordPress Showing Wrong Page

Has anyone else noticed that problem where you view the comments for a post, and it shows an RSS feed for a completely different post? This only happens the first time you load the page. If you refresh, the correct page comes up from then on. I have been noticing this problem for months now (from versions 2.4 through 2.6), and I have no idea what’s causing it. I thought maybe it was related to the WP Super Cache plugin, but I disabled it, and it’s still happening.

PS: The website will be down this weekend, because I’m moving.

  • that’s strange. it seems to reoccur after clearing the browser cache. i’m not too clear on how mod_rewrite works or anything, but it could have something to do with that and the way wordpress handles comments and their rss feeds. perhaps they’re all managed by the same file, which winds up cached when you view the xml, but it’s really weird and i don’t really know much about the way browsers cache files. i did try it both in ie7 and firefox 3, and both behaved the same way.
