Hi, I’m trying to use the comments extension found at: [http://github.com/artofmission/radiant-comments/tree/master](http://github.com/artofmission/radiant-comments/tree/master) I’m following the README at: [http://github.com/artofmission/radiant-comments/tree/master/README.rdoc](http://github.com/artofmission/radiant-comments/tree/master/README.rdoc) and it seems everything works except one thing: When posting a new comment from the website I get this error: [http://pastie.org/269694](http://pastie.org/269694) I also get it when accessing the index method of the CommentsController, it’s the call to @page.render The README states: Relative urls will not work on comment pages if they fail validation, since the page gets re-rendered at a (probably) different level of the hierarchy. Always use absolute urls and you won’t have any issues. Is this what I’m running into? Any ideas of where to go from here? Thanks ! ---

Gert, That looks like a bug in the extension. They’ll need to manually set the request on the page to fix that issue. e.g. @page.request = request @page.render Sean ---

Thank you, that works perfectly. Note to other users, I added this line: @page.request = request to the “find\_page” method in vendor/extensions/comments/app/controllers/comments\_controller.rb ---

It would be a great help to all! Examples of an articles for extensions: [http://wiki.radiantcms.org/Copy\_and\_Move](http://wiki.radiantcms.org/Copy_and_Move) and [http://wiki.radiantcms.org/Reorder](http://wiki.radiantcms.org/Reorder) - no screenshots are necessary. I’ll add them later when I get the time. Cheers Mohit. [1] [http://wiki.radiantcms.org/Summer\_Reboot](http://wiki.radiantcms.org/Summer_Reboot) ---

Hi - yes I’ll try to write it down - have been thinking of doing something for the reboot and this might be a good start. ---
