 * Not sure if this one has been covered here – I can’t seem to find anything on
   it!
 * My problem is we have a site that uses threaded comments. It works fine. It used
   to go 5 levels deep. We eventually changed it to 3 levels deep and now any post
   from the past that has comments that go 5 levels deep, it doesn’t even show any
   reply links or reply forms anywhere.
 * Any posts from after the depth change work fine.
 * I hope that makes sense!
 * Is this a known issue?
