Hi there,
Do you happen to have an example of what you want using WordPress?
The comment system is handled by WordPress so I would recommend opening a support topic with them at the same time.
Let me know 🙂

Hi Leo
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I used the CSS proposed by Tom in this thead:
https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/comment-numbering/
My site does not use nested comments, which should make numbering easier, but I do need to number them appropriately for backwards compatibility with the existing 18k+ posts when I replace my current theme with Generatepress.
What I am aiming for is something similar to that which can be seen here: http://www.fifteensquared.net/2020/10/28/guardian-cryptic-28276-by-brendan/

Hmm I don’t believe there is a solution to the login/logout problem – just the way WordPress comment system work I assume.
Can you link me to the page in question with the CSS applied?

Hi Leo
I can but I would prefer not to make the URL public. Is there a means by which I can sent it to you?

You can use the pre-sale form here and make sure to mention the topic URL:
https://generatepress.com/contact/
I would recommend opening a topic with WordPress support at the same time as it’s likely an issue they need to address.

Try adding this CSS:
.bypostauthor {
display: list-item;
}

Leo, thank you so much! That additional CSS has solved the problem and now all comments are numbered sequentially.
I have to say that your support is exceptional. To come up with a solution to my problem in little more than an hour and a half is much more than I could have expected, particularly as I am using the free version of GeneratePress so, again, many thanks.
