CommentPress breaks up content into a commentable form according to paragraph breaks ( <p> ). Wordpress automatically inserts paragraph tags into your document when it detects two line breaks. This works well for most texts, but if you'd like more flexibility in determining how you break things up into commentable units, you can insert your own <p> to group together multiple paragraphs.
To keep two or more paragraphs within a single comment block, try separating them with two break tags <br> instead of using paragraph tags <p>. That's how we kept this paragraph inside the same commenting block as the one above.
We realize that when you reorganize things in this way the term "paragraph" begins to get a bit wobbly. We thought of calling them "lexias" (units of reading) but that seemed a little too obscure. Let us know if you have any other ideas.
Also, a heads up: you may encounter minor problems if you use lists, blockquotes and other more elaborate formatting. We also don't know how well this plays with video embeds. These are areas we hope to improve in the not-too-distant future.
One further note about structure. In "document" mode (i.e. not "blog" with a steady inflow of new content), the order of pages is determined by the time the posts were created (oldest to newest). To reoder your table of contents simply edit the post timestamps into the desired chronological sequence.
