Hvordan kan jeg se hvilke sider i databasen som inneholder kommentarer?
Hvis du legger til en kommentar i drøftingsdelen på en prosjektside på en tidslinje, eller hvor som helst på sidens hoveddel, vil du se en ordboble dukke opp på den aktuelle raden i tabellseksjonen av tidslinjen med det antallet kommentarer den inneholder. Hvis du skjuler tabellen, kan du ikke se om prosjektene inneholder kommentarer.
