Description
If you pass the type parameter to wp_list_comments() (for example, to show comments only and no pings), then comment permalinks can easily use the wrong page number as they expect there to be pings included. This is apparent after leaving a comment and WordPress attempts to redirect back to your new comment.
At first I was thinking you could tell WordPress that you're filtering to a type and it could compensate when determining the page number, but then I realized perhaps it'd just be better for wp_list_comments() to check if there were 0 comments returned for the query and if so, see if there are any of that type of comment available. If so, then we know we're on too high of a page number and can instead display the highest existing page. Then again this introduces SEO issues.
Ideas on what to do are welcome.
That does make sense.
