Comment (by boonebgorges):

 Replying to [comment:5 navycs]:
 > My site had 75 comments per page -- now the number is an arbitrary
 number north of 100. The huge problem is that cpages that were created
 with the number set at 75 are now blank and they are being reindexed as
 blank pages -- I have a lot of them -- how can I implement this fix? Not
 sure I can wait until the release of 4.4.2 as Google does not seem to be
 impressed with the no content pages version 4.4 has created.

 > To add: Deleting the code in red and adding the green code -- if that is
 how it is done -- in file 35419-src.diff did not appear to fix my issue.

 Sorry to hear that you're having problems. Manually patching your
 installation, as you've described (deleting the code in red and adding the
 green code) should work in this case. If it does not, it's possible that
 you have a different problem. But it's difficult to tell from the
 description you've given.

 Can you tell me whether you've had comment threading turned on in the
 past? Do you have it enabled or disabled now? Do you have access to the
 database? If so, can you tell me whether there are rows in the wp_comments
 table which contain comment_parent other than 0?
