misc housekeeping

1.) How do I implement a “press it” feature like I had on 3.3 with 3.5? I can’t find it.

2.) The audio visual gallery feature still has bugs especially when it comes to embedded flash. Automatic features just don’t work and it is all about work arounds. A little on the unprofessional side in an otherwise super product.

3.) If I want to shut off the comments and have no mention of them on any of the pages, which templete do I edit and where generally speaking do I edit out the “comment” variable?

Thanks, please advise anyone?
