Dear randyY,
I'm not sure if I understand correctly. Please provide a link to the page where I can see this in action.
Also, does the comments shortcode have an ability to set the post ID via an attribute?
I have also enabled the private details box below so you can share login information to your site. Please provide it if you think this may help me to diagnose the problem.
Thank you!
Regards,
Paweł
