I'm just importing my Movable Type blog into Typo 5.3.  A few random questions:

1. It looks like the spam filtering only scans when comments/trackbacks are initially created. Is there a way to get it to re-scan everything against Akismet?

2. The admin UI is a little confusing and inconsistent with article links. Sometimes they take me to an editor window where I can edit the article (from the Content tab); sometimes to the view of the article itself (from the Dashboard), sometimes to a list of comments that doesn't include the original article (from the Feedback tab). Sometimes those URLs use the article ID, sometimes the full SEO URL..

The result: If I'm looking at feedback, and I want to see the original post in context, I have to click on the article name to see the comments list, and click on the article name again to see the edit-the-article screen. That URL uses the article ID, but I don't know the route for "view an article by ID" (if there even is one) so that doesn't help. But from here, I can see which categories the article's in, and then I can go look at the real blog to drill down by category.. oy!

I feel like there's an opportunity for redesign, but I'm not sure what, exactly.


- Is there any way to view trackbacks from the admin UI? The Feedback tab will list the trackbacks, but their excerpts are just the article title (unless that's only for MT-imported trackbacks?)

- Are there any useful blogs I should follow, besides typosphere itself?

Thanks!
