Overview of how to Manage Comments
From the Dashboard
Right on the Dashboard you can see new and recent comments, if you hover over the comment a quick link menu appears you can click approve or trash etc..
From Comments Menu
Step 1 – Click Comment
The top menu lets you filter your comments by pending, approved, spam or trash.
Step 2 – Select the comment you want to approve
Step 3 – Click Bulk Actions and select the action you want to perform ie approve
Step 4 – Click Apply
You can select several or all on the page and apply the action to all selected.
From both screens you can edit the comments
Step 1 – Click Edit or Quick Edit
Step 2 – update comments
Step 3 – Click Update Comment
In theory you can change or delete any part of the comment, we don’t recommend that you do this. You want to create interaction with your readers, if you are in the habit of editing comments, they will stop posting.
By all means though, delete or mark as spam any comments that are inappropriate!
