Hey guys! Madi here! I’m having a dilemma with the comments. I’ve gotten so many and I’m so super excited… except I absolutely no idea how to approve them. I’ve not changed any of the settings, and even with L4TL’s help and Google, I can’t find the comment moderation page! If I haven’t published or replied to your comment, I am SO sorry, I am super stumped. Can ya’ll help me? Thanks so much!! And thank you ALL for following! I’m so thrilled!

For me if I’m on my computer, on the top right corner there is a little bell, and then if I click on that I can see comments, and then if I click on a comment, it appears like on the side and it has a little approve button to click! I hope this helped and made sense! ~Julia β€

Yay! Here to help, on WordPress for two years, so sometimes it can be a pain, because it changes so often! So here’s how I approve to my comments:
1. go up to that little bell thingy in your wordpress reader at the top blue bar that stretches across your screen. When there is and orange dot, that means you got a comment!
2. click the bell, click the comment. Right above the space where you can reply, it has a checkmark icon and the word approve, click approve.
Here is how I access all comments ever posted:
1. Go to your site
2. you see where it says “My sites” with the WP icon across the BLACK bar across your screen? Well click on it, and it should bring you to a drop down.
3. Scroll down through the drop down, until you see the WP Admin option, click on it
4. That will bring you to your dashboard. Look on the left hand side, where there is a thin side menu. Click on the comment icon
5. There is every comment you have ever seen on your blog! This is not the most convenient way, so I suggest the first way.
Reply if it worked or if you have any questions!

Hi! I’m pretty sure I know what you can do to approve your comments. π Here are some directions:
Click on the white bell in the top right corner of your screen.
Click on one of your comments.
There will be four buttons under the comment you’ve opened: “Like,” “Approve,” “Trash,” and “Spam.” The “Approve” button has a check on it. Click that button to approve the comment. π
There is one other way to do it:
Click on “My Site” in the top left corner of your screen.
Click on “WP Admin” at the very bottom of the list. This will take you to your WordPress Dashboard.
On the options on the left side of the page, click “Comments.”
You should now be on a page with all your comments. At the top there should be “All,” “Pending,” “Approved,” and “Spam.” Click on “Pending.” Hover over a comment and click the green letters that say “Approve.”
I hope that helps you! π

I don’t have a wordpress, so I’m not really a big help. Sorry!
