How to manage comments in WordPress

In WordPress your visitors have the option to leave comments on your site. This feature creates a dynamic interchange between you and your readers.

Moderate comments

You can moderate your visitors' comments via the Comments menu in the WordPress administrator backend.

Comment options

You have a number of options that you can set for your Comments. They are listed under Settings > Discussion.

This is the place where the site administrator decides:

  • if comments are allowed,
  • if pingbacks and trackbacks are acceptable,
  • and what constitutes Comment Spam.
