Feature Request: Latest Comments Block
-
Howdy!
After a live-chat and lengthy email correspondence with Support, they requested that I post this here.
Prologue:
Currently the Latest Comments Block includes Pingbacks. I general include internal links in my articles to indicate updates or reference earlier articles. Just to forestall the question, I prefer full links when linking to an article rather than relative links for the reasons listed here https://wordpress.com/support/comments/pingbacks/#how-to-stop-self-pings-only.However, the Latest Comments Block doesn’t differentiate internal pingbacks from external pingbacks or from comments left by my site visitors. The block treats them all as comments and displays them.
Feature request:
I would find it very useful if it were possible to select the type of “comment” that appears in the Latest Comments Block.Thanks for your consideration.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi Jennifer,
Sorry that you were sent here – this should have been reported internally as you were told.
The Latest Comments block is part of Core WordPress, so any enhancement like this would have to come from that end. I’ve opened a feature request in https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/33682
