  Hi,
  Some time ago I changed my comment section heading to something other than the default ‘Comment here” or whatever it was.
  I wanted to change it again and now can’t for the life of me find out how I did it before.
  Hopefully it’s just me not seeing it.
  Thanks for any help in advance.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi o4fswrite,

  To change the “prompt” you need to go to the traditional “wp-admin” dashboard.

  Open a browser tab and enter the following URL:
  https://thebryntinproject.wordpress.com/wp-admin/options-discussion.php

  Scroll right down to the bottom of the page and you will see the option to change the “prompt”.

  Hope it helps.

  Hi o4fswrite,

  According to this thread, apparently the option to change “comment prompt” is being phased out for newer accounts.

  Is your account a new OR old one?

  Tagging modlook to get their attention and help you resolve the issue. :)

  Hi,

  This blog has been going since September and I must have changed the prompt from the default some time not too long after so I guess it can’t be too new for it.

  I changed the theme two weeks ago, changing the prompt was another part of my ongoing refresh and I suddenly couldn’t see where I had done it before.

  Thanks for your time with this issue mkb11.

  Hi there,

  When I go to https://thebryntinproject.wordpress.com/wp-admin/options-discussion.php I can see the option to update the prompt, but that may be because of my staff account. Can’t say that I will always be able to do this, but let me know what you want in the prompt, and I’d be happy to update it for you.

  Thanks!
