  When I imported my blog from blogger.com, 9 comments were also imported. They are not connected to any post, and cannot be edited or deleted. I find it quite annoying to have them showing up in my awaiting moderation list when I can’t do anything about them, and would like to see them gone forever.

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

  If you go to your blog’s Dashboard, under Comments you will see a list of all comments that have been approved or are pending approval. You can go through that list and either delete them individually by hovering your cursor over each one, or select multiple comments via the boxes on the left side, and then do a bulk deletion.

  For more information on managing your comments, see:

  But it doesn’t work. The comments just keep reapperaring in the list… :(

  I’ve tried both ways of deleting, but same result for both. When I delete from the phone, they appear to go away, but next time I go to the comments page, they’re still there. On the computer they reappear right away. By the way, it’s also not possible to accept the comments, but I do want to delete them, as the posts they are connected to are not there anymore…

  I was able to delete your 9 comments. Please take a look at this page to see if it’s correct like this.
