Having to "approve" my own comments
-
I’ve logged into my blog. I approve comments people have made and then I want to respond to those comments. I write out my responses, however, when I go to post my comment, I am told by my own blog that my comment has to be approved by the moderator first. Hello. I am the moderator. I then have to go to the comment page and approve my own comments. Why? This only started happening the last week. Any solution?

Are you logged in under the same username account ie.the Admin who registered the blog in question?

Clicking this link should display all your blogs registered under the same username, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden
If you do not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibility -
I only have one username account for this particular blog (I am the only admin). I have another WP blog, but it is an entirely different username account. I just noticed that the comments that I made at another blog lists my real name as the commenter (Fred Butler), where as on another blog, my screen name is listed as the commenter (fivepointer).
In fact, I am at a secondary computer right now and I left a comment at my blog and I didn’t have to approve myself. It left the comment as my screen name rather than my real name. Some how my two names are getting crossed and I need to figure out how to uncross them. I am not entirely sure what, if anything, I did.

I’ve flagged this thread for Staff assistance with sorting this out. Please be patient while waiting.

No worries. It not like it’s the end of the civilized world or anything. =-)
Thanks for the help. -

Timethief … I’m having the same problem. Somehow, my daughter’s e-mail was listed in the comment’s section (where mine normally popped up). I changed it to reflect my e-mail address. Now I have to approve my own comments.
