    I need to know how do I check my “Comment” section? I can only ASSUME that I don’t have any comments because there’s nothing in the comment section when I click onto my page.
    I guess they’ll automatically show when I look at the site?

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

    Go to Dashboard > Comments
    Comments pending approval will be at

    Know that comments became increasingly more and more hard to get after like buttons were introduced. It takes zero effort to click a like button. Actually composing an on topic comment that has meaning and value as it adds to the information in the post, and/or as it encourages more discussion is hard work.

    The vast and overwhelming majority of all so-called information on the internet is spam. Over 80% of all so-called comments submitted to .wordpress.com blogs every day are spam. Spam comes in waves. There are human beings who get paid to post spam. There are robotic programs that post spam. That is why setting up anonymous commenting is never recommended.

    This page > Settings > Discussion is where you set up defaults for comments.

    Discussion Settings
    Other comment settings
    _Comment author must fill out name and e-mail
    _Users must be registered and logged in to comment

    Note that the prompt to submit and email address and a website URL will still appear, but providing an email address and logging in are not required, and you cannot change this so the prompt does not appear.

    You can post instructions for your visitors in a text widget if you wish to set up anonymous commenting. That’s easy to do. You copy and paste this into a text widget:

    Readers: Note that the email address and logging in prompts do appear for comments on this blog, but providing an email address and logging in are not required.

    P.S. Do be sure to set up full comment moderation ie. “An administrator must always approve the comment” because anonymous commenting is bound to increase the amount of spam your blog will receive.
