I want to delete a comment

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi WordPress support,

    So, I have a request. I’d like to be able to delete a comment I made on another WordPress blog site that’s not mine. Why can’t I do so? Why is there no option? I’ve read in old forum help that you can’t, but if so, why do you guys have this policy? It’s just irritating to me at this time that I can’t, it feels like a stain I can’t remove. Why am I feeling this way? I know this is more of an emotional thing, but please let me know what you think. What if I delete my WordPress account? Thanks

    WP.com: Yes
    Correct account: Unknown

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

  • Hi there,

    It is impossible to edit or delete any comments you have left on other WordPress.com blogs. Blog owners are in full control of the comments on their blogs, so you can try contacting the blog owner and ask them to edit or delete a comment for you. If the blog owner has not posted any contact information, you can try leaving a short comment asking how to contact them directly.

    Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God.” –Mark 10:27

    According to the infallible truth found in the bible it is possible. I think you need to redefine impossible as not allowed by men on this particular website. You make it impossible. That was a choice. It is possible for editing or deleting comments made to others blogs if you guys made it as such.

    Have a good day Jerry.

    Hi Jerry,

    Hope all is well. Anyway, I just want to say I’m sorry. I don’t know if I needed to reference that verse in this situation to you. Take care, thanks for hearing me out. Enjoy the day.
