  Copy the content, email address, username and website out and into a plain text file, then log out, go to the correct post and then put their information into the comment fields and submit it. Then go back and delete the comment on the wrong post.

  Thank you – that worked. (Although it’s a pity there isn’t an easier way.)

  Thanks! I had wondered about that myself, now I have the answer! I agree – a bit convoluted, but if it works…..

  You are welcome.

  Hopefully this doesn’t happen too often. I don’t think it does.
