  Do comments take a short period to post publicly? I had two Spam comments that I approved but they aren’t showing up publicly yet. Is there one more step I need to do so these will show for all visitors? Or will they show in a little while? Thanks!

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

  I have a total of 4…two I approved through e-mail but there are two others that WP filtered for me as Spam. I approved those earlier and hoped they would show publicly but haven’t seen them at bottom of post; the only indication of the Spam I approved is the ‘teardrop’ counter at the top R-hand side of post… Not the end of the world but I did want those supporter’s comments to show… Thanks!

  There’s a two-step process to legit comments that go to spam. 1) You un-spam them 2) you Approve them. Till then they’re in moderation.

  Gotcha! I skipped the un-spam step. Thanks!! I am so delighted with how helpful everyone on WP seems to be! Thanks again.

  You’re welcome. That’s a tricky one and I got confused about it when I first noticed it too.
