  I want to comment on the posts of other bloggers on my reader. So, when I click on the comment button the post opens but I find no comment section towards the end of the post. Thus I am unable to leave any comments. Also, I can’t even see the comments which are already there in the post. However, I am able to receive and reply to the comments on my posts. The problem is only when I want to comment on posts other than mine. This problem started since last evening. Please help ! Thanks – Chhaya

  Hi there,

  In my understanding, you can’t leave comments via READER. You have to access to actual site→the indivisual post page in order to leave comments.

  Comments
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/comments/

  Just in case, I’ll add “modlook” tag on this topic so as that a staff can back you up.

  Hi. Please let me know my suggestion is wrong, and provide a solution for @3ddasdaggiding.

  Thanks!!

  Howdy all,

  Thanks for reporting this issue. It appears a small change in the Reader on Friday caused comments to only show for logged-in admins of a site, but it was fixed a little while ago and you should be able to see and leave comments via the Reader again.

  You might need to clear your browser cache before it will work for you.
