Is there a way to see all of MY comments, across different blogs? I realize that this may be a taxing sort of query depending on how y’all’s backend is organized. I do see a post from 2006 talking about it (https://en.blog.wordpress.com/2006/08/14/my-comments/), but the interface demonstrated there seems to be an old iteration. Is there any way to do what I want to do? Even if there isn’t, it seems like there should be some sort of article in the help portal about it. It’s weird how support centers tend to just not mention unsupported features at all, rather than simply saying, ‘this isn’t supported’. It seems like a lot of people would have this question, so I’d really think it’d be easier to find. Apologies if it is and I just missed it. Thanks!

Hi there,
Based on my understanding, I see you wish to see the comments you have made on different blogs. Assuming you have an issue with WordPress.com site, you can find those comments on old WP-Admin dashboard (black).
To see the comments, go to My Sites > WP Admin > Dashboard > Comments I’ve Made
Else you can just go to following link –
https://your_dot_com_site/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-comments
Replace ‘your_dot_com_site’ with your site address.Hope this helps!

Okay, so I have to create my own wordpress site before I can see my comments on other people’s? That’s kinda odd, but I can do that. I guess I’m not certain whether or when I’ve made comments anywhere on WordPress in the past, so it’s conceivable that it’s empty for real, but I’m a little surprised if that’s the case.
After I created a site and navigated to it, I see a My Site button in the top left (not sure whether that’s the same as the “My Sites” button you mentioned), but when I click on it, I don’t see anything that looks like “WP Admin”. If I manually modify the URL as you mentioned, I can get to the page I’m looking for, but I don’t see a way to get to it through the menu navigation.
I’m glad the feature I was looking for does exist! Hopefully the navigation options I’m looking for do as well, and I’m just not seeing them because I’m unfamiliar with the platform. Thanks for your response!

You see the button as ‘My Site’ as you have only one site. If you have more than one site then the button reads ‘My Sites’. It changes depending on the number of your sites.
I don’t see anything that looks like “WP Admin”
Once you click on my site, the left navigation menu will appear with options likes Stats, Blog Posts, Pages, Comments, Settings, etc.
Scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page and you’ll see last option in side panel as ‘WP Admin’.
After you click on it, old WP Admin (black) Dashboard will appear in new tab.
On that tab you’ll find Dashboard > Comments I’ve Made.Let me know if you need further help.

Thanks for the details! When I follow those though, I don’t see that button. The last section of the side panel reads:
- Configure
-
- Sharing
- People
- Plugins
- Domains
- Settings
- ADD NEW WORDPRESS

@albergator we’re actually testing likes & comments in a combined new page here:
https://wordpress.com/activities/likesDoes that page show your work?
If it doesn’t, would you mind linking to a few WordPress.com sites where you have commented?
