  Hi,

  Not sure whether this is possible?

  A few of my posts were imported from Matador Community to my WordPress site, when I started the site a coule of years’ ago. The import included everything such as all comments.

  I want to remove an outdated comment from 2013 that I posted, which doesn’t show up in my Admin Comments but not sure how?

  I’ve re-written this post but before I re-publish, I’d like to delete my comment of May 5, 2013 as it’s rubbish. :)

  Any help will be much appreciated.

  This is the post: Bus Virgin – Buenos Aires to Puerto Madryn, Argentina

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

  Hi,

  Please close this ticket as there’s no needs.

  For some reason I couldn’t see the old comments whilst I was editing. When I saved the post and went back into it, the very old comments displayed and I was able to delete/edit as normal.

  Many thanks anyway.

  Hi nilla2014,

  I want to remove an outdated comment from 2013 that I posted, which doesn’t show up in my Admin Comments but not sure how?

  You can browse and delete older comments from your WP Admin dashboard. This link will take you directly to your comments:

  https://imageearthtravel.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit-comments.php

  I can see a few comments from May 2013 on page 66.

  I hope this helps!

  Hi, thanks for getting back to me but I already found where to do this as it wasn’t showing in my post whilst I was editing it for some weird reason. When I published the post, the comments seem to come back in Admin.

  Thanks again
