Where do I find my comments?!

  • Unknown's avatar

    Well, let’s see how THIS works…
    So, I attempted to comment on a post I googled about Edith McAlinden’s release, and instead of having to register, it required my email in order to comment, so i submitted my email, yet it still made me register, grrrr! So after reluctantly registering it wanted a domain site?! Well, I don’t have one & it was very tough to get out of THAT section.
    Now I’m looking for my comment but can’t even bring up the subject about Edith McAlinden again! This is where the article was actually written from.
    Now I’m very confused & want to know how this site works, & why I can’t find what I started doing here before?
    …Otherwise, I just registered for nothing!

    It depends how the site you are commenting on has been set up. Site owners can request email addresses or not depending on which box they tick. They can also allow comments to appear immediately or hold them in moderation until they have approved them. So it isn’t just a matter of how WordPress works but how an individual site has been configured.

    An account is required if you want to comment on a blog. The system will automatically create an account, however it is not necessary to create your own site before you can comment on other people’s blogs.

    I would ignore the prompt to create a site. Now that you have an active account you may comment on any site that allows comments.

    An account is required only if the site owner has ticked that feature.
