The **Comments** page in the left menu collects reader comments from your sites. Choose **All Sites** or a single site from the list at the top right.

## Tabs

**Pending, Approved, Rejected, All**. Search with **Search author, comment or story**.

## What’s in a comment?

You see the commenter’s name and email, time, site, the story commented on and the IP address. The buttons next to it:

- **Reply:** Reply to the comment from the dashboard.
- **Approve:** The comment goes live on the site.
- **Reject:** The comment isn’t published.
- **Delete:** The comment is deleted permanently.

Whether comments need approval and whether membership is required to comment is set in the membership settings on the **Users** page. See [reader accounts](https://ulakom.com/md/en/help/engagement/reader-accounts.md).

> **Tip:** As the publisher you may be responsible for comments containing insults or personal data. We recommend approving comments before they go live.
