So ItWasMe asked me a question in regards to some pictures I posted, and when I went to leave a comment replying, it somehow became a "moderated comment." It shows up when I look at the post itself and when I look at a page called "Approve Comments." However, there seems to be no way for me to approve the actual comment. I don't have moderated comments turned on in my blog, either. Help, please!

there should be a check box on the left side of the comment. there is a pull down menu on the right side. click on approve.

it auto does that for spam blocking when there are links embedded into the post.

There doesn't appear to any checkbox or pulldown menu on the page, though. Or am I completely missing where it is?

That little checkbox doesn't check. And the pulldown menu is the view filter for viewing comments; it only says "All Comments", "Deleted Comments", and "Moderated Comments." There is nothing about approving a comment.

Nope, can't select the checkbox, and there's no pulldown menu.

I have the exact same problem as described in the OP. I cannot approve moderated comments and I cannot select comments to approve.

If there is a switch that needs to be flipped for my blog (post #11), can a mod or admin do that for me please.

Thanks!

Glory's Sun

I went ahead and approved the comments for you thirdsun. Checking with some others to see why you can't do it yourself.. maybe it's a usergroup permissions thing again.

what skin are you using?

Cynthetiq

yes, permissions problem.

I fixed it.

Thanks, guys. I am using TFP Green, but did try a couple of the other ones before posting. I appreciate the help.

Yep, it's working now. Tried on an older post that needed approval.
