\nOn the Dashboard, comments are listed under the \u201cRecent Comments\u201d area. Mouse over to the one you want to reply to and click on \u201cReply\u201d. Another way to do this is to click on the \u201cComments\u201d tab on the left sidebar of the Dashboard and select “Reply” on the comment that you want to reply to.<\/p>\n
\nNo options are directly available on WordPress for replying comments privately. Therefore you have to reply via email. To find the email address of the author of a comment, click on the \u201cComments\u201d tab on the left sidebar of the Dashboard. The email address are right below the author’s name on each comment. After you reply privately, let others know that the comment has been replied. To do this, go into \u201cEdit\u201d of the comment that you\u2019ve replied to, and add the line \u201cReplied privately by (your name goes here)\u201d to the author name field.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
