Comment management in WordPress isn’t too hard when you manually approve each comment. You know which comments you’ve seen, and which you haven’t. The only downside is that you have to approve the comments before they appear. Comment Inbox gives you the ease of the moderation queue with the freedom of unmoderated comments. It’s a better way to deal with spam and bacn on your blog.
Here’s how it works:
- All comments except caught spam go into moderation (renamed “Comment Inbox”)
- All comments in your Comment Inbox immediately show up on the blog — so conversations don’t wait on your moderation skills
- There are three actions that can be performed on comments in your Comment Inbox: Archive (i.e. mark as read), Spam, Delete
- When your Comment Inbox is empty, you can rest easy knowing you’ve dealt with all your new comments
