Comments and trackbacks

Follow

You can follow comments and trackbacks on your blog in several ways: by signing up for your own comment RSS feed, by asking for mail notification or by logging on to the comment management interface in your blog's administration zone.

Signing up to the comment RSS feed

You can, just like your visitors, sign up for your own blog's comment RSS feed. If you are a beginner in the matter, you can visit this help page.

Be notified by e-mail

To be notified of every comment posted on your blog, go to the Email notification section in your user preferences.

You must provide a valid e-mail address in your preferences for the notification to be active
