In the dashboard, I can only display the 50 more recent comments. I need to view the information of a certain comment that is older than that to check the poster's ip. What can I do?

Since the expert is busy, one of your fellow novices is trying to help - with what effect yet unknown. Smile

Do you know when, or to which post, the comment was attached? If so, maybe you can get at it through the post itself. I find that if I go to a post through edit, it lists existing comments and trackbacks right under the header Edit Article. If I click on that listing, it displays the comments in the same format as it does on the admin home page.

I don't know what you can do with that, but it does show you the same stuff about the comment as is displayed for newer ones. Would you mind telling what and/or how you can manipulate that information, or gain further access to it?

Thanks for your help. I got an annonymus comment and wanted to check if it was written by someone I had in mine, that's why I wanted to know that person's ip. I didn't know that when I edited an article I could see the comments, but thanks to you, now I know.

Um, well, thanks ... I think. Laughing

Only problem is, I don't know how one can check an IP number from that information. Is it possible? If so, somebody please tell me now.

It appears automatically, doesn't it? You get some info from the poster when you view the comments.

Embarassed I don't know how I missed noticing that before.

Now it should be obvious that John shouldn't take a vacation without lining up a competent Wink stand-in - and that clearly ain't me.

Obvious things are the easiest to overlook, aren't they? Very Happy
