• I would like to make it so that comments are not visible in articles until they are approved.
    On my blog, https://blog.thetechgurus.net registration is required before posting, and I have comments set to be approved by the administrator, but they still are visible on the article even without being approved.
    Is there a setting I’m missing or is there another way to get this to work right?

    As blog owner, you will see them.
    The comment author will also see them.
    But are you sure everyone else can ?

    I tested this with 2 browsers and 3 accounts.

    I use Firefox exclusively. Under my admin account and comment-creator account, both using the same email address, it showed up on the article even though it was unmoderated. I tried IE, same thing.

    I created another account using another email address. Same thing in Firefox and IE. It should not have been visible to this account.

    I cleared my cache and cookies in Firefox. Now it does not show up under any of the 3 accounts at all. IE is acting the same way.

    It appears random. At first it happens all the time, now not at all, even with accounts that SHOULD be able to see it anyway.
