Does that admin page in WordPress still exist where you can view a big table of all of your comments, and where you can search through them and other useful stuff?
It was called ‘Tableau de bord’ in my French interface π , I dunno what it would’ve been in English. It was Settings or Tools -> then this page.
Thanks if anyone knows! Maybe they restricted it to paid users.

Dashboard – Comments on the left menu ?

Thank you!! Yes that was it, but I don’t have ‘Dashboard’ anymore. Maybe they’re rolling out a change to the menu and A/B testing it and I’m just one of the unlucky users to lose the dashboard π.
‘Dashboard’ must be what ‘tableau de bord’ means, makes sense :).

Great!! Since I knew what I was searching for, I found this help page:
https://wordpress.com/support/dashboard/
What they’ve done is combined those ‘advanced’ features with the normal ones, and put a toggle switch in the Profile β> Account Settings page to enable/disable them. So once I’d enabled it, the usual standard ‘Comments’ section became the advanced one that I used to see in Dashboard.

Haha, it wasn’t reallyβ¦π . Thanks! Just wait until you lose it too though, haha. Software companies usually try out changes on a random portion of the users before rolling it out fully. They may decide against it, but I know wordpress likes to be as annoying as possible :).

They are indeed annoying. If it were not frindship I have on this platform, I won’t be using this platform because the changes are so rapid and inconvenient.

Indeed! A new popular replacement service will come along eventually :). The whole thing is massively bloated, trying to do too many things.

One thing I like about WP is that it’s relatively professional, in comparison to other (social media) platform

Oh, yeah I agree. It would have to be more professional too, that was what I was imagining :).
But then at the same time, maybe professional means appealing to business as well as personal users, and appealing to business means needing flexibility and bloated set of features all over again. And in order to offer a free personal service, it’s necessary to offset that with paid business services. So to be honest, a free service like wordpress is probably always going to have its faults from the fact that it’s free.

Not so, I have been a paid WP user for 2 years. And I feel for the price I paid, it is dissapointing, in comparison to say Microsoft 365. I don’t get the value for dollar.

Ohhh, yeah you need to stop paying for it, it’s really not worth paying for! ππ. I am surprised how much it costs, too.
