MainWP Comments Extension

Manage WordPress Comments Across All Client Sites from One Dashboard

Moderating comments across multiple WordPress sites should not mean opening a dozen admin tabs, switching between client dashboards, and repeating the same actions site by site.

The MainWP Comments Extension gives you a centralized way to review, filter, moderate, and manage comments across all connected Child Sites directly from your MainWP Dashboard.

Whether you manage a handful of client websites or a large WordPress care plan portfolio, this extension helps you stay on top of comment activity without disrupting your workflow.

Built for WordPress Agencies Managing Multiple Sites

Client sites can attract everything from genuine customer questions to spam, outdated replies, and comments that need quick review before publishing.

The MainWP Comments Extension helps agencies and developers handle that work from one familiar place. Instead of logging into each individual WordPress admin area, you can view and manage comments across your network from your MainWP Dashboard.

Approve pending comments, mark spam, edit replies, delete unwanted comments, or handle moderation in bulk – all without leaving your centralized workspace.

Moderate Comments Faster with Bulk Actions

When you are managing comments across multiple client sites, repetitive tasks add up quickly.

With the MainWP Comments Extension, you can perform common moderation actions in bulk, including:

• Approve comments
• Unapprove comments
• Mark comments as spam
• Unspam comments
• Restore comments
• Delete comments

This is especially useful for agencies that regularly clean up spam, review pending comments, or maintain content-heavy websites where comment activity is part of the ongoing maintenance process.

Review Individual Comments When Details Matter

Bulk actions are useful, but not every comment should be handled the same way.

The MainWP Comments Extension also gives you the control to manage comments individually. You can review a comment, check its context, edit it when needed, approve it, unapprove it, mark it as spam, or move it to the trash from your MainWP Dashboard.

That balance makes the extension practical for both routine cleanup and more careful moderation work.

Find the Comments That Need Your Attention

The extension includes filtering tools that help you quickly narrow down comment activity across your Child Sites.

You can filter comments by status, search by keyword, or review comments from a specific date range. This makes it easier to focus on what matters most, whether that is pending comments awaiting approval, suspected spam, or recent activity across client sites.

For agencies, this means less time digging through individual dashboards and more time taking action.

See Recent Comment Activity at a Glance

The Recent Comments widget on the Site Overview page gives you a quick snapshot of comment activity for a selected site.

You can view recent approved, pending, and trashed comments, then take action directly from the widget. It is a simple way to check comment activity during routine site reviews without opening the full WordPress admin area.

Include Comment Moderation Activity in Client Reports

Comment moderation is part of ongoing site care, but clients do not always see the work behind it.

With the MainWP Comments Extension, agencies can include comment moderation activity in client reports when using the MainWP Pro Reports Extension. This helps show work such as reviewing comments, approving valid discussions, removing unwanted comments, and keeping comment sections clean across client sites.

For care plan clients, it adds useful context to your reports and gives them a clearer picture of the maintenance work being completed each month.

Track Comment Actions with Network Activity Support

The MainWP Comments Extension now supports the Network Activity feature, giving you better visibility into comment-related actions across your MainWP-managed sites.

For agencies, this is especially valuable when multiple team members are involved in site maintenance. Activity logging helps you keep a clearer record of moderation work, making it easier to review what was changed, when it happened, and who handled it.

That added visibility supports better internal accountability and gives your team a more complete picture of ongoing site management activity.

REST API Support for More Flexible Workflows

The MainWP Comments Extension also includes REST API support, giving developers and advanced teams more flexibility when building custom workflows around comment management.

Whether you are connecting MainWP data to internal tools, automating reporting, or creating custom agency processes, REST API support gives you more room to adapt comment management to the way your team works.
