Reply to and moderate comments

Read a live post's public comments in lmnts, and reply to, hide or delete them as the account.

For everyone

A live post's public comments show in lmnts, below its numbers. Everyone who can see the post can read them. Only your team can reply, hide or delete; client logins see the comments read-only.

  1. Step 1: Open the client's Live tab and select a post.

  2. Step 2: Scroll to Comments.

  3. Step 3: To answer a comment, select Reply under it, write your answer and select Reply. To comment on the post itself, select Write a comment, then Comment.

  4. Step 4: Select Hide to hide a comment from the public, and Unhide to bring it back. Hidden comments are marked Hidden.

  5. Step 5: Select Delete to remove a comment for good, then confirm.

  • The emoji button adds an emoji to any reply. The GIF button on Facebook works when GIFs in comments are turned on in the client's Preferences.
  • YouTube sends only some replies in a long thread. When there are more, lmnts says how many and links to View there.
  • A LinkedIn page marked Reconnect to turn on comments needs one reconnect first. See Connect LinkedIn.
  • TikTok comments aren't shown in lmnts. Use View on TikTok to answer them there.
