The most beginner-friendly way to allow users to edit comments in WordPress is to use the Comment Edit Core plugin . This simple plugin works out of the box and allows you to set your own time limit for users to edit comments.
During our testing, we found that this plugin only allows logged in users to edit comments. It doesn't work with comments left by anonymous users or comments waiting to be approved , so keep that in mind.
The first thing you need to do is install and activate the list of argentina cell phone number Comment Edit Core plugin. For detailed instructions, see our step-by-step guide on how to install a WordPress plugin .
After activation, WordPress users can edit their comments for the first 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, users can no longer edit their comments.
To change this time limit, go to Settings »
You can use any time limit by entering a number in the “Edit timer in minutes” field, but we recommended setting the time limit to less than 30 minutes because we want to give users the opportunity to fix errors immediately.
Another thing you can customize is the appearance of the timer. You can use a compact format (e.g. 5:00) or a word format (e.g. 5 minutes).
Last but not least, you can change the theme of the comment editor to better match your WordPress theme . You can choose the normal, light or dark theme. Check out the theme preview before making your choice.
When you are satisfied with the comment editing options, click the “Save Options” button on the settings page.
