Learn how to delete it! Whether you have made a mistake or someone has been troll-ing your videos, you can remove them by following a few simple steps. Then, you can report inappropriate comments or delete older comments. In addition to deleting comments, you can also disable comments on your own videos. You can even report comments to YouTube if you feel like you need to make some changes.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Disable_comments_on_your_YouTube_channel\"><\/span>Disable comments on your YouTube channel<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve ever wondered how to disable comments on your YouTube channel, you&#8217;ve come to the right place. Disabling comments on your YouTube channel will make it impossible for people to post negative comments about your videos. Though they are a great way to engage with your audience, they&#8217;re also a hotbed for bots and trolls. And, if you&#8217;re not comfortable with the amount of time it takes to moderate the comments left on your channel, you can also disable the comments completely.<\/p>\n<p>Disabling comments on your YouTube channel is easy. Just go to the Advanced settings of your channel and look for the option labeled &#8220;disabled comments&#8221;. Click Disabled comments and save. You can choose to enable comments for individual videos or for the entire channel. It&#8217;s important to choose this option wisely, because the comments on some of your videos may be inappropriate for your audience. If you want to remove all comments, you should consider setting up your channel to allow only appropriate comments.<\/p>\n<p>There are several ways to disable comments on your YouTube channel. To enable comments on certain videos, click the toggle icon on the top right corner of the video. Toggling the comment option on and off will enable or disable comments. You can then save your changes. Once you&#8217;ve finished editing your videos, don&#8217;t forget to enable comments on your videos! You&#8217;ll be glad you did. You&#8217;re sure to get plenty of views with these videos, and they&#8217;ll keep your channel looking good.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Edit_or_delete_your_own_comments_on_YouTube\"><\/span>Edit or delete your own comments on YouTube<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve ever posted a comment on a YouTube video, you know that you can delete it if you&#8217;d like to. There are several ways you can delete a comment, depending on whether you left it on a video or on a channel. YouTube also offers the option of hiding a YouTube channel, which will hide the content for a while. However, if you&#8217;re not comfortable leaving comments on other people&#8217;s content, you can always hide your YouTube channel to prevent unwanted commenting.<\/p>\n<p>First of all, you can view the comments that you have left on your own videos. Once you&#8217;ve done that, go to the &#8220;Comment History&#8221; section of the page. Here, you&#8217;ll see a list of all the comments that have been left on your videos. In this list, you&#8217;ll find the ones that you&#8217;ve left and a link that will take you to the page where you left them. Click on this link to view or delete the comments.<\/p>\n<p>Next, you can edit or delete your own comments on YouTube. To do this, sign in to your YouTube account and click on the hamburger icon. Scroll down to your comments and look for the one you&#8217;d like to delete. Hover over it to see the flag or X icon. Then click on the &#8220;X&#8221; to delete the comment. If you&#8217;re having trouble deleting a comment, you can also share it with others.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Report_inappropriate_comments_on_YouTube\"><\/span>Report inappropriate comments on YouTube<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When you&#8217;ve come across something offensive or controversial on YouTube, you can report it so that the video owner can make changes. YouTube filters content to keep it appropriate, but sometimes users can still come across inappropriate material. Here are some tips for reporting questionable content on YouTube. If you think someone is posting content that is inappropriate for your children, you can file a report and let YouTube know. The content will then be reviewed for compliance with YouTube&#8217;s Community Guidelines.<\/p>\n<p>To report a video, click the three-dot icon in the upper right-hand corner of your homepage. Select the &#8220;History&#8221; option and choose the appropriate reason. You can also choose to report an account, video, or channel. Afterward, click &#8220;Report&#8221; and select the appropriate reason for reporting the comment. Once the video is flagged, you&#8217;ll be sent an email confirming that you&#8217;ve reported the comment.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve been offended by a comment posted by a friend or a complete stranger on YouTube, you can report it to YouTube&#8217;s Customer Support Team. YouTube has an option for people to edit their comments before they post them. This option will not prevent people from commenting on YouTube, and it won&#8217;t appear on every comment. But you can edit it before you post it to help the site respond quickly to inappropriate content.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe width=\"472\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"264\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UmjRMUwdh8M\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Delete a Comment on YouTube Having a problem with a comment on your YouTube video?
