These include clearing your browser cache and cookies, reporting inappropriate comments, and allowing comments to appear on your YouTube channel. If you want to delete or moderate a comment before it shows up on your YouTube channel, then you need to clear your browser cookies and cache as well. Finally, you need to understand how to view your comment history.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Clearing_your_browser_cache_and_cookies_to_enable_comments_on_YouTube\"><\/span>Clearing your browser cache and cookies to enable comments on YouTube<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In some cases, you might have trouble loading YouTube comments. If this is the case, clearing your browser cache and cookies may solve the problem. Caching on websites can result in the loss of stored login information. You may also have trouble with loading websites and apps after clearing your browser cache and cookies. To clear your browser&#8217;s cache and cookies, simply click on the menu icon in the top right corner of your browser and select &#8220;Clear recent history, cache, and cookies.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve cleared your cache and cookies and still can&#8217;t see comments, you may be using a browser extension that&#8217;s interfering with your video experience. In this case, you should disable any extensions that are preventing you from viewing YouTube videos. However, you must remove them first if they&#8217;re corrupted. The easiest way to clear your browser&#8217;s cache and cookies is to uninstall any extensions that may be causing the problem.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reporting_inappropriate_comments_on_YouTube\"><\/span>Reporting inappropriate comments on YouTube<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve come across a comment on a video that you find offensive, rude, or containing questionable content, you can report it to YouTube. The reporting option is hidden behind the comment, but you can find it by hovering your mouse over the comment and clicking the three dots on the right side. Choose &#8216;Report spam or abuse&#8217;. YouTube will then filter and separate the inappropriate comments. It may take up to a few days for a moderation team to review your comment.<\/p>\n<p>To report a video, you must first log into your YouTube account. Once you have logged in, you will see a button called &#8220;Report video.&#8221; Here, you should type the name of the video or comment that is offensive and click &#8220;Submit.&#8221; You will need to provide a reason for your report, and you can also add a comment to confirm that it&#8217;s indeed inappropriate. If the video has no author, you can report it anonymously.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Moderating_comments_before_they_become_visible_on_YouTube\"><\/span>Moderating comments before they become visible on YouTube<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re marketing a video on YouTube, comment moderation is essential. If your comments are full of spam and inappropriate content, it won&#8217;t do you any good to drive traffic to your video. In order to ensure your comments don&#8217;t get lost in the mix, follow these tips for successful comment moderation. Also, consider pinning your comments to the top of your feed. This will help them appear at the top of people&#8217;s feeds, allowing you to be more visible to viewers.<\/p>\n<p>Moderating comments before they become visible on your video will allow you to decide which comments are worthy of being shown, which ones to hide, and which to approve. It also gives you the ability to add trusted users as comment moderators, which is an excellent option for weeding out comments that are hurtful or offensive. Then, when necessary, you can approve or reject a comment, or remove it altogether. Comments that are flagged for moderation will show up in a tab called &#8220;Held for review.&#8221; Here, you can decide whether to publish or delete the comment.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Viewing_your_comment_history_on_YouTube\"><\/span>Viewing your comment history on YouTube<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When watching a video, you may have made multiple comments at once. Now, you can view all of those comments. Fortunately, YouTube provides a way to view your comment history. Click the &#8220;Comments&#8221; link on the right side menu to view all of them. You can then delete them or edit them. If you&#8217;d like to see your past comments, you can always go to your Google My Activity page and click on the &#8220;Comments&#8221; link again.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to view your comment history on YouTube, you&#8217;ll need to log in. To view your comment history, log in to YouTube and open the website. Select the &#8220;History&#8221; option from the left-hand hamburger menu. Once you&#8217;re on the homepage, click the &#8220;Comments&#8221; button in the right-hand corner of the page. Then, click the &#8220;Edit&#8221; button to edit any mistakes.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7IN3QqLa5wc\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" height=\"236\" width=\"423\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Allow Comments on YouTube If you want to allow comments on YouTube, there are several things you need to know first.
