You can learn about the Auto-moderation rule, the Manual filter, and Chrome IG Story extension. If you&#8217;ve been spotting comments that aren&#8217;t appropriate for your brand&#8217;s voice, you can ban them or delete them. Below, we&#8217;ve listed the steps you need to take.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Manual_filter\"><\/span>Manual filter<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Using a manual filter to hide a comment on Instagram is a great way to prevent people from seeing your comments on your photos. Once you&#8217;ve applied a filter, your comment will only be visible to you and people you have invited to view it. You can also choose to blacklist certain words, phrases, or accounts. In this way, you&#8217;ll only see comments that you have explicitly approved.<\/p>\n<p>You may have noticed that your comments are being hidden because you&#8217;ve found them offensive. However, there are other ways to hide specific comments, such as using the Manual Filter. If a user has used a certain word or phrase, they can enter it into a specific field and press &#8220;filter.&#8221; You can also choose to filter for &#8220;most reported words&#8221; in order to prevent people from seeing your comments.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Auto-moderation_rule\"><\/span>Auto-moderation rule<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to keep the content of your Instagram posts private, you can use an auto-moderation rule to hide the comment. Instagram has recently rolled out a new feature called Smart Moderation, which can automatically remove all comments from your profile that might be offensive. This feature can also detect and filter out private messages. While it is possible to edit the comment&#8217;s language, this option is not ideal. For example, if the person posting the comment is not using any spaces, the auto-moderation rule will not work.<\/p>\n<p>You can use auto-moderation rules to delete comments posted on your Instagram account. In order to hide an Instagram comment, you should set an auto-moderation rule with the action &#8220;Delete.&#8221; In order to hide a comment on Instagram, follow the instructions given in the video. Creating an auto-moderation rule is easy. Using an auto-moderation rule will ensure that no spammy comments are visible to your followers.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Chrome_IG_Story_extension\"><\/span>Chrome IG Story extension<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re wondering how to hide a comment on Instagram, you&#8217;ve come to the right place. You can do this with the Chrome IG Story extension. This extension allows you to download and delete videos from Instagram, and it even offers the ability to hide comments that people make on your account. However, you&#8217;ll have to use the Chrome desktop version of the extension in order to use it.<\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve installed the extension, you&#8217;ll find an icon in the upper right corner of your browser window. Click on the icon to see your Buddy Stories. From there, you can access your live videos and select one to download. You can also filter your comments based on words or emojis. After the extension is installed, you can start hiding comments and emojis on your Instagram page.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Delete_a_comment_or_ban_the_user\"><\/span>Delete a comment or ban the user<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve received an offensive comment on an Instagram post, you can easily remove it by following the steps below:<\/p>\n<p>You can block users by clicking the &#8220;block&#8221; button under their comments. This will only affect their profile, not yours. Sometimes Instagram hides comments, which can be offensive, for a variety of reasons. To restore a blocked comment, you simply have to tap the &#8220;Unhide&#8221; button beneath the hidden comment. Once you&#8217;ve gotten your comment back, you can delete it again.<\/p>\n<p>You can also choose to block a user if they consistently post comments that are offensive. You can block a user by choosing the &#8220;block&#8221; option from their profile settings. Once they&#8217;ve been blocked, they can&#8217;t view or comment on your posts. Similarly, if someone makes a comment that is offensive, you can delete it with a swipe. Once you&#8217;ve deleted a user, he or she will no longer be able to view your post or leave comments.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"374\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Usl1AWgEqnQ\" height=\"209\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Hide a Comment on Instagram If you&#8217;ve wondered how to hide a comment on Instagram, then you&#8217;ve come to the right place.
