Hi I have two questions about any wordpress themes.

Question number 1)

when someone is leaving a comment how can I add this feature?

Name (requied),

Email address(required) But the email address will not be published in public. But that email address will come to an email inbox.

Comment(visitors comment)

Reply option from administrator

When I need to reply is it possible to hit a reply link and reply from the front end of the website directly instead of logging into the admin panel?

I also want to be able to delete the comments I need to. How can I add this to my wordpress website?

Question number 2:

I will have a lot fo products in my website. How someone can search the website for products by typing the name only. This will sho realted products as well. If the name does not match then it will only show the related search items.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi wpsma,

  1. By default WordPress functionality has a form that includes:
    • Name
    • Email (only shown to administrator)
    • Website
    • Comment
    • This information will be sent to the site administrator via a notification email when a comment is made. Most themes will keep that functionality.

      1. The notifcation email the administrator receives includes a link to the original blog post. You can click on that link to reply via the front end of the site. You'll want to make sure you are logged in so the response is posted by your user account.

      2. Deleting comments is possible via the WordPress dashboard. When logged in, click Comments in the left hand menu. You will see all comments on the site sorted newest to oldest. You can hover over a comment and press the Trash link to delete the comment.

      3. I'm answering the product search option as if you are using WooCommerce as the ecommerce plugin. WooCommerce adds a Widget named "WooCommerce Product Search" that will add a sidebar search box for your products specifically.
