 * I’m guessing you’re referring to the comments page in the backend?
 * Are you using a plugin for that? If so, which one?
 * Try clearing the cache of the cache plugin.

 * Thanks for this answer. I created my site with WordPress theme “Music Freak”.
   I use a standard version on particular the comment page of that theme. So no 
   particular plugin. I can do what you suggest, clearing the cache. But … can you
   tell me how to do that simply, please ?
 * Thanks for your answer.

 * As I said, clearing the cache would only be relevant if you’re using a cache 
   plugin. You can check the list of plugins to see if you have one. Depending on
   which one it is (if there is one), there’s usually a button labeled “Clear Cache”
   or something similar that you need to click.
 * However, this usually only affects the front end. If you’re referring to the 
   list of comments in the back end, it should work even without caching. Could 
   you show us a screenshot of that view? Maybe we’ll be able to identify the cause.

 * Hello
 * I had the screenshot on my web site.

 * The screenshot is located at the bottom of the page.
 * Thanks for your help.

 * Okay, so this shows that you currently have 25 comments. And where aren’t they
   showing up? They all seem to be there in the backend. What URL should they be
   at in the frontend?

 * Gloups, one precision : the two first comments (Palou + Martin) have been approved
   but the dont appear on the comment page. All the others comments have been approved
   and appear.
 * Il you go on the comment page, you’ll see that those two comments dosen’t appear
   on the page.

 * ReGloups
 * The comments appear when you click on the side list but do not appear on the 
   central list with all the comments. Why ? What can I do to get all the comments
   ordered by date ?
 * Thanks for your answer

 * Again: What is the “comments page” on your site? What are you referring to?

 * ReReGloups,
 * Something strange is that the site tells 22 comments when it’s in fact 25 !

 * Sorry
 * The Comment page is : [http://gg-music.fr/commentaires/](http://gg-music.fr/commentaires/)

 * Ok, I think I understood. My friend has sent me a comment on the Articles page(
   Bonjour tout le monde) and I answered on the comment page? If you go on the Welcome
   page (Accueil), you’ll see that the missing articles are in the “Articles récents”.
   In fact, it’s a confusion between Articles ans Comments.
 * I think I must simply indicate to my friends to use only the comment pages and
   no other one.
 * Thanks for your help anyway, it helps me to understand the mistake.

 * Ah, yes, that explains my confusion. You’re using a page to enable comments in
   general, rather than using the comment feature directly below your posts or pages.
   And yes, if someone comments somewhere else, the comment will only appear there–
   not on your comments page.
 * If you want to use only this page for comments, you should disable the comment
   feature on all other pages. You can do this in the admin panel when editing pages
   or posts. There, in the page / post properties, you can disable the option to
   allow comments.
 * You should also go to Settings > Discussion in the admin panel and uncheck the
   box that enables comments in general. Don’t worry: this only applies to newly
   created pages and posts – not to existing pages like your comments page.
