 * I have a question about comments. When someone shares my blog article link on
   Mastodon, i see that as a comment in the WordPress backend. But it doesn’t show
   up on the front end.
 * Is this by design? Is there a setting I need to adjust? Or is this a bug?
   i am
   using wp 7 and divi 5

 * Hey [@annubis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/annubis/) 👋
 * they will be excluded from the comments frontend and should show up as face-piles
   when you use the reactions block. Here an example: [https://activitypub.blog/2026/06/12/9-0-0-growing-up/#:~:text=do%20all%20along%3F-,Share%20this%3A,-Share](https://activitypub.blog/2026/06/12/9-0-0-growing-up/#:~:text=do%20all%20along%3F-,Share%20this%3A,-Share)
