 * This has appeared on my Dashboard. What does this mean and is there any risk 
   in doing it?
 * “Please synchronize comment data for the best performance and fastest experience.”
 * Thank you.

 * We are using the wpDiscuz plugin for comments.

 * In that case, I recommend asking at [https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wpdiscuz/](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wpdiscuz/)
   so the plugin’s developers and support community can help you with this.

 * Got it. Did it. Thanks!
 * Turns out that it is a handy little feature of wpDiscuz that is seldom needed,
   and safe to run even if you are not sure you need it. The catch is that to run
   it you need to click on Synchronize Commenters Data on the Dashboard and the 
   scroll way down on the next page that appears, then look again for Synchronize
   Commenters Data and then click on that to actually make it run. It ran quick 
   and that was that.
