In the comments module, I have allowed all profile owners to delete comments. So I expected to be able to delete comments on pages I have created as Admin.

In Site Builder, I can use the tools menu to browse and then modify a page, but I cannot see or delete the comments when modifying a page.

Its seems as if I need to delete the entire page in order to delete the comments.

Is this drastic method the only easy way to delete comments on a page?

In the comments area, I do see the quote button, but even after refreshing the page, there is no other button showing.

If you are using the default templates, and the user is allowed to delete comments, the trashcan icon should show when hovering over a comment. Are you not seeing that?

Its important to include a URL with this type of question. There could be multiple locations and if you're looking at a different one to us, the conversation will quickly get confusing.

--edit--
even a relative one if you want to keep your site anonymous

The issue is you have that page set to display on the main site the delete buttons only show on the profile pages. I'll open a tracker to see if its possible to add in this location.

For now, you can disable comments on that page by going here:
http://researchcooperative.org/page/update/id=5

and uncheck the "Allow Item Features".

If you just wanted to delete one specific comment, change the "Page Location" to "Page is visible on profile", then you will be able to delete the comments from the page on your profile, then change it back to the main site.

Thanks.

I could disable the comments, but willy nilly the tags are gone too, being bundled together with comments as "item features".

I can show everything again by resetting to "Allow Item Features", but for now I will leave them unchecked, and think about setting up an issue tracker.

Thanks Michael, Please do open the issue tracker for this. Meanwhile I'll call this "In Progress".
