Hi Kyle. I noticed that when I reply to a comment via SiteComment, it is always done using the admin user account.
I have another account with the name 'Timotheus'. I feel it is better to reply comments using this account. Is there a way to approve and reply to a comment using SiteComment and have it with my user account, 'Timotheus'?
You can set these up within SiteComments, under your settings you can add additional gravatar accounts that you can comment with.

I hope this helps you out here. :)
Thanks Kyle.
I have set up my Gravatars. But every time I reply to a comment, it still uses the 'admin' user profile.
What am I doing wrong?

Hi Kyle, just watched your video on setting up a avatar for my new email with gravatar, followed all your instructions, setting up the new email to my website completed, checked my new email address with gravatar check, cam up with my new address okay.
Then checked Users in Wordpress, no new user added or with an avatar image.
refreshed browser etc no change, cannot see any change!
Do I set up a new user manually? There are a lot of steps, what am I missing?

Abie I am confused too...to make a comment you have to have an email associated with Gravatar..to do that I need a user showing on word press that isn't there, do I just create one? I have a domain specific email is that the same thing? very confused :(
Hi Kyle and thanks for the training. Am I hearing you correctly when you indicate that as an affiliate marketer, I can have multiple websites?
Of course you can, and through time you most definitely will. The things is you ideally want to get the formula for success down within ONE website, before you diversify and get involved in many different sites, many niches, and promote a wide variety of products/services. ;)

Great lesson Kyle,
I'm still waiting on a new laptop and will be settling into the depths of WA and performing comments very soon for credits. I'm actually waiting for boxing day specials to see if any are avail.... In the meantime I'm publishing new content each day to stay ahead of the curve when the time comes - content creation and the platform is easy on my phone, some of the other tasks like adding pictures from the back office are a little tougher. Thanks again for another value added lesson!
