There’s one thing that I find really annoying in WordPress. For every post, page, custom post type, in the posts list there’s a link to view that specific post. It shows when you hover over the post title, but there’s not a View Comment link in the comments list. Why not?



I don’t know, maybe it’s a good core patch idea, but for the moment, here is a snippet that you can use to add such link.

Add this code to your functions.php file in wp-content/themes/your-child-theme-name/ at the end of the file:

Once you added it, save the file and go to Dashboard > Comments, hover over the content of a comment from that list and you will see the View Comment link after the Trash link.
