1999.io provides a mechanism for people to post comments to stories, but unfortunately it doesn't provide a method to notify the site owners that one has posted a comment.
I have two suggestions for site owners. If you are going to basically ignore comments (meaning that you aren't really going to spend time to see whether anyone has posted a comment) you may consider turning comments off. You do this in Settings, Access and uncheck the "Allow anyone who is logged in to comment" option.
If you want to keep comments, I recommend thinking of your 1999.io editor page as a news feed. New comments will appear on this page and I think you will find them easier to find them here than in the rendered web site. Get in the habit of scanning through your "feed" at least once a day.
Good thoughts Frank - thankyou
Good advice, but I offer a clarification on the terms. I find it is the Editor that I must scan down to see comments and likes on my postings. From the Editor, if I go to my Home page [Main menu ---> View my Home page] I get a chronological display of all my Story pages, but comments and likes do not appear there! See Dave's posting on Terminology.
Thanks, I have made the edit to my original blog post.
