## Resolving comments

Resolving comments will remove them from within the **active** comment list in comment mode, and from your alert inbox. This makes tracking outstanding versus old comments simple.

* Select the check icon to resolve the comment
* Resolved comments can be reviewed from the right sidebar **Resolved** tab
* Resolved comments can be reverted back to **Active** by reselecting the check icon on the comment

## Editing & deleting comments

You may find yourself needing to edit or delete comments you have made. This is helpful if you want to reword your comment or if it was added by accident.

* Within the editor’s comment mode, select the comment you would like to edit or delete
* When hover on the open comment, select the 3 dot icon to the right
* Select edit or delete from the contextual menu

***

## Commenter role

All workspace members can leave, review, and resolve comments. Some team members need only leave comments, which is ideal for the **Commenter** role. **Commenters** have access only to the comment mode of the project editor. This is great for teammates that only need to leave feedback. Learn more about [Workspace Members](/workspace-members).
