# Cannot Delete comment

 * I have 2 test comments that I deleted in the admin. They are still showing on
   the front end. I emptied my trash and cleared my cache. They are still showing.
   Has anyone ever encountered this? I cannot get rid of the comment for the life
   of me no matter what I do. Do I really need to go into the DB and delete it?
   
   Thanks, J

 * Somehow they went away. Not sure if it just took a while to update the database.
   or if there was some sort of browser caching issue. Thanks for the reply though.
