Hello there,

I hope you are doing well today.

In order to have the required field star then you need to edit the contact form that you are using and change the desired field to be a required field.

This guide should help you:

I see, this Tutorial is for “Contact Form 7 plugin”. I I do not use that Plugin =/  
This is the Standard comment from Wordpress.

HI wurm400

This is not default WordPress comments form then use this plugin: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/what-the-file/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/what-the-file/) to get the file name used for this page, then open that file in the code editor find your strings and edit it, at the end don’t forget to use child theme for changes
