I put this in the wrong forum to begin with, so here it is copied over, and I'll try to get the wrong one deleted, sorry! But here goes.

 

Dear folks, I thought there was a way to have the ability to reply to posts within a topic. So that when a reply was made to that post, the reply would drop in immediately below the post. Is this feature not in our core anymore?

Thanks

John

It sounds as though you're describing a tree:

- Reply 1
- - Reply 3
- - - Reply 9
- - Reply 6
- - - Reply 8

- Reply 2
- - Reply 4

- Reply 5

- Reply 7

It that's what you mean, then that's not been the norm in forums for years. I don't think I've seen it since ... 2008? 2010? It's not available in IPS4, anyway.

Thanks, so when a person replies to a post in a topic, how do we know which post they replied too? Especially if they don't use the quote function?
