Trying nested comments

September 24, 2009 by Fr. Johannes Jacobse ·

There's more inside!

I noticed that all conversation runs in one stream. If we want to comment, we put the post number in the top corner and go from there. To follow a conversation we have to scroll up and down. Nested comments keep the conversations grouped according to respondents. Let’s try it out and see if it works better. To use it, hit “Reply” in the box of the comment you are responding to. If you are not directly responding to an earlier comment, just post as you did before.

The numbering of the Nested Comments reminds me of Wittgenstein’s Tractatus. Fun.
