    This add-on enables nested commenting (comment on comment, reply to comment) for ExpressionEngine 2.x.

    You can have unlimited depth of comment nesting.

    Threaded comments module is using same database table that first-party comment module does will respect all commentings settings you have. It contains all extension hooks that comments module does, so all of your extensions will work.

    All variables available with exp:comment:entries are available with exp:threaded_comments:display as well.

    You can use different html for different levels of comments. Commenters are able to subscribe to notifications only for selected thread.

    Hi Yuriy, I’m really excited to see that you have created this add-on!  I’ve been using Weever on one of my EE1 sites for a long time now and not having this functionality in EE2 has been holding me back from upgrading to EE2.  I have a few questions that I’m hoping you can answer:
    - Is there a demo of this working?  or any screenshots?
    - Will there be a version for EE1?
    - Is there any migration path to move from Weever to Threaded Comments?  Or do I just need to move from EE1 w/Weever, to EE2, and then installed Threaded Comments on EE2?

    I apologize if these questions should be asked elsewhere.  Let me know if that is the case.

    Thanks,
    Omkar

    Hi Omkar,

    there is no demo yet. I should have set it up on my site long time ago, but you know how that happens….

    There will be no version for EE1, because there is Weever 😊

    As of migration process, this is possible if you know some SQL. exp_weever table has parent_id, root_id, level fields corresponding to comment_id. Those fields are added to exp_comments table now, so you will need to update comments table with data from weever table. But note that level 1 in Weever corresponds to level 0 in Threaded Comments. Let me know if you need further assistance on this.

    Thanks for the quick reply!  I will take a deeper look at the docs as well as brush up on what Weever is doing.  Then I’ll be sure to reach out to you 😊

    I tried to see the docs on your site but it says your hosting account has been suspended?

    Awesome!  I just purchased at Devotee and when I get further along I will reach out for some assistance with the migration.
