The discussion “Load parent post?” revolves around a feature that allows users to see who a user replied to and load the original post for reference. alltiagocom inquires about this feature, providing images as examples. ondrej explains that it is a core feature of Discourse, which appears when replying to a post using the <kbd>Reply</kbd> button, but only if there are other replies in between. alltiagocom confirms that they were using the post’s Reply button and tested the feature, which is working as expected. ondrej reaffirms this understanding, noting that the feature appears when there are other replies between the original post and the reply.
On the Keyboard Maestro forum they have a nice feature where I can see who a user replied to and I can load the original post for reference. It just makes everything easier to follow:
Is this a core feature, plugin, component?

But on my new installation, it doesn’t.
This is a core feature. It won’t appear if you reply to my post below as its a follow on to my post but if you or someone else decided to reply to this post 7 [1] replies after, it would show. Also, you have to use the Reply button on a post to do this. Not reply to topic.

Thanks for clarifying.
Yes, I was using the post’s Reply button, not the blue Reply button at the bottom of the topic.
So basically if it’s a reply right below the original post, it won’t show. Only if there’s other replies in between.
I just tested it and it’s working. Much appreciated 
Exactly
