Is there a way to modify an existing topic reply to be a post-specific reply? I know I am guilty of it as well, but there are numerous times that I see someone clearly replying to a specific post but they mistakenly use the topic reply. It would be great to have the ability to fix the reply-type via…

hmm other than editing the post with a quote from the post being replied to or something like that, I can’t think of another way. One thing that might help is adding “to topic” to the footer topic button label, so it says “reply to topic” to make it more obvious and distinguish it from the post rep…

It would be nice to be able to relocate a reply, but the CSS from @Lilly works great! I had to review make CSS changes , and it was a snap.

I really like Lilly’s solution as well. After implementing it on my forum, it confuses me why it wouldn’t be the default setting for Discourse. Seeing the two reply buttons here on Meta just seems outdated now :slight_smile: Thank you!

[이미지] Jim Kleiber: Seeing the two reply buttons here on Meta just seems outdated now They mean different things. But yeah, tbh they should have different localised strings so they can be edited separately (imho) (I believe they are not separate but please correct me if they are distinct) CS…

[이미지] Robert: They mean different things. Ah, yeah, I know the one above is to reply directly to the post and the one at the bottom to the topic, I guess I meant the labeling just seemed confusing, not the repetition of the buttons themselves. I agree a PR would be better than CSS, and I’d l…

you as in “one”, not necessarily “you”, but there’s no stopping you!

:smiley: Side note and off topic, I think so many of the conflicts in my life come when someone says “you” to me and I either subconsciously assume they mean me or I pause and say, “When you say you, you mean me?” and sometimes they look completely confused. My buddy even once said, “You always do t…

I also implemented @Lilly ’s suggestion (thank you!), but I do still think there’s value in having a moderation solution to connect posts after they are created. I tried editing the post and adding a quote but it didn’t “link” the reply like I had hoped.

I think we have a Contribute > Feature topic on this: [이미지] Change "in reply to" when editing Feature Sometimes users accidentally reply to the wrong post. When that happens I often see them awkwardly apologize to the person they accidentally replied to, or de…

Adding CSS may not be the best solution — and my CSS may not be the best CSS — but I found that the following works to also add context to the reply-to-post (comment) button: nav.post-controls { .actions { button.reply { span.d-button-label:after { // Adding this content after R…
