Hello,  
I’m looking for a plugin, theme-component or some other way which I can turn the post to be like in StackOverflow. I mean that the post will contain the main answers and you can write a short comment to the answer. I would like to have the following structure:

```plaintext
***Question***
 ***Answer 1***
     ***Comment on Answer 1***
     ***Comment on Answer 1***
 ***Answer 2***
     ***Comment on Answer 2***

```

The default Discourse structure works as:

```plaintext
***Question***
 ***Comment 1 - Could be answer***
 ***Comment 2 - Could be answer***
 ***Comment 3 - Could be answer***

```

Hope I described my question properly.  
Thank you.

I tested this plugin a year ago, but since then there have been a lot of changes, and I think for the better. You can try it yourself to find out if this plugin is right for you or not.
