When there are many replies inside a topic, it will be hard to know which position of reply post for reference .

Now the reply number is shown when searching , but it doesn’t show up in the topic flow.

I think it should be better to allow admin to have an option to turn on showing each reply numbers beneath the bottom or the sides in each reply.
