This is a repost from: [Could we get the link to post replies in mobile view? - #12 by Ellibereth](https://meta.discourse.org/t/could-we-get-the-link-to-post-replies-in-mobile-view/115791/12), but it probably belongs here in #Development and not in that topic.

I’m trying to modify the “toggleReplyAbove” action, to show a modal of the replied-to-post on mobile instead of jumping to the post (why we’re doing this is described in the above topic).

It looks to be in the post widget, but if I use the following code to try and replace the action I don’t see any effect - nothing is printed to console and it behaves as normal:

```plaintext
api.attachWidgetAction('post', 'toggleReplyAbove', () => {
    console.log('toggle triggered');
  });

```

In the post widget code, it looks like the toggleReplyAbove function is defined inside the created widget `post-article` , but that doesn’t seem to be modifiable with attachWidgetAction since the following code trying to modify that widget results in the error `Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'class' of undefined` :

```plaintext
api.attachWidgetAction('post-article', 'toggleReplyAbove', () => {
    console.log('toggle triggered');
  });

```

I’m able to overwrite the “like” action on post-menu fine as described here [Updating Discourse Plugins, taking the first step - #9 by eviltrout](https://meta.discourse.org/t/updating-discourse-plugins-taking-the-first-step/41241/9). Where should I be attaching the widget action to overwrite the toggleReplyAbove action?
