One of the most notable and important features of the London Commons is the threaded discussions of it's users. Some of these discussions can become very long and confusing. With replies the original post and replies to replies, it can be difficult to discern who is replying to whom and to follow flow of the conversation.

Comment Listing Options:

The following options are available:
Flat list - collapsed
Flat list - expanded
Threaded list - collapsed
Threaded list -expanded

"Flat List" means that all comments are displayed in the order they were posted (Oldest to newest by default but this can be set to display comments from newest to oldest, see below).

"Threaded list" means that Replies to the original post are displayed chronologically (Oldest to newest by default, but this can be set to display comments from newest to oldest. See below). Any replies to a previous comment will be displayed below (and indented from) the comment it is replying to. Think of a tree: the tree trunk is the original post, the limbs are comments replying to the original post, the branches are replies to the comments about the original post, twigs, leaves and so on... Replies to a given comment will also be displayed chronologically.

"Collapsed" means that only comment titles are displayed. Clicking on a Comment's title will bring you to the comment itself.

"Expanded" means that the full text of all comments are displayed to be read on the same page.
