Comments on pages or news items are displayed in one of two views:

  • Threaded: Shows the comments in a hierarchy of responses. Each reply to a comment is indented to indicate the relationships between the comments.
  • Flat: Displays all the comments in one single list and does not indicate the relationships between comments.

By default, comments are displayed in threaded mode. The Confluence administrator can enable or disable the threaded view for the entire Confluence site.

To enable or disable the threaded view,

  1. Go to the 'Administration Console' view. To do this:

    • Go to a page in the space and choose 'Administration' from the 'User' menu, which is labelled with your Confluence username. The 'Administration Console' view will open.
  2. Select 'General Configuration' in the left-hand panel.
  3. In the 'Feature Settings' section, click 'Edit'.
  4. Select 'On' beside 'Threaded Comments' to enable threaded mode.
    Select 'Off' to disable threaded mode and display all comments in flat mode.
  5. Click 'Save'.
