    I am trying to make it so that when a user clicks “reply” to another reply under the topic, the reply form appears under the content that they want to reply to without refreshing. This website does it: http://highexistence.com/topic/friendship-is-an-illusion/

    I imagine this is some use of ajax as I can see that the link is loaded but the page doesn’t refresh itself, the reply form just appears.

    If it is possible, I just need a little guidance on how this can be achieved and I should be able to take it from there. Any help is appreciated!

    Hi Alayna,
    They are using bbPres ajax reply plugin.

    Here is the link to the plugin
    https://github.com/aliso/bbpress-ajax-replies

    Please do note that it will work if you have threaded comments enabled.

    Hope that helps.
    Regards
    Brajesh

    Hi Brajesh, it seems like that plugin gives the ajax functionality to the reply submit button. When you create a new reply, you click submit and it adds the reply without having to refresh the page. This is a great feature (I’ll probably add it too) but unfortunately not exactly what I’m looking for.

    I think the reply form toggle is somewhere in a js file on their page. I tried taking a look at the events but can’t seem to pinpoint where it is coming from…

    Hi Brajesh,

    Just an update: with your guidance, I was able to hire a developer to complete the task as it seemed to require more than I was able to do. Thank you very much for your help once again. 🙂

    You can mark this as resolved!

    Hi. I’m looking for the exact same functionality as Alayna, and am wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction. Unable to hire a developer, but am willing to roll up my sleeves and do some customizing if possible. Just not sure where to start. Any help would be much appreciated.
