Comment tree

Comments are arranged in a tree structure

The term comment tree, also called comment thread, means that comments are organized in a tree structure, so that comments can have children — which we call replies.

For example:

root comment A
  +-- child comment A1
  +-- child comment A2

root comment B
  +-- child comment B1
        +-- child comment B11
  +-- child comment B2
        +- child comment B21
        +- child comment B22
        ...

Every child comment can, in turn, also have children (replies), and so on.

Every domain page has an own comment tree.
