How To Enable Threaded Comments on Blogger / Blogspot

Blogger Threaded Comments. Finally Blogger has launched new threaded comments. Threaded commenting should make it easier for you to respond to individual comments. Blogger threaded comment system is only two levels deep, meaning you can only reply to original comments, and not to comment replies . But I guess it’s a good start. Let's wait for new update from Blogger.


How To Enable Threaded Comments on Blogger / Blogspot

As mentioned on Blogger buzz official site, you have to setup your blog. “Blog Feed” set to “Full”, and are using “Embedded” comments, then you’re ready to start a discussion with your readers.

4. Go to Settings > Site Feed

STILL NOT GETTING THREADED COMMENTS?

If sou still not getting threaded comments, let's two alternative method for Standard Templates and Custumized Templates.

Standard Templates


1. Go to Design > Edit HTML 
2. Click on Revert widget templates to default link

You can do this step for Costumized Templates, but this will Discard the all Changes Widget and revert to Default.

Custumized Templates

1. Go to Template > Edit HTML
2. Click on Expand Widget Templates check box
3. Find the Following code
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;static_page&quot;'>
<b:include data='post' name='comments'/>
</b:if>
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'>
<b:include data='post' name='comments'/>
</b:if>
4. You will get two results. Replace both code with following code
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;static_page&quot;'>
<b:if cond='data:post.showThreadedComments'>
<b:include data='post' name='threaded_comments'/>
<b:else/>
b:include data='post' name='comments'/>
</b:if>
</b:if>
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'>
<b:if cond='data:post.showThreadedComments'>
<b:include data='post' name='threaded_comments'/>
<b:else/>
<b:include data='post' name='comments'/>
</b:if>
</b:if>
5. Save the Template!
