Overview

bbPress Threaded Replies is based on comment-display functions from WordPress
and topic-display functions from bbPress. Settings can be adjusted on the bbPress
Forums options page of WordPress. bbPress running as a WordPress plugin is required.

bbPress Threaded Replies is incompatible with the Fancy Editor; enabling threading will
automatically disable the Fancy Editor.

The plugin checks first in the stylesheet and template directories before reverting
to the default plugin templates.
