Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →

WP PlugIndex currently records Show Parent Comment version 0.2.1 as active, updated 10y ago and tested up to WordPress 4.3.

Overview

About this plugin

When moderating comments in the WordPress Admin area, it is useful to be able to see the parent comment if one exists.

How To Use It

You don’t need to do anything. Simply activate it and the parent comment will appear for comments that have one.

Compatibility

  • This plugin requires WordPress 4.2 or above (it probably works on older versions, but I haven’t tested it and you really should be on the latest version!).
  • I am not currently aware of any compatibility issues with any other WordPress plugins.

Support

The free version of this plugin is officially not supported, but if you leave a comment on the plugin’s support forum, I’ll try to help if I can.

“Tested up to” is directory metadata supplied by the plugin author. WP PlugIndex does not turn an older declaration into a claim that the plugin is incompatible.
