There is a new post I cannot reply to

I am unable to reply to a post by Don Williams. See the url below thanks. Changing datasources dynamically

I thought I was supposed to be able to reply directly to someone helping me out. There is no "Reply" link, only a "Comment on this question". I want to be able to give Don feedback from his post. Thanks

The reply option is a bit subtle and you might have missed it - it is named Comment on this answer:

Are you able to see it? If not, please share screenshots of what is displayed in your browser after logging in.

Hi Veselina, thanks for the reply. I was able to see the "comment on this answer" button. But under what conditions does the reply come up? thanks

Reply option is shown, when you have a comment and you wish to notify the person, who commented.

Let me recapitulate:

• when you place a direct comment to a question - you have Comment on this question as a link.

• when you wish to create an answer - you use the blue Answer button;

• when you wish to respond directly to an answer - you use Comment on this answer as a link;

• when you wish to comment on a comment - you have Reply as a link.

Do not worry, this is confusing for many members at first, but you will get used to it.

If Veselina's answer solved your question, please don't forget to "accept" it as correct, and then close the question. 🙂
