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. #### Disclaimer This plugin is released under the [GPL licence](http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html).

All comments with parent doesn’t necessary need that their are read before child comment comprehension. So displaying Parent Comment directly may break UX. Anyway good work.
