How to add "Reply" button or Threaded comments to blogger comment

I like to read blogs and leave comments. Some of the blogger blogs I visit have the "Reply" button so that the author of the blog can add reply to the comments. 
It is also good to add threaded comments. Like, I can add a reply to the comment on the post.
But, I couldn't find that option easily on this blog. So, after doing a lot of search, and doing the unsuccessful editing of the blog code in the "layout" section, I found this easy method here
So, as suggested, I went to the Dashboard. You know, the place you can see on the left side things like "Overview", "posts", "pages", etc.?
The last one there is "Settings" with a picture of a wrench.
Click there.
Now you can see under the :settings" some words like "Basic", "Posts and comments" etc.
Click on "posts and comments.
Now, you can see, "Posts" and you can make changes to "Show at most" etc about the posts. But, I want you to go down to see "comments" 
Below that, you can see "comment Location" Right to that there is a box, and select "Embedded" there.Now, find the button that says, "Save Settings" on the upper right corner.
Now, again, under "settings" all way left side bottom, you can see "Other" Select that one.
Now, you can see "Allow Blog feed  ? " Click on the box there and select "Full"
Again "Save Settings".
You are all done.
Check one of your previous posts with comments on it to see how it is working.

Do you know, threaded comments are great to create conversation with your readers?

  1. I rarely go back to see if the blog owner has replied to my comments. I try to visit 100% of the posts for PPF and that doesn't leave room for two visits per blog. I expect people to leave me a comment and they can reply there if they like.

    1. Sometimes, you may have a question to the blog owner, especially if it is a DIY project. It is nice to have that feature in the blog.
      Thanks Faye, for visiting and commenting.
