WordPress.org

Simple plugin to show/hide comment replies, rather than have them all listed. Also makes the code valid, since divs within list items are invalid HTML, for those of you that like valid code.

Features

This keeps most of the default wp_list_comments features. The only difference is that the child comments will have the added "<div class='children'>" added to it (ol and ul already have this class by default), but also have the div that provides the action to expand the replies.

Otherwise, you can use anything you would normally use with wp_list_comments - callbeack features, everything - it's all there, so you can re-style however you like.

This also works with pagination and level depths - if you set "3 comments per page" then 3 top-level comments will show and all replaies will display under it. if you have your depth level set to 5, then each level will have it's own show/hide link.
