 * After installing P2 theme….which I absolutely love now, I have never been able
   to get the Threaded-Reply to work. A user can only click on “reply” at the top
   of a post. But clicking on “reply” on an individual comment, does not work. Nothing
   happens.
 * Here is what the link is trying to do…(i placed an example url in place of my
   sites.)
 * `<a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="http://example.com/postid#
   respond" onclick="return addComment.moveForm(&quot;comment-9353&quot;, &quot;
   9353&quot;, &quot;respond&quot;, &quot;3031&quot;)">Reply</a>`

 * Here is the code for the “reply” button at the top of each post:
 * `<a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="http://example.com/postid#
   respond" onclick="return addComment.moveForm(&quot;prologue-3083&quot;, &quot;
   0&quot;, &quot;respond&quot;, &quot;3083&quot;)">Reply</a>`
 * Here is the same post with a reply on individual comments:
 * `<a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="http://example.com/postid#
   respond" onclick="return addComment.moveForm(&quot;comment-9356&quot;, &quot;
   9356&quot;, &quot;respond&quot;, &quot;3083&quot;)">Reply</a>`

 * Looks like the main difference is “prologue” vs “comment” in the onClick=function.

 * Is there really, nobody having this same issue, or can direct me in a better 
   place to find answers?

 * Clicking on “reply” on an individual comment appears to work in p2 v1.2.2.
 * Other than that I can’t really help.

 * If you are using the latest version of P2 and the latest stable version of WordPress
   the comment reply functionality should work out of the box.
 * If you load your site in Firebug with Console enabled do you get any JS errors?
   My guess is a plugin is interfering with the theme JS or something like that.
   As with all WP debugging it’s a good idea to disable plugins and make sure you
   don’t have P2 modifications.

 * Thank you for the response guys. I have deactivated all plugins and re-installed
   P2 and still have problems. I opened up Firebug console and get zero errors when
   loading site. Its almost as if, it just times out.
 * Im at a loss here, because I am usually pretty good and troubleshooting. And 
   to have the reply button work at the top of the post, but not on individual comments,
   is strange. I have tested this on all major browsers and OS’s.

 * In your WP general settings, under Discussion, what’s your setting for “Enable
   threaded (nested) comments”?

 * Enabled (nested) comments up to 10 levels deep—is check marked yes.
 * Note Lance, I just had a few users try nesting and hitting reply. This seems 
   to be a very random issue. I posted, then replied to my own in a nested fashion,
   but once I reloaded the page, I could no longer reply anywhere in that thread.
   Then another user was able to reply on one thread, but no others.
 * He was on a PC and Firefox, I am on a Mac and Safari. The only thing that is 
   the same is the randomness.
 * So strange. I was hoping to get this fixed, but being such a strange random issue,
   I know its not easy to replicate and figure out.
 * Thanks for your help though Lance.
 * Regards,
 * Greg

 * Btw…my site, if you would like to see the randomness is my personal family blog
   so ignore the content, if you will, lol…but the top most post is where I was 
   testing.
