What this screen helps with

The comments thread screen supports “Reply” while keeping thread and mentions in view. It should show the current state even when data is missing or access is restricted.

What to look for

  • Primary action: Reply
  • Main area: Thread brings the user to the relevant workflow
  • Related area: Mentions keeps nearby context accessible
  • Replies: 28 in the sample screen
  • Participants: 11 in the sample screen
  • Example 1: Original post
  • Example 2: Maya replied

States to consider

  • Default: Show the main workflow and its available next step
  • Loading: Preserve the page structure and explain what is still loading
  • Empty: Show that the current queue or filter has no matching conversations
  • Error: Keep draft replies and clearly mark send failures
  • Access: Show which actions require a role or permission
  • Success: Confirm the result after Reply and say what happens next

Where it fits

Thread → Mentions → Reply → Review result

UX choices to review

Keep the selected thread, sender, and next action visible

In this example, Original post is one of the records worth checking. Keep the sample data clearly separate from a live system.

Show ownership, priority, and reply state without hiding the conversation

Preserve a draft when the user switches threads or a send fails
