Comments in Confluence are displayed in one of two views which is configured globally by a site administrator:
- Threaded - this view shows the comments in a hierarchy of responses. Each subsequent reply to a comment is indented to indicate the relationships between the comments. See screenshot 1.
- Flat - this view displays all the comments in one single list and does not indicate the relationships between comments.
Confluence also allows you to 'show' or 'hide' comments on a page.
- Show
- the page's comments are visible below its contents when you view the page.
- a comments box at the bottom of the page allows you to post a new comment.
- Hide
- the page's comments are hidden when you view the page. A link at the bottom of the page tells you if the page has comments. Clicking this link will display the comments. See screenshot 2.
- to post a new comment, click on 'Add a new comment'.

 | Note
Confluence defaults the view to 'Show' or 'Hide' comments based on what your preference was on your last visit to the site. |
