I'm looking for a social component that behaves more or less like Facebook. Someone posts, someone else can comment, etc. Facebook does this in-line; no need to switch to a brand new screen. Does EasySocial have this feature? I looked at the demo and it wasn't obvious.

More info: the point of this is to have a component where someone can post, "I need someone to help me with a plumbing problem" and others can respond with suggestions, offers of assistance, etc. Each initial post becomes a topic that people respond to.
Hey Bill,

Thanks for interesting on our EasySocial component.

May i know what do you mean by "Facebook does this in-line; no need to switch to a brand new screen."?

If i understand correctly, if someone want to ask something for help, they can able to submit their post through the story panel (screenshot : http://take.ms/zp6Fc), so those registered user on your site, can see this stream item on the user dashboard page.

In Facebook, a user can make an entry on their news feed ("I need help with a plumbing problem") and others can post comments in reply. This is all shown in-line; the user does not have to switch to a new screen. That's not quite what your screenshot shows. Just look at your own Facebook newsfeed and you'll see what I mean. I've also added a screenshot.

Other similar modules I've seen require each new posting to be on a new screen, which is where replies are also seen. This is awkward.

I think i got your meaning now, are you referring the reply comment section? (screenshot : https://monosnap.com/file/pGfgwRdtuDf9ZaKgUT7QQ42xDfV7Le )

If yes, unfortunately that is not possible to achieve this at this point of time in EasySocial.
