Reply, edit, and create from one list
Reply
Where: Row action Reply (or similar) on a comment row.
What happens: A modal (or drawer) opens with the original comment context and a reply form. You write your reply, optionally use AI assistance (see AI-assisted reply), then Save or Submit. The new comment is created as a reply to the selected comment. The modal closes and the grid may refresh so the reply appears (e.g. in a thread or in the list).
Edit
Where: Row action Edit on a comment row.
What happens: An edit modal opens with the comment's current content, author, date, status, and post. Change any of these, then Save. The comment is updated via the API; the modal closes and the grid updates. You never leave the Comments page.
Create comment
Where: Button Create comment or "Add comment" (often in the page header).
What happens: A create modal opens. You select the post (e.g. via a post selector/search), then enter content, author, and status. Optionally use AI to draft the text. Save creates the comment and closes the modal; the grid refreshes. So you can add an official reply or comment from the admin without using the front end.
Benefit: Reply, edit, and create from one list. No opening each post.
