Once comments in a conversation have been addressed, hover over the parent comment and click to mark the conversation as resolved.
Resolving comments can be reverted by clicking Undo in the confirmation message or by selecting after hovering over the comment.
Resolved comments disappear from the list, unless the option to show resolved comments has been enabled through the button. The user who resolved a comment will see a green checkmark next to the relevant comment. All resolved comments stay in the chronological order.
Note
Users can resolve only their own comments. Other users will still display resolved comments as regular comments.

By default, comments are sorted by newest first. Click the button at the top right to display oldest comments first.
