 * Hi
 * I’d like to be able to decide in which order the comment elements are displayed–
   like having the date appear first, then avatar + author, then the post title (
   as a link) followed by the comment itself.
 * Can that be done using a shortcode?
 * My aim is to diplay all comments on one page. I’d there also like to be able 
   to offer a filtering option + pagination.
 * Are these features you might consider in the future?

 * Hi there,
 * Thanks for asking about how to modify the output and especially for that option
   there is already a filter hook in the plugin core you can use and modify how 
   the content is rendered for each comment. Please have a look at
    – [decent_comments_comment_output](https://docs.itthinx.com/document/decent-comments/api/)
   filter hook.
 * Regarding filters for comments this is something we could keep in mind either
   for the free or more suitably for a premium version of the plugin, since it requires
   an extensive implementation for the filters and their actions.
 * Kind regards,
    George
