Hello, I have a custom post type named 'listings', with different custome fields. each listing has a view page. I would like to have on each 'listing' page, a comments timeline (like in facebook page), using the comments cell or other ideas if you have, can you please help me implement the following features if possible

1. users can reply on comments, and also in a nested form.
2. users can insert images, video, or embbed media with urls. (even if one of them is possible it would be great).
3. I would like the comments to display in a certain location on the page and not in the buttom like WP comments. (i could do it with views).
4. I would like the comments to upload in a lazy load 10 comments each time, with a read more button or by scroll.
5. a search box in the current listing comments.
6. notify the user when his comment was replied. (don't know if it possible...).
7. show meta info, like date, hour, user name and image.

could you give me some general directions for doing that?

Thanks

Dear shirly,

I suggest you use wordpress build-in comment feature.

1) When you create/edit a custom post type with Types plugin, in section "Sections to display when editing ", enable the option "Comments".
2) use Comment cell of Layout plugin to put the comment section into where you want
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/comments-cell/
3) Use other plugins to enable "insert images, video, or embbed media with urls", for example:
