Note:

Beginning with 12c (12.2.1.3), Oracle WebCenter Portal has deprecated support for Jive features (announcements and discussions). If you are upgrading from a prior release, these features remain available only to support your existing portals that use announcements and discussions. Do not include these features in new portals. 

This page provides a view of the detailed replies to a given discussion forum topic. Additionally, it provides controls for replying to, watching, editing, and deleting the displayed topic. More
