Customization:

• You can adjust the font size and color of comment counts for Main section using the yellow highlighted regions
• To edit the font size and color of sub sections (nested replies) change orange highlighted regions
• lower-latin: Nested replies for first comment are counted in this order 1.a,  1.b,  1.c ... If you wish to display them in roman like 1.I, 1.II, 1.III, 1.IV... then replace lower-latin with Upper-roman,  if you wish to display them as integers then change it to decimal. Following are some other styles you can use for nested replies: lower-greek, circle, square, disc, lower-roman

       6.   Save your template and you are all done!
