This plug-in provides a configurable widget to display recent comments with comment author avatars.
I’m quite pleased with the plug-in, I hope you are too. ![]()

Thanks!

<ul>or<table>) has the id recentcomments (use CSS.recentcomments). - List items (i.e.
<li>) have the class recentcomments (use CSS#recentcomments).
- The container (i.e.
