Hi,

Thanks for creating and sharing this plugin

I think this is an awsome plugin and is exactly what I needed but I was wondering is there anyway to include the author info, and post info etc in the featured post, on mine I just have the title and the excerpt, but I would like it to display (posted in, by.. etc.)

I’ve tried adding those calls to the plugin but it didint seem to like it..

Many Thanks

Martin

I’ve been looking for this plugin too. Just found it on your site. I had been creating “Featured posts” manually with html in a widget because most of the plugins for do it seemed just about as complicated to use. Installing it now.

I’m not using the top commentator plugin, I’m using the built in WordPress widget that shows the recent comments.

As for why the plugin doesn’t work for you, I downloaded it to see what was going on. The only thing I can see what is happening is something may be wrong with your settings. You can set it to expire or reset at a certain period. Maybe you have it set to expire too early? I tried it out on k2 RC4 so I don’t think it is the theme.

Other than that, I would try to contact webgrrrl to see if she knows anything.

Scratchback brave? Maybe If someone tries something too naughty I’ll just have to delete it.

Hi
Thought it was time I popped over to say Hi from Brians site.

Have signed up to your emails, so only just starting to trowl through your stuff.

I do have a question that you may be able to point me in the right direction of: I am having terrible issues getting these Top Commentator Plugins to work on my 2.3.1 running K2 theme. I believe I have tried most of the versions going and they pretty much all don’t work, the title shows up in the sidebar but that’s it. No lists of commentators. Just wondered if you had any ideas or suggestions? I know that’s a pretty broad request, but you never know.

See you and Brian have it and it’s ONE plugin that I would really like to have.

BTW: See you don’t filter the ScratchBack traffic, awfully brave of you!!! :0)

Look forward to reading more on your site.

Regards

Graham Smith

I also manually made one which I still use
but don’t know how to make it a plugin

I might give it a shot on my upcoming redesign.

I tried to create something like this manually. I didn’t know there’s a way to do this in an easier way.

Awesome!

I’ll install it this weekend and give it a go. Thanks for the heads up!
