Recent Comments Feature

I’ve added a new feature to the front page that shows the most recent comments on the site.  You can see it to the right of this entry.  It’s a script extra for pMachine that I found at pMachine Hacks and Add-ons Forum.  It was a snap to setup.

I had this on my site too, but I removed it because url’s in comments (like the one above) breaks your layout (well, my layout anyway wink

Hmm… seems like the script cuts a part of the url on your frontpage. Would they have fixed this bug?

What are you talking about? What URL on my frontpage?

Ahhh… I see what you mean. In the recent comments section on the home page, the URL is cut short. That’s not a bug, that’s a feature. I limited the maximum length of any word (or URL) to 30 characters. I did it so it wouldn’t break my layout, as you mentioned.
