Re: jnm_recent_comments_unique
Wow! You´ve read my mind! Thought about a plugin like this yesterday =)
Will try it and report back…
Edit: Question:
Can I choose to just display the latest commentators? Name but not the article name…

Re: jnm_recent_comments_unique
So, the last commenters with link to the comment and with repeated articles? I mean can Mattias and James be commenters of article1 and Robin of article2?
P.S. Is it commenter or commentator in english?

Re: jnm_recent_comments_unique
I remember looking for just this sort of thing a few months ago. This should come in very handy.

Yes :) Just the name of the person who posted the last comment. Is it possible?
My english is far from perfect so I don´t blame you…

Re: jnm_recent_comments_unique
Thanks for this plugin. It was a snap to setup.
You may want to add a functionality to restrict the returned commented articles by section(s). I could see that being very useful.
