Plugin: mg_recent_comments
The plugin <txp:mg_recent_comments />
makes a few small changes to the stock recent_comments
tag offered in Textpattern. The link is given a title and the commentor’s name appears.
<txp:mg_recent_comments />
Attributes
This plugin takes the same attributes as the standard recent_comments
tag, which can be found here. The only changes this plugin makes are to the appearance of the link and the title of the link.
Examples
<txp:mg_recent_comments wraptag="ul" break="li" limit="3" class="comments-list" />
The above produces a ul of links like this, with the class “comments-list”:
Notes on Usage
This plugin behaves exactly as the stock <txp:recent_comments />
tag. It’s only change is to the look of the output, and the addition of a title attribute stating the commentor’s name.
