The custom author order interface under settings requires WordPress 2.6 or higher but the other features work just fine on WordPress 2.5. This is due to the inavailability of the jQuery library on pre-2.6 versions.

'Show as dropdown' overrides 'Show as ordered list'. This may seem counter-intuitive but admin interface needs a bit of cleanup. I'll soon make it simpler to use.

Tips

• To improve performance by reducing the number of full table scans in the database, create an index on the column "knr_author_order" in the table "(wp_prefix)users".
• You can style the author list with CSS by defining the CSS classes in the markup options of the widget. Using a text-align left for the list items with a float right for the post count aligns the post count of all the items in the list vertically. UL/OL with CSS is so much more flexible than HTML tables!! :-)
