   I want to create a "Top Content" page that has most e-mailed posts, most viewed posts, most commented posts and most recent comments. I want to use the "Get-Recent-Comments" plugin to provide the most recent comments component. However, it doesn't seem to work when I place it outside of the Sidebar. Any idea why?

   I figured it out. I needed to install and turn-on runPHP to execute the PHP script within a Page. But, that also necessitated re-writing the installation script so that all the PHP logic happened within one PHP instance:

   <?php
   if (function_exists('get_recent_comments')) {
   print "<h2>";
   _e('Recent Comments:');
   print "</h2>

   ";
   get_recent_comments();
   print "

   ";
   }

   if (function_exists('get_recent_trackbacks')) {
   print "<h2>";
   _e('Recent Trackbacks:');
   print "</h2>

   ";
   get_recent_trackbacks();
   print "

   ";
   }
   ?>

   Works great. Exactly like I wanted.

   Great idea, but I don't know to put install this code. Let's say I am using non-widget theme, so where do I have to install this?
