I have installed Recent Comments plugin and I am able to configure what data is displayed on the site via the Comments tab on the admin panel. However, when I go to the Excluded Categories tab, I do not see any categories listed (although I have 8).
a) Why are categories not listed?
b) Is there a way of overriding these settings when calling the get_recent_comments() function in the code? And, if so, what is the parameter I need to pass for these function?
