   Dear all,

   I searched the Forum and Google but could not find a solution to what I am looking for:

   I want to display the last 5 posts that were commented on. Not the last 5 comments, the last 5 posts that people commented on. That way the same post would not show up twice if two people commented on the same post within the last 5 comments.

   In addition I'd like to show the name of the commenter and the comment count. I guess that's the smaller problem, but does anybody know how I can display the last 5 posts that were commented on?

   Any help would be highly appreciated.

   Thanks a lot,
   Martin

   Just installed this plugin:
   http://coffee2code.com/wp-plugins/customizable-post-listings/
   http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/customizable-post-listings/

   Put this in theme's sidebar.php:
   

   <?php
   if(function_exists('c2c_get_recently_commented')) {
   c2c_get_recently_commented();
   }
   ?>

   Perfect! Thanks a lot!

   I actually used the following code in order to not display the time of the comment but the commenters name in addition.

   <?php
   c2c_get_recently_commented(5, "<li>%comments_URL%<br />%comments_fancy%<br />%last_commenter%</li>");
   ?>
