    hello,
    I was using DMSGuestbook to my guestbook. But it will no longer maintained, so I try to replace it.
    Your Gwolle-GB plugin sounds good.

    But I have a request before adopting it: is it possible to display in the widget the name of the person who posted the comment?
    I think people like to have their name indicated, and it encourages to go post a new comment. (so not need the date of the post in the widget, just the poster’s name)

    Hi, currently that is not possible. I am considering changing the widget to have more options, just like the Settings-tab for the normal Reading section.
    Currently I am not sure what people would like to see there. Now it is only part of the content, but yes, the author would be good too. And the date and/or time as well.
    Maybe that is all that would be needed by most people, what do you think?

    In fact, it would be really good be able to choose (using checkboxes, eg) the fields as name / date … that should appear in the widget.

    Think you can provide that soon?

    Yup, checkboxes would be the way to go I think. It wouldn’t be a lot of work, but I would need some time. I can hope to do that this week, or max in 2 weeks.

    Even two weeks, that would be fine. Thank you for your reactivity.
    I feel that I really like this plugin.

    It’s really great! Exactly what I expected.
    Your job for this plugin deserves 5 stars. 🙂
