 * The unordered list should probably look like this:
    `<ul class="point"> <?php
   c2c_get_recent_posts (5, "<li>%post_date%: %post_URL%<br />%post_excerpt</li>",'
   11 12 13 14', 'date', 'DESC', 1); ?> </ul>

 * That is the definition of the function, not the code to insert into your site
   templates. Look at the examples section of the plugin’s page, [http://www.coffee2code.com/archives/2004/08/27/plugin-customizable-post-listings/#examples](http://www.coffee2code.com/archives/2004/08/27/plugin-customizable-post-listings/#examples)
 * What you’d be putting into your sidebar.php would be closer to:
 * `<ul>Recently Commented
    <?php c2c_get_recently_commented(); ?> </ul>
 * The instructions were originally written for WP 1.2, but I’ve just updated it
   to mention sidebar.php instead.

 * [21 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-plugin/#post-188180)
 * Did you want it by recently commented posts or by recent comments? (The former
   means that each post will only be listed once with the most recent commenter 
   next to it.) The two versions would look like this:
 * Recently Commented
    Sample Post Title by: Commenter4 Another Post by: Commenter2
   Yet Another by: Commenter1
 * Recent Comments
    Sample Post Title by: Commenter4 Sample Post Title by: Commenter3
   Another Post by: Commenter2
 * (In both examples, Commenter4 made the most recent comment and Commenter3 the
   next most recent comment. Notice how recently commented doesn’t list Sample Post
   Title twice.)

 * Is the PostName and PostAuthor above to be used when listing recent comments?
   Or were you interested in post listings all along and not anything related to
   comments? Your description so far is too vague to know how you want PostName 
   and PostAuthor used.

 * Assuming you are looking to do a listing of recent comments, you could use the
   Customizable Comment Listings plugin, as mentioned here: [http://wordpress.org/support/topic.php?id=29195](http://wordpress.org/support/topic.php?id=29195)

 * Oops, the note about the directory in the plugin’s description wasn’t updated
   to reflect a change with the latest release. The image directory the plugin uses
   by default is `wp-content/images`. You can use `wp-images` if you like, you would
   just need to specify the appropriate argument.

 * Add this to your function:
    `global $id;`
 * `$id` is the post ID.
 * Likewise you can also do:
    `global $post; $id = $post->ID;

 * The plugin’s site has some examples that should aid you in your usage (or if 
   not, please indicate how they are unclear!). For instance, to do what you seem
   to want done above, you would use:
    `<?php echo c2c_get_custom('sqft', '', 'Sq.
   Ft. |'); ?>`
 * Notice you have to quote the first argument, and you don’t specify argument by
   doing something like $before=.

 * Did you use capital URL in `%post_URL%`? That is different than `%post_url%`.
   Case matters.

 * What exactly do you want to appear in your recent posts listing? Just the post
   titles linked to the post’s permalink page? If so, try this:
 * `<?php c2c_get_recent_posts(5, "<li>%post_URL%</li>"); ?>`

 * One of the benefits of the Customizable Post Listings plugin is that you can 
   customize what gets displayed and how it gets displayed. Have you tried defining
   a custom format for the output? (vheck out the later examples at the plugin’s
   homepage). Or explain exactly what you’d like to have show up.

 * The next version of the Customizable Post Listings plugin will allow you to easily
   indicate if you mean ‘publish’ (posts), ‘static’ (pages), and/or even ‘draft’.
   Hope to have it out in a day or two. The plugin already has it, just have to 
   bundle up some of the other newer things.

 * If you literally have this in your post: `<http://www.mactech.com>` then the 
   problem isn’t the plugin. The plugin doesn’t handle links wrapped with `<` and`
   >` like that because it looks like a tag, which is the same reason it isn’t appearing
   on your blog. Your browser doesn’t recognize the tag (obviously) so it isn’t 
   shown, but if you viewed the source for the page it should be there. There might’ve
   been some problems trying to throw `<` and `>` into the pattern search string
   that I used. I may look into it, but can’t say this is a situation the plugin
   will necessarily address.
