More Tweakings

Those of you who are good at spotting obvious things will notice the new “Recent Comments” listing to the right there. It’s a WordPress plugin which I knew existed, but didn’t bother with it until recently when I noticed that posts further down the page did receive the odd comment later on, which would go unseen by many. So, that’s that fixed.

If there are any particular features you’d like to see on this site - be it small intuitive features you see on other blogs, or a completely new aspect to the site, now’s your chance to let us know. Some ideas have been tossed around on the forums regarding such things, and everyone’s input would be most welcome either commented here or posted in there.

Also, everyone’s favourite forum nazi, Hardflip, has joined us here on the blog. So say hi!

    I did think of one thing, thought I don’t really know how feasible it’d be… the comments need to collapse under each other, like deadjournal, where if you reply to the main thing it’s just on the side, but if you reply to a reply, it’s filed under that… if you know what I mean?

    Maybe not even indented, but just made clear somehow, otherwise it’ll just be a giant mess of comment fondu.

    I don’t think WordPress supports that. The idea is, everyone’s comment is just in reply to the main post. Plus, I think the comment boxes are skinny enough as they are, really.

    Yeah, I thought so, too… but I just noticed that almost all replies after the first one or two are becoming replies to replies…
