It is a Recent Comments Widget. You can install it to your Blog with one mouseclick. You can customize it without any template-hacking. It is completely flexible. And it is free!
It is based on the new JSON-feeds that are available from Blogger. That means you can have as many comments in your sidebar as you wish, you can have long or short summaries, and you can choose to add the date and the posttitle to the comment-summary as well. Now THAT's what we call flexibility.
I was inspired to create this widget by Ramani and Hoctro, who implemented a JSON-based Recent Comments widget. But I still missed date and posttitle options, things I recently hacked with in my own way. So I took up where Ramani stopped, and created this widget that you can see now in my sidebar.
How to Install the Widget
Go to the Widgets & Downloads Page and click the Install Recent Comments button.
This will bring up a pop-up window in which you can customize the widget settings, before adding it to your blog.
Replace 'beautifulbeta' with the name of your own blog.
Set the number of recent posts you want to show (default = 5).
If you want the post date to be displayed, check the box (default = checked).
If you want a post summary to be displayed, check the other box (default = checked), and enter the number of characters of the postsummary that you want to display (default = 100).
If you select standard styling, a predefined styling will be used. If you select custom css, you can define your own styling using the classes bbrecpost, bbrecpostsum and bbwidgetfooter.
Now click the 'Customize' button, or click 'Reset' to return to the default values. If you are satisfied with the settings, click 'Add Widget To My Blog'. This will bring up the Blogger-screen that lets you select your Blog to install the widget to. Click the blue 'Add' button to add the widget to your blog.

4 New Gadgets from Blogger Buster
4 days ago
This is what people say:
Hans! I try to nstall it on mine, and it works! This is as close to automatic downloading as it gets!
But there's two points I like to point out, hope you don't mind:
1. On step #1, rather than let the newbie user cut-and-paste the script line, have him/her have a choice to download the file to his own place, or better yet, somehow embed it in your on-click button as well. As a user, I wouln'd want to point to any other site's code, not knowing at a later time it might work or not, or worse, malicious code. That's why you see I rarely point a script line to my hoctroarticles.googlepages.com webspace.
#2. Rather than put down your blog to claim credit for the custom widget, say sth like "get your own" or sth like that in small text, just like the "Flickr daily zeitgest". The blog owner will fell more at ease to install.
Hope you don't mind my comments, strictly from the user's viewpoint.
Other than that, congratulations!!! You make it so easy to install now.
Hans, I see you have an icon for your site (blue and white). Maybe it is a good alternative to the text line on my comment #2.
I might have to start doing that too for my next one-click hack. We hackers can sort of have an agreement on how best to approach this.
Cheers,
Thanks Hans. This widget has the best of all worlds and is truly customizable. It is also very easy to install. I agree with Hoctro on the credits part. And you might want to change the credit URL in there to this post's URL as(unlike the Flickr widget) user cannot just install the widget and have it working. They need to have the script as well.
http://home.planet.nl/~hansoosting/downloads/beautifulbeta.js
this is blocked by our websense. can you please host it elsewhere?
@drkatte: I can't host it elsewhere, but you could leave your email address so that I can send the file to you
I know what you mean about time restrictions. I don't seem to have enough hours in a day. Seems we all are feeling the crunch.
Love this hack. Installed in last night and it worked fine. This morning it is gone. Is the host site down? Would it be possible for me to host the javascript on my own host?
Anyway, lovely hack.
@Annie: Hi Annie, good to hear from you. BTW: I love your new blog too! Maybe there was a bad connection, or maybe I was tampering a little with the code (there was a minor bug that I repaired). It should be working now, but feel free to download the code and host it from your own ISP.
Hi Hans! Been busy trying to keep up with BlogU and get Buttermilk Clouds up to snuff. Right now I'm struggling with some silly things...like trying to get some sidebar items to show on my post page and have the post page comment section more 'user friendly'. No matter what I try, it comes up looking crazy. Sidebars sticking out, weird font...just craziness.
The recent comments is working again. Who knows what happened. I would host the script on my web host site, but I don't actually know how to get the script. I'm feeling pretty brain dead right now.
Glad you like my new blog. It still has some work to do...but it is fun.
Your blog is such a comfort to me. I read other blogs and all their nonsense, then come and read your straight forward posts and it makes me happy.
Hans! How are you. I use this in my blog, but I change a bit the format. I have a question very important...
How can I write HTML in a post like you do? Thanks very much.
@Googlemaniaco: replace every < with < and replace every > with >
Don't work :(
@Googlemaniaco: yes that works. If it does not work you probably missed a < or > somewhere. Check it carefully, try it out with a simple example, one tag such as <head> I use the same trick here in this comment.
Hi Hans!
I am bit lost with this hack!
"Step 2: Click the Add to Blog-button
This will bring you to the Blogger-screen that lets you select your Blog to install the widget to. Click 'Learn more' to read this post. Click 'Edit' to customize the widget."
Where to where?
@binaari: the Add to blog-button is under the widget in my sidebar. Click it. This will bring up a Blogger popup window. In this popup you select your Blog from a drop-down list. In this pop-up is also a "Learn more" link (if you click it you can read instructions abou this widget), and an "Edit" link. If you click Edit you can change the settings of the widget. Just try it, it is easy
Hans,
You are constantly making my hacks better! Nice work.
I considered making it one-click but i didn't have enough time before leaving for my thanksgiving holiday trip. But, here you have done it already!!
@Ramani: you teach well, so it gives me a flying start to build on the work you have done.
Hans, just one comment on the post title in this widget. As you are deriving the title from the URL, some words might be missing if the original title was long. I had derived the title like this for my related posts hack and I noticed that URL doesn't always encode all the words of the title.
Hans, I have used this in my blog and announced it to my readers as well. As this is a joint work by both of us, would you mind adding credit to Hackosphere as well? (in the "widget by" portion)
Hans, I had been using all your hacks and the Underwater as the base template but the Recents Comments Widget just doen't run on my template. Would you please give me some hand? Anyone else who has time to check it out?
Thanks in advance!
@Ramani: I noticed that the post title is no exactly the same as the linkname. I checked the json-feed contents, and it offers no posttitle. You can get the post-id from the feed.entry.id object, but I have not come up with a trick to derive the posttitle fom the post-id.
An yes, I will give you credits as well, but I am thinking of removing the credits-footer from the sidebar, and bringing the widget-buttons to a downloads/widgets page.
@tonnet: check if you added the javascript to your blog template. Also check that your blog creates comments feeds (settings - feeds). Customize the widget so that it calls your blog's feed and not mine. And make sure that your browser allows script execution.
Is there any way to modify it so that if the post is a picture or video it skips the code and goes right to the more link?sa
Also, would I be able to not show the recent posts widget on the main page? I don't need it there as much.
Hello HANS!!
I have installed the RECENT POSTS Widget and it works great!! BUT the recent COMMENTS one does nothing.
When I put my URL it comes with a blank page!!
http://themisfitishere.blogspot.com/feeds/comments/default?alt=json-in-script&callback=showrecentcomments
Can you help me PLEASE!!
Thanks!!
@Deb: I tested this on my testblog. If your post starts with a picture, the picture is not displayed in the post summary, but the text after the picture is displayed. If the post contains only a picture, no post summary is displayed. The More link is only displayed if the post length exceeds the numchar parameter (default 100, to be customized by you).
If you want to display the widget only on specific pages (e.g. itempage only), take a look at Vivek Shangi's tech blog to see how you can hack into a widget to achieve this.
@themisfitishere: did you add the javascript library to your blog template? did you make no typing errors in the feed-url? did you set your blog to publish feeds? and did you check the security-settings of your browser (it should enable scripts).
Thank you HANS for getting back to me!!
I've got the widget working IN 2 of my OTHER blogs but this one just wont work.
The POST Widget one works on this this blog but the COMMENTS one still fails :(
If you put this URL into your browser
http://themisfitishere.blogspot.com/feeds/comments/default?alt=json-in-script&callback=showrecentcomments
and press ENTER should it display anything on the screen?
@Misfit: I checked your feeds, and it seems your blog does not have a comment-feed. I can retrieve your posts-feed, but not your commens-feed. Check your blog's feed setting. Go to Settings - Site Feeds, switch to Advanced Mode, and set comments feed to Full.
Hans: Somehow this is not working for me.
Hans: Its working fine now and thank you:-))
Thanks Hans. I've checked ALL the feed settings and they are ALL set to full!!
I've sent BLOGGER SUPPORT an email to see if they can HELP!!
Thank you again!!
@priya: glad you could solve it!
@misfit: I hope they can help. Please let me know if you learn anything useful!
Hans: Is ther a way to differentiate the comments with font colors from the author and other bloggers comment.
@priya: yes, that would be possible. The feed returns the blog-author-name, and also the names of the comment-posters. We could change the javascript-code to test if comment-author = blog-author, and then use another color. It is a nice idea.
Hans,
On my blog I post a weekly Flickr photo which is followed by text.
.flickr-photo { border: solid 2px #000000; }.flickr-yourcomment { }.flickr-frame...
is what appeared in my sidebar this week. I was just curious. Other than that, I love the hack.
Thanks.
@Deb: please leave a link to your blog so that I can take a look.
Debsweb
Thanks, Hans.
This hack is very useful to me and what I found.
comment text are displayed in slant but I want to that text are not in slant. How can I?
@zizukabi: In a next release you will be able to define your own CSS-style for the widget.
Thank you very much for this widget, Hans! I've adjusted it to my blog in German
I'm not an idiot, but I feel like one here... I put the script line above the /head mark, and then put the script in my blog. I keep getting a javascript error: Content.$t is null or not an object... Any ideas? (poppedinmyhead.blogspot.com)
Thanks!
Great Widget.
I noticed that the post tile appears in lower case because it takes it from the feed.
To make it look nicer you can use a simple javascript function to capitalise the first letter of each word. Let me know if you want the script for this.
Cheers
bytheedge
@bytheedge:no need for javascript to do that. In the widget you can define your own css-code for the post. Add the css-property text-transform: capitalize will have the same effect.
Hello Hans, first of all good morning, I have used some tips of your blog in mine.
Please Would be possible that widget “show all comments"? you could translate it to the Spanish. In order to be able to use it and that the date in format dd/mm/yy
Pardon by my badly English, I read it very well, but to write it is another question.:D
My blog is in spanish, not in english,
Thanks ;P
@memoria: it is great idea to make the widgets multilingual. So far, I have no time to do this. I suggest that for now, just change it your self. Step 1: add the widget to your template. Step 2: open the widget in your template editor, look up the url of my javascript file, and download the javascript to your PC. Step 3: edit the javascript file with Notepad, and change the english words to spanish and save. Step 4: host the javascriptfile from a domain you have access to. Step 5: change the javascript url in the widget so that it points to your adapted javascriptfile, and save it.
Hi. I like your blog. well done! Lots of great hacks.
I am wondering if you have ever come across a solution to add recent comments in the sidebar of a private beta blog?
I did post a comment elsewhere, but can't seem to find it. I would love to see a solution.
Thanks!!!
Hi Hans,
Thanks to you and Hoctro for this great hack. Hope you don't mind that I made a few changes to the code, one of which was making sure the last word isn't cut off half way through if you hit your character limit!
You can see it working here
Keep up the hacking!
Hans,
great stuff!! I love the recent comments hack. I was wondering if you also knew a way to add a feature in the posts Archive list that shows a number next to the post that represents the number of comments on that post. for example:
Blog Archives:
"recent post" (3)
the number in () is a link which indicated the number of posts.
just curious.
Hi, have tried a couple of times but it still didn't work.
Hv installed the Javascript sourcefile.
Any steps that i'm missing?
Thanks.
Hi Hans, it works well now. Million thanks!
@Silver: I developed a widget for recent posts for ftp blogs. Try it on your blog!
@foxytallchick: I like the adjustments you made. They are an improvement!
Great tool Hans.. I took the Recent Comments widget.
I would like to know more about how the widget gets directly added without manual intervention..
I have downloaded your "recent comment widget". However, it actually titled as "recent posts"....is there anything wrong?
@Munnacircuit: there was a bug in the installer, that I corrected lately. Now it should display recent comments, not recent posts.
Hans -- great hack. Is there a way to use this with the Beta Rounders templates, such that the round corners are preserved on the menubar?
Hans, Thanks for the great hack and the great site. You can check out my hacksy Minima template at upperfortstewart.blogspot.com
Customizable language display
Salut!,
I’m amaze by your Blog container and content. Thank you for freely sharing all the information and blog tools available on your Blog.
I have recently implemented the Recent Comments Widget on my blogs. I’m French Canadian and I partly blog in Québécois! (It’s closer to French then English.) I wonder if there is an easy way to adjust the language of some portions of the text in this particular widget.
- Considered Text Portions of the Recent Comments Widget
(1) On (2) Dec 25 (3) Hans (4) commented on (5) customizable recent comments widget (6) It is a Recent Comments Widget. You can install it to your Blog with one mouseclick. You can customize it without any template-hacking. It is completely flexible. And it is free! (7) ...(more)
I have notice that the Post Title portion (5) of the particular commented post comes from something like the URL Address of the post rather then the published post title itself. Probably, it’s not possible to change the language of this particular text portion of your widget. If it’s the case, it’s alright with me if it’s not possible to change this portion of the widget but I tend to believe that other text portions like (1), (2), (4) and (7) could easily be changed.
For what I understand, it seems that the language settings for the other portions of the widget are in the “java script code hosted on your server” included in your widget. So I can’t change the language of the text of this particular hack in my HTML code like I have done with some of your other hacks or blog features like the Navigation Top of Page/Top of Post for example.
I would like to have my Québécois Recent Comments Widget display to look like:
Le (2) 25 Déc 3) Hans (4) a commenté: 5) widget personnalisable de commentaires rcents (6) C’est un Widget de commentaires récents. Vous pouvez l'installer sur votre Blog avec un simple click de souris. Vous pouvez l'adapter aux besoins du client sans aucune manipulation de codes complexes. Il est complètement flexible. Et il est gratuit ! (7) …(suite)
My wish is for an optimal French translation taking into account the potentials and limits of your hack but maybe there is a way to make the text portions of your Recent Comments Widget that are flexible to translation open to all languages.... A kind of Recent Comments Widget opened to all languages… A universal language customizable widget that would be so cool!
Merci!
Customizable languages display-Part 2:
Hi again,
I forgot to add that the possibility to display or not the Post Title coming from the URL Address (5) would also be cool.
- Considered Text Portions of the Recent Comments Widget translated to French
COMMENTAIRES RÉCENTS
(1) Le (2) 25 Déc (3) Hans (4) a commenté: (5) widget personnalisable de commentaires rcents (6) C’est un Widget de commentaires récents. Vous pouvez l'installer sur votre Blog avec un simple click de souris. Vous pouvez l'adapter aux besoins du client sans aucune manipulation de codes complexes. Il est complètement flexible. Et il est gratuit ! (7) …(suite)
In Québécois for example, we use a lot of characters that the URL Address don’t support: in the example above récents becomes rcent. It sometimes makes strange display when you have many of this kind of characters in a single Post Title. Further more it is frequently totally impossible to avoid these kind of characters in Québécois when you want to make a significant Post Title. I guess that the other non English people that take advantage of your Recent Comment Widget face the same problem.
Maybe the possibility to simply choose to display or not the commented title post text portion (5) in the Recent Comment Widget could be a solution for me and for some of the non English people.
Thanks...
@Alain: that is a very interesting idea! I guess that from a syntactical point of view this would be quite difficult, because different languages use different syntactical structures. But I agree that it would be a nice touch. What you can do right now, is that you download my recentcomments javascript file (see the widget for the path), translate the english to french or quebecois, and upload it to your own webserver.
I ecognize the problem with the url messing up the post title. But the feed that is used to retrieve the comments does not contain the posttitle, only the post-url.
Customizable languages display-Thanks Hans!:I really appreciate your clarifications and the fact that you point me a way towards a potential solution. I’m a new comer in the computer world and the blogosphere. I’m still trying to learn the basics. I don’t have any other web server than Blogger for now, but I will try to find a way to explore your suggested solution as soon as possible.
Customizable languages display-Right Now Suggestion: Cool! I have tested your «what you can do right now» suggestion in three steps with the free web hosting and file sharing service Ripway. (PS. your javascript sourcefile link is not up to date). Wow! I don’t know much about programming but your file looks so neat and so professional! In addition to your suggested steps and building on from what I have learned in your color scheme tutorial, I have tried the «custom css» option in your «recent comments widget creator». One thing I believe worth to be noted is that I have assigned «text-transform:uppercase;» to «.bbrecpostand» (mainly the date, name and post title portion (1),(2) (3) (4) and (5) of the recent comments hack). In French we sometimes don’t put the accents on the uppercase letters even if they would normally need them. Considering this, if I initially post my post titles with uppercase letters, I will end up with a full post title display in the recent comments widget. Furthermore, because the post titles in my post and in the recent comments widget are in uppercase letters the missing accents are not so chocking. The end result is not perfect but I’m satisfied with it because I feel I’m moving closer to an optimal solution in this particular situation. That’s great because I find this recent comments widget so amazing! Thanks Hans!
@Alain: good job! Basically, it is exactly what I did (and do all the time). Just take a look at other people's coding, see how things are done, and work from there. Takes a lot of time, but it is good learning!
Awesome. Works like a charm. Even puts the most recent comment on top no matter when the post was dated. Awesome. Thanks a million.
Notice one small glitch. If a comment is made on anything other than the first (most recent) post of a day, then the "title" displayed is the first words of the post, not the actual title. Is there a way to hack this or to have it look at "h2" text? THANKS!
Spanish translation for this widget?
Hi, Hans. Your work is great and your explanations are really easy to follow (even without experience with css and html). I have used some of your hacks and advices on my blog, http://errepece.blogspot.com, so thank you very much.
As for this particular widget, and the recent-posts one as well, I followed your instructions to translate them into Spanish: you can see them working on my brother's blog, http://modestiaaparte.blogspot.com (on mine I use those elements in English so I didn't need the adaptation).
Just in case someone wants to point to my Spanish version of your script, the url for recent comments is http://errepece.googlepages.com/showrecentcomments2esp.js, and the one for recent posts is http://errepece.googlepages.com/showrecentposts2esp.js (maybe Memori@ will find this useful).
Thank you again for this great site. I already have a link to it on mine.
hey i jus installed this widget. would the latest 5 comments be displayed as soon as i install it or the next 5 comments after installin this would appear??
@Jau: the glitch you reported is new to me. My widget takes its information straight from the feed. The post title is not part of the commentsfeed. The commentsfeed only has the post url. The url that Blogger creates is in some cases a little bit different from the actual post title. My widget takes the post url, and reconstructs a post title from it. So that explains that the post title in the widgets differs from the real post title.
@errepece: that is great! thanks.
@radvixen: the 5 most recent comments (or posts for the posts widget), are displayed (or 10, or 20 if you set the number that way). They are taken from the feeds. SO if you install the widget today, also older entries will be shown immediately.
Hans, thanks of your code! BTW, I am Chinese user, my blog was wrote by Traditional Chinese. After I put the code as you provide, I found the post title cannot show the Chinese name, can you help me to solve this problem? Thanks!
Confusing installation. Followed instructions on this page and it didnt work. Read in the comments that you have to maually install a line of HTML to call a script? Whats the point of one-click-installation? Doesnt the hack already reference a script from your site?
Nothing in the install instructions above says I need to install a separate script by hand. Clicking the link to the download page hides the BB script library above my screen.
I installed the BB library anyway, and it still didnt work. I dont have time to debug this now, and I shouldnt have to. Thank god Im a coder... your average blogger must be truly lost.
Ok, that was weird... I closed my browser (Firefox) and reopened my blog, and it worked.
My comments about the confusion still stand. Perhaps an update like on the recent posts widget page to clarify.
I have another question. Is there any way to remove the "...more" in the commented text? I like to have as little verbiage as possible, so I would like to just to say "[name] on [title]". Is that pushing my luck too far?? :)
@jau: feel free to download the javascript, change it to your needs, and host it yourself.
Hi,
Thanks for this site that is more than usefull. That being said, I have been unable to implement the Recent Comments Widget. When clicking on "Add Widget To My Blog", I get a popup ( http://beta.blogger.com/add-widget ) where I can't select any blog ( the list is empty), even though I am already logged with my Google account (in new blogger). Any help possible? Thanks in advance!
Thanks for the great tool! However, something is not working properly at my blog. The comments that are shown are the most recent as of the time I installed the hack. It is not updating with new comments. What should I do?
Thanks for your help!
Something is wrong - current comments are not showing - not on your list nor on any of ours. Has Blogger changed something? Has the widget changed?
same problem here
blogger changed something..
I just want to put all scripts in my widget, not to host it on somewhere else. How can I do that?
Added your widget to my blog :) Cheers Hans!
Hello Hans!
I just added your widget to my blog! Thank you very much and it's really cool! Cheers
Thank you Hans for the widget. It's great.
Can I a you a question? I know it may sound a bit trivial, but I need your blessing. Can you add target="_blank" coz I want both url in widget by and powered by open to a new window. I thank you in advance, Hans.
Greetings and lotta loves from Malaysia.
Great stuff Hans. i was looking at various hacks to show the comments before I found your great widgit.
Would it be possible to add a couple of things to the custom attributes:
- reverse comment order, so most recent is last
- do not show link back to original post
If there is a way of doing this please let me know. Thanks for a killer widgit.
Sorry, not showing link back to original post is achieved by setting showposttitle to false. Working on hack to showrecentcomments2.js to reorder & also show time as well as date.
Have not been able to work the javascript code myself :-( Is there anyway to have comments appearing under each post rather than all grouped at the bottom?
Hi, like you haven't got enough questions already...
how do you put spaces in between the recent comments? I'm a bit Javascript illiterate.
Thanks:-)
I am using this on my blog but something weird is happening. The posttitle reflected is sometimes not the correct title and it is all in lowercase letters. Can you please help me? Thank you!
Myla
myla.beingabetterme@gmail.com
http://beingabetterme.blogspot.com/
@myla: the posttitle that you enter when you create a post, is used by Blogger to create a html-page-name for your post. In this process, you posttitle is changed a bit. For example, a post called "Add a favicon to your blog" might be displayed on a html-page called "add-favicon-to-your-blog.html".
In the Blogger comment-feed, it is not the page-title that is providedm but the html-page-name. The widget parses this pagename, cuts off the html-part, and replaces the - characters with spaces. Thta is why some posttitles seem to be messed up.
I got a better idea and want to share you all. Please visit http://lvchen716.googlepages.com/rc_eng.
The page is still under construction but the widget is workable.
I have installed the recent comments widget about half year ago and everything worked really fine. Thank you, Hans, for your great job.
However, two weeks ago it became quite messy: Recent comments were still shown in the element, but after clicking on the "more" not the comment, but the post was opened.
So on a 60 comment-article, the last comment isn't shown. It now just opens the post.
Was there any change in blogger.com? I think I havemn't changed anything in my script. Thanks for your kind help!
I just installed this in no time at all. It works wonderfully. Thank you so much!
I installed this but couldn't get it to work until I changed permissions to allow anyone to view the blog. Is it possible to have it work but still keep the readership limited to those I invite?
@Henry: no, that is not possible. This widget uses a public Blogger feed.
Hi! I added this widget to my blog. But can you teach me how to change the font color for the links (post title & commenter's link)? I don't know anything about html or css... just really good at copy & paste, LOL! Thanks very much!
Installed this widget and found this widget very helpful.. thanks a lot dude....

I have always enjoyed the recent comments widget on my blog but when I went private, it doesn't seem to work anymore. Is there any way around that?
Thanks
Hi,this is great. When installed I get double spaces in between the post headings. Anyway to correct that? Thanks.

With reference to the above, where could I find the Recent Comments js code to dowload in order to host it?

It works. Very simple too, I must add. Thanks!
This is a very useful widget with incredible customization options.

Can this comment widget be used on other websites that are NOT blogs?
Could be very useful I think.
Dan
hi, just added your script, but it seams that whenever i click on the "more.." link I'll get redirected to the top of that post not to the comment, should it be that way, did i forget something or could it be changed?
thanks a lot in advance, your tutorial was very easy to understand and helped a lot.

Hi,
I just installed the widget in my PRIVATE Blog and it doesn't work.
Am I missing something?
Thanks in advance.
Guy
Hmm, tried it and nothing appears in my sidebar. Then when I removed it it screwed up my blog. Back to looking for something that works.
Blogger announced that they support blog feeds in JSON format also. Soon, Hoctro found some sample code to use these JSON feeds and used it to come up with a recent posts/comments widget of his own. It is now possible to customize the recent comments widget further to anyone's needs. Using Blogger's feed widget to display recent comments method, we can only show very few words of the comment and upto 5 comments only.
