Josh: thanks for your comments, the plugin usually picks up the last entry as long as the site has a feed on it but some static sites don’t have a fully formed feed and that’s when an error will happen and sometimes returns a 1 . i’ll update the plugin so it doesn’t show when a 1 is returned. It’ll be ready at the wordpress repository in a few hours.

Hey Andy. First off let me say that I love this plugin. I have commentluv running great. I just wanted to ask if it is supposed to pick up feeds from static websites? I have a few visitors whose comments show “last blog post.. 1″ whenever they comment. I look at their site and their feed works properly (as I’m able to subscribe to them through different readers). Is it their feed that’s incompatible? If so, what can they do to fix it?

I would just be glad you got some sort of an answer. Those log files can be huge though. Wish there was a way we could see when they were reaching capacity. Jane Does last blog post..I SAW YOUR NANNY - Welcome

Glad to hear that it goes off site now, I’ll upgrade my version.

I think an option to clean up after 2 weeks would be great - like akismet, delete automatically after x amount of time.

leanne: sorry about the problems you had before with commentluv causing wordpress to store extra rows in the options table, this was something that wasn’t noticed for a while because it didn’t happen on everyones site. The new version goes off site to get the post now so there is nothing stored anywhere in the wp database except the extra text on the comment.

do you think I need to add an option on the new version of commentluv to clean up any mess that might have been made by older versions?

I disabled commentluv yesterday because of the way that it caches the feed and never clears the table in the database. I had over 5,000 rows in my database just from a month using your plugin - in fact it was brought to my attention because another site on my server used it and had nearly a million rows stored in the database and caused the server to crash. Has that issue been addressed? Can the rows be cleared after two weeks, or a period of time so that this problem doesn't progress to many users having server problems?

Hey, at least they gave you an answer, LOL! Before I moved to my own server at another network, my old service couldn't even pinpoint where the problem was! Hope everything works out. Sharons last blog post..Estee Lauder Celebrates Successful Thirteen Year Partnership With Elizabeth Hurley

bobby: I really want the remote commentluv script to be working perfectly before I make the blogspot version available otherwise I’ll end up with a gazzillion comments for bugfixes from ’spoters incidentally, it should work on typepad and live journal blogs too when I have the script tags sorted. You’re better off without a dedicated server, they only bring pain and trauma!
