I know this is going to sound weird, but why don’t you try entering a name for your blog?

I dont understand this part – you mean a “site title” ?, you are talking to a relevan newcomer to wordpress here , sorry about that but thanks for your help

Ok, I have the number of comments set to 5, I have approved your comment which make 2 toatl for my site at the moment, the comments do not show up on my main page in the recent comments widget.

As you said maybe theres a bug etc – should I try downloading another plugin etc and try.

Thanks for looking into this – hopefully I can get it to work

The WP plugin Recent Comments is what I have used but no comments appear, It just doesn’t work, I never said I was dropping code into a text widget, I understand that.

All I’m trying to get is when someone comments on my page that the comments appear on the sidebar but at the moment for the life of me nothing works
