It's been sometimes that I gave up looking for a widget that can display the top commenters in TAP (The Aroengbinang Project), as a form of appreciation to those who frequently click the "Post a Comment" link at the bottom of an article and took the time to compose and post their comments in TAP.
It was last night when I was Googling for a blogger widget that can display most viewed posts that I stumbled on a search result which was not related with the popular post that I was looking for, but with the long abandoned Top Commenter widget instead. It's like confirming the wisdom of Paulo Coelho in the Alchemist that if you dream of something, the whole universe will (finally) conspire to help you to make it happen.
It's Amanda, the Blogger Buster, who has wonderfully created a very simple one click widget installer that requires no sweat to install the widget at the side-bar of our blog.
What I did was just four simple steps:
- replace "yourblogname.yourdomain.com" with "aroengbinang.blogspot.com"
- in the "Filter your name", replace "yourName" with "aroengbinang", the name that I use to reply comments, so that it will be excluded from the top commenter list.
- click the "Customize" button, then
- click "Add to Blogg >>" button.
