## Beschreibung

This plugin replaces the default recent comments widget so it behaves differently.
Instead of the format „username on post title,“ the widget will display „username
said comment excerpt.“

All development happens on Github at [https://github.com/csalzano/recent-comments-widget-with-comment-excerpts](https://github.com/csalzano/recent-comments-widget-with-comment-excerpts)

Contact me by posting a message in the forums or [@breakfastcodes](https://twitter.com/breakfastcodes)
