Is there a way to have an option to enable more than one comment block. I have 3 blogs and would lie recent comments for each of them seperately.
This is kind of urgent. Is this possible? Or can i just install the module 3 times?

Comment #1
todd nienkerk commentedThis module is currently designed to appear only once. Installing any module more than once is a big, big no-no.
If you require multiple blocks that display comments, I suggest using Views. You can create as many blocks as you like.
Comment #2
vako commentedOK, is the Block of this module exposed to Views so we can modify it to suit our needs? or how can we expose it to Views?
Comment #3
todd nienkerk commentedVako: This module does not expose anything to Views. I was suggesting using Views instead of this module.
Comment #4
vako commentedI know Todd, I already have done something with the Views, but would like to have the features of this module as well. i.e.: buttons for approving, deleting and editing comments directly from the Block view. Do you think it can be done by Views?
Comment #5
todd nienkerk commentedVako: You may be able to add those links to Views by generating custom URLs with operations like /edit, /delete, and so on. That question should be asked in the Views issue queue.
The original support request was to ask if this module could create more than one block. I'm going to mark this issue resolved ("by design"), as this module does not supply more than one block.
