James. Great stuff. I use WordPress Widgets and your solution worked perfectly. I wasn’t sure what to do there for a while, thought I was going to have to rewrite Scott’s plugin to make it a widget!

Thanks for this info, it’s working great on my blogs now. Now to figure out how to get the little ‘bump it’ thingie to show up on each one of my posts…

James, your point number 2 is only true if you put the widget on the left side, or more specifically, anywhere in the code that gets run before the post is displayed (aka “the loop”).

When it’s on the right, it gets run after the post is displayed and gets the variables set properly to pass the comment info.

Couple of quick points.

If I put this in the left nav, it was giving me an SQL error on single posts. Scott is looking into this.
While the sidebar works, you still need to have the "Bump this" part in your code to get your blog comments to come up in the discussion list on BUMPZee.
