Now you can see another part in this code with blue letters “ XXXXX”. Here you may give your name, ie the name which you use to comment back in your own comment box. This will filter TOP COMMENTATORS from your own comments.
Now “SAVE”. The “TOP COMMENTATOR WIDGET” will appear on your blog, showing who is the top commentator in your blog.
