Previously I've been posting about "make recent comments widget with avatars and tooltip". In this article I will share about making the top commentators widget displays the name of the commentator and avatars. Style of course you can modify more to your liking, add effects howover the avatar or name, or display the number of comments on the type and size commentators link.
The usefulness of this widget, you can interpret as appreciation for your loyal visitors or invitations to draw attention and desire to be more active in your blog commented.
If you are interested in adding a top commentators widget interesting with this avatar, please follow the following tutorial:
On the dashboard -> Menu Layout -> Add a gadget HTML / JavaScript
Give the title / title you want the column content and enter the following code:
<style type="text/css">
.top-commenter-line img {
-webkit-border-radius: 100px; -moz-border-radius: 100px; border-radius: 100px; -webkit-box-shadow: 0 1px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, .4); -moz-box-shadow: 0 1px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, .4); box-shadow: 0 1px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, .4);
margin-left:5px;margin-right:5px;
}
.top-commenter-line {margin: 5px 0;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;padding:3px 5px 6px 0px;}
.top-commenter-line .profile-name-link {padding-left:0;font-weight:bold;}
.top-commenter-avatar {vertical-align:middle;width:30px;height:30px;
}
</style>
