- For others that may find it useful, I've made two modifications to the FreePress Recent Coments plugin on DLTJ: one to strip out quoted material when using the Quoter plugin and a second to suppress pingback entries that result from links to material within the blog.Code from the first came from a blog posting about how to get Quoter to work with a different recent comments plugin.
