If you want to do the same thing (see the “complements of” after each post on the index page?), you can download it from that site.

I made a few quick changes to the code, though. I wanted commas in-between each person, so I needed to have the script put in a comma after every entry other than the last one. In order to do so, after the script files all comment authors and URLs into the array $commenters, I assigned a new variable $count the integer one and got a count of the array. In code form:

$result = count($commenters);
$count = 1;

(Hint: $count starts at 1 to account for the fact that I don’t want a comma after the last commenter) After that, I concatenated a comma onto the string after each commenter and added one to the count, other than the last one, by adding the following line:

if ($result!=$count) { $output .= ', '; $count++; }

All together, my version of the script, starting at the if ($commenters) line looks something like this (with various other little edits, for example, I took out the < li > and < ul > tags, but you get the general idea):

if ($commenters) {
  $output = '';
  $output2 = 'anonymous';
  $commenters = array_reverse($commenters);
  $result = count($commenters);
  $count = 1;

  print "
";
  print "";
  print "Complements of";
  print "   ";

foreach ($commenters as $commenter) {
   if (!empty($commenter->comment_author))  {
      if (!empty($commenter->comment_author_url)) {
        $output .= '' . $commenter->comment_author . '';
	   if ($result!=$count) {
                     $output .= ', ';
                     $count++;  }  }
      else {
        $output .= $commenter->comment_author . '';
           if ($result!=$count) {
                     $output .= ', ';
                     $count++; }   }
      }
      else
        $output .= $output2;
      }  echo $output; print "

";
   }
}
?>

Isn’t coding fun?!

Available for download is the script to implement a bookshelf of your very own. It’s not a very advanced script as it is my first, but I thought I’d make it available in case anyone was interested. I’m also working on a tutorial on how to make wordpress plugins. I’ve only got the first paragraph right now, but I need to first find a plug-in that will let me display programming code on wordpress pages, and then I’ll be able to keep working on it. Wish me luck!
