  • Show the date of the comment, or not.
  • Set the format of the date.
  • Set the size (as a fraction of the normal text size) of the date string.
  • Show an excerpt from the comment.
  • Convert smilies in the excerpt.
  • Show a country flag indicating the source of the comment, requires MySQL database modifications, see below.
  • Show a country flag in main comment loops, non-widget, requires theme and MySQL database modifications, see below.

The style of the output may be controlled with simple CSS rules that need to be included in your styles.css template file.
