I am trying to put recent comments in my sidebar. I was able to get this to work on my Category, and Monthly pages. But not my Main Index and Individual Archive. Should I be doing something different for those pages?

Here is my code:

CODE

recent comments 

<MTComments lastn="2">
<$MTCommentAuthorLink spam_protect="1"$>:
<$MTCommentBody trim_to="30" convert_breaks="0"$>... <a href="<$MTBlogURL$>archives/<$MTCommentEntryID pad="1"$>.html">more »</a> 
</MTComments>

And a link to my site:

Any suggestions are always appreciated.
Thanks

You're welcome

Also, btw, a search on recent AND comments reveals a million threads, many of them on just this topic, so you might try that in the future if you'd like a quicker answer.
