Thank you very much for the reply, avatar. I’ve done and re-done the installation using js-kit’s instructions, but can’t get it to work. When I try to use the comments widget as they suggest in their instructions (inserting the code into the main code of my blog), any existing or additional comments are cloned twice in every post. This means that if there’s a single post with six comments made through js-kit, then ALL my posts will have those six comments, twice.
I managed to get round the problem by inserting the code into individual posts as mentioned before, but it’s still not right.

I have my blog set up to ‘one post on the main page’ and am using labels as a means of links in the sidebar. In each post, I change the js-kit ‘path’ to the url of that post’s page, so that comments for that post know where to go.
But what happens now, is that the test comments I have made, will only show up on the latest post, even if they weren’t initially made on that post.

What I’m trying to say, is that I can direct the comments to a particular post (using the label in the path’s url), but I can’t direct them AWAY from the latest post, because the latest post goes on the main page and doesn’t have a label assigned to it.
