Edit the HTML/Javascript gadget. Change lines 93 and 115, which both look like this now:
var entry = json.feed.entry[i];to:
var entry = json.feed.entry[i]; if(entry.author[0].name.$t=="PUT YOUR USERNAME HERE") continue;Edit your username inside the quotation marks. Save the gadget. Your comments won't be displayed anymore in recent comments.

Help! Thks for directing me to this link but I can't find the lines you've mentioned in my blog: Shirley's Luxury Haven
Hmm... can't seem to suppress my own comments. Can you clarify what my "USERNAME" is? I tried both "Laura @ hip pressure cooking" (which is my Blogger display name) and "lapsushumanus" (which is my blogger log-in name).
Neither seem to get the job done.
I apologize for taking so much of your very precious time in my latest MSPolitas hack spree!!

Hi,
that should be the display name, "Laura @ hip pressure cooking" in your case, the full line becoming:
var entry = json.feed.entry[i]; if(entry.author[0].name.$t=="Laura @ hip pressure cooking") continue;
hope you get it working :)
@MS-potilas
Still no luck. Could the @ in the username be causing problems?
Do I need to have any other hacks in place (I think one of the other hacks needed a user profile hack to work).
Thanks,
L

Hi,
you need only the (son of the better) recent comment hack with this modification. It might be the @ sign that breaks it. You could try the following line instead:
var entry = json.feed.entry[i]; if(entry.author[0].uri.$t=="http://www.blogger.com/profile/09492675720895007928") continue;
(All in one line.) There http://www.blogger.com/profile/09492675720895007928 is your profile url.
@MS-potilas
That is a better variable because the profile URL never changes, but anyone could change, their username without knowing they are breaking the script.
I tired making the @ go through with back-slashes, HTML character number &; - the script didn't like it.
I will try re-installing the script from scratch because now it doesn't even like the profile URL variable.
This is a very valuable hack,none-the-less. Especially for those, like me, who approve each comment manually and then reply all at once. So it's boring to just see ME listed in the recent comments if I reply to 7 new comments! Plus, I want the focus of this widget to be on what OTHER people think of my blog not what I think about my own blog. :O
Ciao and have a great Tuesday!!

@Laura @ hip pressure cooking
I re-installed the script from scratch. Then replaced the string with this:
var entry = json.feed.entry[i]; if(entry.author[0].uri.$t=="http://www.blogger.com/profile/09492675720895007928") continue;
I saved after each replace. The first replacement nothing happened - expected.
The second replacement, the script stopped executing altogether- oops!
Going to try now with the usernames - because I was only replacing the string in ONE spot of the script before.
Will write back to let you know about my progress.

@Laura @ hip pressure cooking
OK, I went back to do what I was SUPPOSED to do in the script - twice - and it didn't work.
Oh well... I think it's time for me to give up on this hack. Thank you SOOO much for your help, and it was very kind of you to provide a personlized variable for me to just copy and paste!
Ciao,

See the hack to make the 'Post a Comment' link bigger.
