Newslisting issues

Hi guys,

I’m trying to find my way around in Modx and it’s going pretty well.

I have 2 questions about the Newslisting snippet.

1. On my blog I would like the amount of comments of every blog item being displayed. With even the timestamp of the most recent comment if possible. How do I make this work? The snippet call on the main blog-page is: [[NewsListing? &startID=`2` &summarize=`5` &total=`20` &commentschunk=`FormBlogComments`]]

2. I have a sidebar in which I also want to use the newslisting snippet. It should display the 5 most recent comments on all blog posts with links to those posts

I couldn’t figure these two things out myself. Maybe you can help me or put me in the right direction!
