That’s why it’s ‘loading…’ and never show comment list?
  1. Check footer.php file of your theme, if you cannot find <?php wp_footer(); ?>, please add <?php wp_footer(); ?> before </body>.

Comments are messed up after update plugin?
  1. Select ‘Use wp-recentcomments.css’ in ‘Settings -> WP-RecentComments’ page.
