<p>This plugin adds a link to the “Edit Posts” view that will allow someone with “can moderate comments” capability (Editor) to download a CSV of all comments for that particular post. This gives an easy one page view of all comments and that can be opened using something like Microsoft Excel. Useful when running a contest on your blog and you are using the comments section for entries. You can then use something like “random.org” to pick a number, and then choose the corresponding row number to decide the winner in your contest.</p>
