FAQ
As soon as your question arrives I will add it here.
- Some weird error message
-
Do your server run php5? We need the “DOM” section of your phpinfo() show “enabled”-values.
- There’s an error message like “ERROR: domdocument::domdocument() expects 2 parameter to be long”
-
Disable the
domxml
extension of your php installation.domxml
is a legacy extension introduced for php4 which lacks cool dom-functions. But in php5 they are built in and – guess what – incompatible with the old extension. So we rely on the new bright and shiny built-in functions. - Can I use this plugin without a widget?
-
Unfortunately this is not possible. As all options are set on a per-widget basis, there is no way to display a list without a widget.
- Can you translate the plugin to language [insert-your-language]
-
No… but: You can! Just have a look at the translation files and/or contact me for further instructions.
