popularity contest plugin gives a fatal error when activated in WP 2.6 and higher. What to do?:)
I was reading over your site and like what I saw. I just wanted to say keep up the good work.
Kindly download the Popularity Contest revised plugin above and activate it. Keep us posted.

Hi,
I tryed Magaling on WP 2.7 and it did not work properly.
Will there be a Magaling compatible with WP 2.7?
Tks
This might be helpful: What is the custom template used for the google ads?
I think you have made one of the best templates I’ve ever seen. You do great work. I just wish I could get my thumbnails to work. For some reason it won’t. Still love your work though….keep it up. Bob
Here’s the blog site with your theme.
My Blog with your template. Again, you do great work! Bob
I had a problem accessing the options page (if this is what you are referring to). The problem seems to be that the path to the userinterface.php file is incomplete. To resolve it, I went to the wp-content/themes/magaling/ folder and edited the functions.php file as follows:
Find the following line of code:
require get_theme_root() . ‘/’ . $shortname . ‘/options/userinterface.php’;
Change it to:
require get_theme_root() . ‘/’ . $shortname . ‘/magaling/options/userinterface.php’;
The only thing you are changing is adding “magaling/” before the word “options” in the file path.
I hope this helps!
