  you know, somehow I knew you’d be the first person here! In fact, I would be surprised if you came here as soon as I thought about making this post (get out of my head!!!! lol)

  I’ve just upgraded and now it isn’t showing any luv. Don’t tell me I stiffed something up. Normally it shows up in the dashboard that a plugin needs upgrading but it didn’t so I just wrote over the old files.

  I left the settings as default. My commentluv member ID is still there. I logged out to test it and the image is there, but that’s it.

  @Sire

  are you sure everything is default?

  i mean “Choose to have CommentLuv on by default?” isn’t set to “false”

  @Andy
  2.1 is batter then any previous version, specially users ability to change post to be linked

  Sire: I think your settings are remembering the beta version settings of #url for the url field, if there is a # character in the url id name in the settings page you will need to remove it. I’ll see if I can add a reset settings button for the beta users

  Dennis: try deleting the commentluv folder (after deactivating) and then upload the new version

  sunil: thanks for helping out

  Andy – thats exactly what I did (I never override if I can avoid it).

  Not only will the new one not upload, but now I can’t restore the other one (I didn’t delete the deletion just in case).

  This is the long error message I get when trying to restore the original one……

  That did it. I had to remove the # from both url and comment and then it worked. Damn, now I have a headache. I don’t know how you do it.

  Think I need a beer.

  Thanks Andy.

  @Dennis
  Get plugin central fro wordpress

  http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/plugin-central/

  it lets you install plugins without using FTP

  i installed cumentluv with this plugin without deleting my old installation and its worked fine for me without any error

  I’ve heard of several of the “auto plugins”…not too keen on ‘em but I downloaded this one and may try it out.

  I did get this uploaded finally, I just need a clue on how to set it up in the settings page

  Dennis: check out the latest post (coming soon) for the “by popular demand” updates to the plugin. I have added a reset box to the settings page if you mess things up with the values.

  Sire: get me a lime and soda! (lol, just kidding!… it’s lemon and soda)

  Sunil: thanks for letting us know

  lodewijk: see above about updates, one more is allowing the user to use text instead of an image (or no image at all)

  I tried with your feedburner url and it came back with less than 2 posts. You could of course register your url at commentluv.com and specify a feed location there which turns on caching so feedburner should send back a full feed.
• Andy Bailey
  September 24th, 2008 on 5:23 pm

  Lodewijk: I can see you are registered and have your site verified at commentluv.com have you specified your feed of http://feeds.lodewijkvdb.com/HowToBeAnOriginal in the settings page at commentluv.com? if you did, it should work. For some reason, your feed isn’t returning anything unless I use a browser to view it

  The only way the server can track how many comments you make is when the script gets called. You don’t need to submit the comment for it to count it because it doesn’t know if you pressed submit or not.

  the click tracking should be accurate but the links made and recieved wont be spot on simply because it would be impossible to tell if a user changed their last post or if they decided not to submit. also, if you are logged out of your own site and reply to one of your commenters, that will count as one comment made.

  I could add a bit of script to confirm this with the commentluv site but I wouldn’t want to delay the comment posting which is vital to happy users!

  you need to change your commentform ID to #commentform (with a #) for it to work on your site (in the settings page for the plugin)

  You mean to tell me that

  (1) I get to help improve my favorite plugin
  (2) get backlinks galore
  AND a chance to win $100?!

  Seriously, you are outdoing yourself.

  Thanks sooooo much!

  Hmm, strange that my feeds shows up nearly empty outside the browsers. It validates through the feed validators, so there’s no coding error with it. Since feedburner serves it, I don’t expact real problems there as well.

  I’ll experiment more, since it’s still not working. If I find a solution I’ll let you know.

  lodewijk: there is something up with your feed for sure, I even tried a commercial feed script and that had trouble too

  for some reason your feed is connecting but then timing out, have you got feedburner set to not allow scraping?
