Okay - so it’s either being PHP4 that was the problem or beingin a subfolder on the domain.I had this particular WP Blog running in a subfolder since it was a blog in development on a PHP4 host. I have the site live at the domain level with no subfolders now on a PHP5 host and it works.

Weird stuff… but it does work with 2.5.1 for me now.

Hey Mike…

Finally getting to check this thing out in WP 2.5.1. It works but when logging in it doesn’t quite go all the way. It chokes up at authentication and still makes you login using the wordpress screen.

I’ll try to see if I can’t figure it out, but thought I’d at least shoot it your way.

Thanks for the great plugin and all the help.

Hi folks… I got a problem when I click on Dashboard using your wonderful Plugin. I come to the dashboard but the Url says only “http://localhost/wordpress/wp-admin/”

I do a lot of backend hacks… and they don´t work on the dashboard. It took me a day to find out that works well when I fix the url by hand to “http://localhost/wordpress/wp-admin/index.php”

Now i am looking for the line in your plugin to hack it myself… but i a m a designer Could anyone help, please

Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_userdatabylogin() in /path/to/public_html/wp-includes/capabilities.php on line 153

It seems to work ok until I try to logout - when I click the link to logout nothing happens. Anybody else having a problem with the logout?

First of all thanks for this great widget! My apologies if this has already been answered… but I’m having a hard time trying to change the color of the displayed username with my limited CSS knowledge. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

@ Lynda M - It only shows if registrations are enabled in your blog. Check wordpress settings.

@ Randy - Fixing it myself now, will post when fixed - thanks Mark

The ampersand in the log out URL
(Line 37: … wp-login.php?action=logout&redirect_to= …)
should be written as a HTML-Entitie to create valid pages.
