I will be happy to respond :)<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt>I have installed the plugin, fiddled with the settings, added a widget\/shortcode, there is no error message but I see no button!<\/dt>\n<dd><p>This usually happens when the plugin cannot find a Skype ID to work with. You can set a different Skype ID for each widget but be sure to set a Skype ID on your Skype options page so the plugin as at least one to fall back on. If you still see no Skype button, reset all options using the Reset button or the Remove button to remove-uninstall-reinstall and start completely fresh.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt>I have installed the plugin and it is working fine, but now there is a ad link below my Skype button. What's with that?<\/dt>\n<dd><p>By default, the plugin displays a link below each Skype button that allows visitors without Skype to download it. This link goes via the plugin creators Skype Affiliate account so with each new Skype install there will be some small revenue for maintenance and support of this plugin. If you object to that, you can either disable the link, change is to a direct link or replace it with your own affiliate link on the Skype Online Status options page.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt>I would like to contribute.
