 * Hi,
 * Downloaded today, installed, started using your plug-in on my development server.
 * I noticed the design and lay-out is different from my personal theme.
 * While I started to investigate the source code, I noticed my console found an
   error while loading the page I indicated as ‘guestbook’ page:
 * _Failed to load resource: wp-content/plugins/rizzi-guestbook/styles/Default.css
   is missing._
 * I downloaded again and unzipped in a different location, but still no default.
   css file.
 * I see you updated yesterday. Is it possible something went wrong while recreating
   or updating the download package? Can you recreate it or provide another download
   location?
 * Thanks 🙂
 * Jhenthy

 * Yes, this file is still missing. Here’s what I did – I downloaded the original
   plugin that this one was developed from and just included that particular file
   into the Sytles folder. It worked like a charm.
 * I have a feeling the lack of this file stems from the fact that this is a derivative
   version from the original and this author seemingly is either not aware that 
   they must include all the files that are called within the .php files, and/or
   they not debugging or at least taking a cursory glance at the errors that are
   thrown once the plugin is activated.
 * On a positive note, the date suppression now works like a charm! I really really
   like this plugin – it’s simple and does what it says in an elegant way. I do 
   wish there was a bit more styling included, but maybe it’s nice that I can style
   it completely on my own through the default CSS file that I added.
 * Thanks for the update. If you just pull that original default.css and include
   it, everything functions great!

 * I hadn’t the previous version or the version where this version relies on.
    While
   waiting an answer, I started to create my own default.css, based on the output
   generated by the plugin while activated in a test environment. At the same time,
   I changed some of the code to have the output seamless integrated in my website
   project.
 * I also found a problem while using the function to show date and time below a
   post. I found out ‘the system’ has problems to use file names with spaces and
   ampersants. I don’t know if this specific for this plugin or a general WordPress
   issue.
 * For this plugin, I could make a work-around:
    Step 1: Rename the two .css files
   to a file name without spaces and without ampersand Step 2: De-activate and re-
   activate the plugin.
 * I used “datetime.css” and “justthepost.css” as new file names.

 * If you download the newest version, 2.3.3, the css files load properly. The ampersand
   actually does work (at least on the newest version of WordPress), but I did have
   a lot of trouble getting it to work properly. However, it is working fine now.
   Make sure you have the newest version of WordPress and the newest version of 
   the plugin. I am so sorry about this bug. I submitted 3 versions of the plugin
   that the css files were not being located properly, however, I know for a fact
   they are working properly on the newest version. If the issue is still persisting,
   please let me know. Thank you, and I hope you enjoy the plugin.
