 * I have tried putting the following into a page and a post and I cannot get either
   to work. An error is displayed saying, “ERROR: SET ALL ATTRIBUTES i.e sheet, 
   worksheet, user and pass.”
 * The shortcode reads as follows:
 * [gdata_import sheet=”[https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AqYxEthPndJ8dDUzXzhzblZfY29GVTJGN216YTNvZUE#gid=0&#8243](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AqYxEthPndJ8dDUzXzhzblZfY29GVTJGN216YTNvZUE#gid=0&#8243);
   worksheet=”PrayerSchedule” user=”learningazigo” password=”thisisnottherealpass”]

 * Use:
 * [gdata_import sheet=”[https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AqYxEthPndJ8dDUzXzhzblZfY29GVTJGN216YTNvZUE#gid=0&#8243](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AqYxEthPndJ8dDUzXzhzblZfY29GVTJGN216YTNvZUE#gid=0&#8243);
   worksheet=”PrayerSchedule” user=”learningazigo” pass=”thisisnottherealpass”]
 * Its “pass” instead of “password.”

 * Thanks for the reply Ankit. I changed my mistake of “password” to “pass” and 
   now get the following:
 * ERROR: DOMDocument cannot parse XML: DOMDocument::loadXML() [domdocument.loadxml]:
   Premature end of data in tag html line 1 in Entity, line: 37
 * Thanks for your time helping this newbie figure it out…

 * Thanks for the continued assitance. I thought it was going to work this time,
   but it returned the following error:

   timed out

 * After several days of my web host (Arvixe) troubleshooting the problem, here 
   is the latest from their tech support:
 * “Hello,
 * I have re-installed firewall and now outgoing SSL connections are allowed from
   server. Now your wordpress page shows the error:
 * ERROR: DOMDocument cannot parse XML: DOMDocument::loadXML() [domdocument.loadxml]:
   Extra content at the end of the document in Entity, line: 25
 * This appears to be due to bad XML file that is being loaded. Can you please verify
   it?”

 * Hello, I too am having some issues getting it to work.
 * “ERROR: SET ALL ATTRIBUTES i.e sheet, worksheet, user and pass.”
 * I followed both instructions above;
 * [gdata_import sheet=”[https://spreadsheets.google.com/feeds/spreadsheets/0AtU7Gc7Z5rtfdGxkOFZFQU1QQnZ1Sm5QLUsxdENtYWc&#8221](https://spreadsheets.google.com/feeds/spreadsheets/0AtU7Gc7Z5rtfdGxkOFZFQU1QQnZ1Sm5QLUsxdENtYWc&#8221);
   worksheet=”one-location” user=”dcrowe13″ pass=”xxxxxxxxxxx”]
 * any ideas? I also tried [dcrowe13@gmail.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-gdata-importer-cannot-get-plugin-to-work/dcrowe13@gmail.com?output_format=md)
   as my user with no luck.
