As the author I’d like to know, too. There have only been a couple of instances where we couldn’t get it to work, and only a handful where it didn’t work right out of the box.
I’ve used it successfully in every release of 2.8.
I have just noticed my error log is full of errors like this:
WordPress database error You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘)’ at line 1 for query INSERT INTO wp_recently_popular(user_type, post_id) VALUES (1, ); made by require, require_once, include, thesis_html_framework, get_header, locate_template, load_template, require_once, wp_head, do_action, call_user_func_array, recently_popular_record_hit
Any thoughts?
Disabling the plugin for now…too much noise in the log file!
from FTP edit /wp-content/plugins/recently-popular/recently-popular.php
find this function: function recently_popular_record_hit()
//ERROR//$wpdb->query(“INSERT INTO $table(user_type, post_id) VALUES ($user_type, $post->ID);”);
It should be:
$wpdb->query(“INSERT INTO $table(user_type, post_id) VALUES ($user_type, $post->ID)”);
ooops! still errors… 😛 but no doubt it need to be fixed from that line.
