* Hi,
* I’m having a problem with saving the settings in Sociable plugin. After many
attempts to change the settings, it always reverts to the default settings.
* I want to be able to open link in a new window and add more sites.
* Anyone know how this can be fixed?
* Thanks.

* I am having a VERY similar problem (on WP 2.6, but I did have the issue with
2.7). I am using IIS7 (because I want both PHP and ASP.NET) with Godaddy. The
changes are not save, but this only happens with certain plugins.. and then some
plugins save the changes fine… additionally, I cannot change the header theme
image. I don;t mind cause I worked my way around it, but when I try to upload
an image, and when I click the button to save it, it brings me back to the “General
Settings”… anytime I am at Gerenal Settings after attempting to save changes
from a lugin or something, I know it didn’t work 🙁
Anyone have any ideas???

* For various reasons, this one included, I switched to linux hosting via GoDaddy.
For those using GoDaddyI was able to switch over without any data loss or problems
with my wordpress installation. GoDaddy provides instructions here: [http://help.godaddy.com/article/1285](http://help.godaddy.com/article/1285)
* I hope this helps.

* Thanks friarzero, for the tip about switching to Linux on GoDaddy, I’ve been
told it’s a better operating system. I’ve just implemented the change so I’m
hoping all goes well.

* Anybody know how to correct this? It’s highly irritating. I really want to use
this, but the changes will not save. Looking at the code, I don’t believe there’s
a way to do this manually either.

* Same problem here! Pressing “Save Changes” just takes me back to the main Settings
page. I have the problem with WordPress 2.6 and 2.7. And, same thing happens
with version 2.9.15 and 3.0.6 of Sociable. Happens using IE7 or Firefox 3.
* Can someone PLEASE address this?
