 * I highly appreciate your effort for creating the plugin.
    If you may, I want 
   to make a request.
 * I used this code:<?php echo do_shortcode(“[skill percent=”75″ title=”Wordpress”
   bar_foreground=”#f00″ bar_background=”#eee”]”); ?> in my index.php template. 
   But, nothing happened except my theme getting crashed every time I inserted the
   code in my index.php template.
 * So, please tell me how can I run the shortcode in my index.php template.
 * Thanks in advance.

 * Okay check for the latest version now.
 * By the way directly try to paste it in the content and call the content in index.
   php should be better so that you don’t have to echo the shortcode but directly
   paste the shortcode.
