 * joshua,
 * i like the plugin, however it seems to be prone to sql injection.
    there are 
   easy ways to prevent this – like [http://at1.php.net/pdo.prepared-statements](http://at1.php.net/pdo.prepared-statements)
 * or at least
    using mysql_real_escape_string
 * you get a chance to update your plugin?
 * thanks

 * Hello,
 * I’m curious of how this is actually SQL injectable. I tried few against my wordpress
   and none of those worked. I have a testing server going to production and would
   really like to test this before.
