 * Hey James,
 * You’ll need to log into your site using an FTP app and delete the plugin manually.
   Not sure what happened here, but that’s the quick fix to get back into your site.
 * Do you already have BuddyPress activated?

 * Hey,
    Can you show me how you’re using the shortcode? I can’t think of any reason
   it should display the shows in reverse order unless its something with the feed.
   Are you using the future shows feed?
 * Ideally, you’d use the “XML Feed URL for Future Shows” under the Direct Links
   section. The other one (closer to the top) has issues. Not sure if that fixes
   your issue or not.
 * If you could email me your feed URL, I’ll test it on my end too. chris at slushman

 * Actually, its the other way around. By default, plugin settings remain in the
   database until they are explicitly deleted. That’s what the uninstall.php file
   is commonly used to do – delete the plugin settings when the plugin is deleted
   from the site.
 * I don’t use uninstall.php in the current version, but I don’t remember off the
   top of my head when the plugin settings get deleted, if it at all. I know when
   a widget is selected from the plugin settings, the plugin then activates the 
   widget and creates the appropriate profile fields. And it removes those profile
   fields when the widget is unchecked in the plugin settings. But like I said, 
   I don’t remember doing anything with the plugin settings as far as removing them
   from the database.
 * I’m planning to rewrite the plugin using the WordPress Plugin Boilerplate at 
   some point. At which time, I’ll definitely add removing the settings in the uninstall.
   php, but I don’t believe its there currently.

 * hey rezon8,
 * Yes, when you deactivate the plugin the links disappear. It was the best way 
   I could put together to manage the field creation with junking up people’s profiles
   with extra fields.
 * I’ll add the plugin settings retention to my next iteration of the plugin though.
   That should be fairly standard stuff and I’m not sure why that would change when
   the plugin is merely deactivated.
 * I do maintain the plugin and it should still work with the current versions of
   WordPress and BuddyPress. I don’t always update the README to reflect that status
   though. 🙂

 * Hmm. These widgets should only appear on the profile pages and the profiles don’t
   have a separate sidebar. As far as I know, the only thing to do would be to reorder
   these widgets so they appear int he correct place on the profile pages.
 * Anything else would require tweaking the theme to make a new sidebar. But really,
   if you put them in the right order on the sidebar, it should just make the page
   taller, assuming the theme allows for that.
 * Does that make sense?

 * Hmm. I’ve signed up for an account and put in a test URL and I see what you mean.
 * Where is the Profile Video Widget though? The URL field itself won’t do anything
   with the video URL other than save it in the database. The Profile Video Widget
   is where the video is actually displayed. When you put the widget on a sidebar,
   it grabs the URL from that field and displays the video.

 * Hey Scott,
    So when I use this feed: [http://artistdata.sonicbids.com/gary-stockdale/shows/xml/future](http://artistdata.sonicbids.com/gary-stockdale/shows/xml/future)
   everything works for me. ArtistData changed their feed URLs a while back, I think
   when they got bought by Sonicbids. The new ones are the “Direct” ones found at
   the bottom half of the Data Feeds page on the Tools tab. Use the new one and 
   you should be good to go. Slushman

 * I believe this was an issue with the URL being used. For SoundCloud, use the 
   URL for a set or a single song. The SoundCloud appears via oEmbed, which is built
   into WordPress. You won’t be able to use your profile URL since there isn’t an
   oEmbed-able player at that URL. Also, don’t use the mobile version of any SoundCloud
   URL. Closing ticket.
