    Thanks so much for updating your plugins asap! There’s an error on line 464 in sociable.php. I’m getting it while activating the plugin. removing “;” at the end of the line fixes it.

    Thanks again,

    Dmitriy

    I also got that error, fixed it myself, but still get this when I go to the settings page:

    Couldn’t find wp-content/plugins folder. Please make sure WordPress is installed correctly.

    In your plugins/sociable folder, you must have these files:
    ___list of files___

      Have you uploaded all the files, including the images? This sounds like a broken upgrade…

        I’ve discovered that it’s due to chdir being a disabled function on my server. I’m not really sure, but I think you can update the plugin to not use chdir. Ofcourse, this is a specific condition that probably not alot of people will have, so it probably isn’t worth your time. I can fix this manually myself.

    This is a test comment.

    I also had the same problem, but as I was writing this comment, the sociable plug-in activated properly.
    Good stuff.

    Hi Joost,

    It’s not your plugin, but you mention it in your WordPress SEO article. The plugin PagerFix doesn’t work with my WordPress 2.7 installation. It gives an error when editing the php files through the WordPress admin panel.

    Thanks for all the great information on this weblog!

      I agree with Frank, thanks for all the great info, tips, and articles!

    • Joost de ValkBy Joost de Valk on 14 December, 2008

      Hey Frank, keep watching this blog, I happen to know a new version of that plugin will be released shortly :)

    When you converted to wordpress 2.7 which of your plugins malfunctioned?

    • Joost de ValkBy Joost de Valk on 14 December, 2008

      Well John, none did, except for 1 minor bug in my own library of plugins, which I fixed.

    Hey Joost,
    I’m getting the following error in the dashboard widget:

    Warning: array_slice() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given in /home/xxxxx/public_html/xxxxxx/wp-content/plugins/sociable/yoast-posts.php on line 43

    Doesn’t affect the functionality, but looks kind of ugly :)

    • DmitriyBy Dmitriy on 13 December, 2008

      and now that error is gone. hmm

      • Joost de ValkBy Joost de Valk on 14 December, 2008

        Yeah that was fixed in an update.

  8. WesleyBy Wesley on 13 December, 2008

    Another error (or maybe it’s just me again :)), disabling sociable for a specific post or page (page in my case) had no effect. It stays displayed on my site.

    • WesleyBy Wesley on 13 December, 2008

      Oh, wait a sec.. if I use the custom fields to change this, it works as expected. But I also see a checkbox at the bottom of the page, which does not work.

      • Joost de ValkBy Joost de Valk on 14 December, 2008

        Yeah I know, hate it, but I’ll be fixing it soon(ish).

          • Joost de ValkBy Joost de Valk on 15 December, 2008

            Looks like you’ve got the plugin twice now. Delete the directory and install it again completely, something went wrong.

          • DoogiewaterBy Doogiewater on 15 December, 2008

            I deleted All then tried to re-install through Dashboad…
