    I’m trying to setup wordspew on my site.

    I have the plugin in place and activated, but the instructions seem to be ‘missing’ something. Here are the instructions:

    Now you have to choose where you want the shoutbox to show on your blog. I suggest putting it in your sidebar. To edit the sidebar, go to /wp-content/themes/yourtheme/sidebar.php . Then place this snippet:

    in the template. This php function will print the shoutbox. Generally, follow the convention that other sidebar items use. Never put the function within its own

    tags. Most wordpress sidebars use unordered lists (
    ) to organize their content. You probably want to put it in its own list item. So to do this, you would insert

    Note that after “Then place this snippet:” there’s nothing there! What do I put in my sidebar code to use the shoutbox?

    Thanks in advance.

  • you opened the readme in something that’s stripping php, open readmes with a plain old text editor.

    I can tell you that because I JUST downloaded the plugin, and it clearly gives you the snippit. ??

    <?php jal_get_shoutbox(); ?>

    there’s yet more after that, but rather than paste it all, Ill let you go grab your text editor.
