I stand corrected… the bug didnt have anything to do with the mail function.

On line 131 of the plugin code, there is this

<?
	if ( $cnt % 3 == 2 ) echo '</tr>';
    }
 ?>

My server requires php tags to use this <?php ... ?>
It was the only instance of the lack of the “php”. The plugin works fine otherwise, thanks.

I installed it on a different server whose primary difference is that the PHP mail function is working properly. I can’t be sure but i think because your plugin forces you to sign up for your newsletter before activation it is choking if the mail function doesn’t work……

Hi–
Upon plugin activation i get this error at the top of the plugins admin page:

PHP Parse error: parse error in E:\[omitted]\wp-content\plugins\front-page-by-category-2\front-page-by-category.php on line 405

This might be the answer

I just ran into the same extra line break issue when pasting in code. Were you ever able to resolve this issue? I’m going to be pasting in a lot of ‘tidy’ code….
