That worked ??

I think it would be worth your time i.e. less support email like this(!) if you added a little documentation around the process required to get the keys working.

Many thanks for your help.

OK, recreated the root keys (saved!) and the plugin Test frame page is working.

Unfortunately my actual page does not load any reviews for the following insert:
[scrapeazon asin=”1118168445″ width=”500″ height=”400″ border=”false” country=”us”]

I have also tried different country codes…

Any help/pointers much appreciated

Brian

Thanks for update James

It is actually not obvious how to obtain the root keys – Amazon puts up a big warning message saying you should create individual user access and says you should delete the root keys asap.

see: https://www.advanced-web-metrics.com/aws.png

So the root secret key is not available. The plugin settings are now:
Access Key – root-key
secret key – from IAM user

And the plugin naturally does not work with this. How can I proceed from here?

Best regards, Brian

Result:
It gives WordPress a bad name and puts me off ever using the donate button for those developers that deserve it (you)… For example, I often donate $20 for a good plugin. The Stop Spammers one is on my list (honest). But why bother when there is no commitment from it at the other end?

Advice to WP plugin developers:
Simply charge for your work, support it and make a good living. Surely there is a business model for this with so many downloads (200k in this example) and so many rave reviews (90% 4 or 5 stars).?

It really is annoying when developers do this – build a great plugin, give it away for free, then walk away. It gives WordPress a bad name and puts me off ever using the donate button…

Very disappointed with this ecosystem (again!)

Extra validation only

Can you expand on how/where to create the custom filter please

Thanks Mikko – the debug trick worked for me ??

May be mine is a similar problem. I just installed and built the index fine. However all searches return 0 results…

I have had to disable the plugin for now, site is advanced-web-metrics.com/blog

I have the same issue – 0 results for all searches.

BTW, how did you run a test search – I am unable to find this in the Settings area…!

wow – that is actually quite well hidden. Some UX work required there ??

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Resolved: It was a security setting on the server (apache, mod_security)

Looks like the mobile theme is not uploaded when you do an automatic plugin install (i.e. from within WP itself).

Download the zip file directly, unzip and upload the carrington-mobile-VERSION folder to your theme folder and the message should go away.

Seconded

Would love to see this array editable in the settings page…

seconded…

This appears to be related to the use of permalinks i.e. it works without permalinks, but fails if any permalink structure is setup
