Hi guys, 

i just installed the template tag plugin in hope to then display ‘most recent posts’ and newest member inside a sidebar.Unfortunately this didn’t work out and we got this error message instead.

What do I have to do to get it up and running?? 

Cheers

Jan

If you look at that path in the warning you will see that it has created a folder called ‘template-tags1’. Sorry but this is a problem that sometimes crops up with wp installer code we are using, That folder should NOT have the ‘1’ on the end of the name. If you change that it should be OK.

Thank you very much Yellow Swordfish, the error message is gone but how can I add the ‘most recent posts’ & newest member plugin in my sidebar?

Well the recent post comes as a widget which might be the easiest so just set it up on your widgets admin panel.

Newest members? I am not aware of a newest members plugin or template tag. What actually is it you are referring to please?

I would be interested in some additional community widgets as well.  I want to be able to  show on my WordPress homepage who is online (with avatars and a link to their forum profile).  I would also like to show who the 5 last newest members are ((with avatars and a link to their forum profile) in another widget.  That way, we can highlight the community more and bring it out onto the homepage. 

These would be great for a new plugin for you: Community Widgets.  I think a lot of sites would want to upgrade just to get those!   I wanted the recent posts widget for this reason and it convinced me to go for it, instead of fiddling around on my own.

they are displayed in the sidebars like any other wp template tag… either in the wp theme sidebar template file or in a text widget… if you want to use a php template function, your text widget needs to support php…
