Thanks Peter!..
i am getting the following message when i try to manage my punky mood .
"could not open XML input".
also i see that my punkymood url is pointing to "punkymood.com" as opposed to "punkymood.net".
note: i have registered @ punkymood.net.

As a result the punkymood icon does not appear on my site.
Am i missng something , kindly advice.

Reply from Peter: If your ID is higher than 6000 (which it should be) then the script should automatically look to punkymoods.net. Also, make sure that the plugin’s folder is writable, and try enabling the setting $punky_nopermission if you are having file access errors.

hi there..
i am trying to use punkymoods plug in in my site.
i have created an account at the "http://www.punkymoods.net/index.php".
i am trying to edit the login details.
// enter your punkymoods login info
$punkyuser = "yourusername";
$punkypassword = "yourpassword";
$punkyid = "this is the part after userid=";

please let me know what should i be using as my "punkyid ".

Reply from Peter: The URL to your mood image is something similar to “http://www.punkymoods.net/usermoods/25/8/25818.jpg” — in that example, 25818 would be your user ID.

I’ve installed this plugin and everything works fine. In the plugin page of wordpress there’s a notice that I should update the plugin to this version
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/widgets/
Must I install this update??
Thank you and I wish a Happy New Year 2011.
btw. I love Punkymoods

Reply from Peter: Happy New Year! There is no update to install.

Hi!I’ve installed the widget for wordpress and when i try to manage the punkymoods, this line appear in top of it.

Warning: set_time_limit() has been disabled for security reasons in /home/a9197360/public_html/wp-content/plugins/widgets/readpunky.php on line 8

I’ve followed the instructions perfectly so i cant imagine what’s wrong…
I’ve tried to change the mood, and apparently it worked but then when i go to my blog, it’s still the same one from the start (the one that was there when i installed the plugin) and when i come back to the manager, it’s still the old one O.O

Any suggestions? =(

Reply from Peter: You could edit the readpunky.php file and comment out the line (add // in front of it). That shouldn’t cause problems in changing the mood — when you check this in the front-end of your site, do a hard browser refresh (CTRL+F5 if you’re using Windows) to reload the mood image.

I seem to be having technical difficulties

Reply from Peter: It would help if you would be more specific. However, from your blog link, it looks like you’ve figured it out.

The code has changed over at Punkymoods, so be sure to update your code after installing the plugin. The user_moods/userid.jpg is now usermoods/11/1/userid.jpg. This needs to be changed in the plugin code and the widget code. (I’m not sure if the 11/1 changes from user to user, so check your punkymood page to be sure.)

Reply from Peter: Thanks for the note. Yes, the “11/1″ part is different for each user, and based on the User ID (“11″ being the thousands and “1″ being the hundreds). When you log in to your account on punkymoods.net or punkymoods.com, it will show you the new code

Ihave aproblem in using Punkymoods can u help me ?? http://shimaasherif.wordpress.com/ Reply from Peter: To use the plugin, you must have a self-hosted WordPress blog (not on wordpress.com). However, if you have signed up for a Punkymoods account, see this video about manually inserting the code. If you have not yet signed up for a Punkymoods account, registration will re-open on March 20th.

Hi Rolling, if you have a wordpress.com account, you cannot use the Punkymoods WordPress plugin. However, you could sign up for a normal account at www.punkymoods.net (although registration is closed until March 20, 2009) and use the code supplied to enter into your WordPress template. There is a slightly old but still relevant demo here.
