We need the "DOM" section of your phpinfo() show "enabled"-values. = There's an error message like "ERROR: domdocument::domdocument() expects 2 parameter to be long" = Disable the `domxml` extension of your php installation. `domxml` is a legacy extension introduced for php4 which lacks cool dom-functions. But in php5 they are built in and - guess what - **incompatible** with the old extension. So we rely on the new bright and shiny built-in functions. = Can I use this plugin without a widget? = Unfortunately this is not possible. As all options are set on a per-widget basis, there is no way to display a list without a widget. = Can you translate the plugin to language [insert-your-language] = No... but: **You can!** Just have a look at the translation files and/or contact me for further instructions. == Other Notes == The *format of dates and times* are part of the translation files. Let me know if this should be another user-editable option.
