FAQ

How do I uninstall the plugin?

Inactivate the plugin and remove the php-line added in the template. If you want you can also remove the Custom Field.

How come the feed isnt showing?

You might have forgotten to add the line of php <?php if (function_exists('gowalla_spotter')) gowalla_spotter(); ?> or there is an error in it. Also check that you have a working Spot ID from Gowalla.
