Didn't work out of the box for me and thought I would let anyone interested know how I got it working.
While changing every option on the options page trying to get this to work I noticed that the quotes at the bottom of the page worked so I just copied that into the widget's section (which is what I was using to show the quotes) and it worked.
Basically, you add 'ABSPATH . WPINC, 0' to the 'fortunate()' function call.
So this...
function fortunate_widget($args) {
extract($args);
echo $before_widget
. $before_title . get_option('fortunate_title') . $after_title
. fortunate() . $after_widget;
}
...becomes this...
function fortunate_widget($args) {
extract($args);
echo $before_widget
. $before_title . get_option('fortunate_title') . $after_title
. fortunate(ABSPATH . WPINC, 0) . $after_widget;
}
Hope that helps someone.
