Hi Mitcho,
I upgraded to WordPress version to 3.1.1 and upgraded YARPP to latest version automatically. I use custom template. I got fatal error "Call to a member function get_results() on a non-object in" my template file.
Below is the code,
<?php
$now = gmdate( "Y-m-d H:i:s", time() );
$request = "SELECT ID, post_title, post_excerpt FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_status = 'publish' AND post_password ='' AND post_type='post' AND post_date_gmt < '$now' ORDER BY post_date DESC LIMIT 0, 4";
$posts = $wpdb->get_results( $request );
$default_thumbnail = get_bloginfo('template_url') . '/images/default-image.jpg';
