 * I really need to get this plugin working..
 * Keep getting error msgs such as:
    – Log folder ‘/public_html/wp-content/backwpup-
   dd595-logs/’ does not exists! – Log folder ‘/public_html/wp-content/backwpup-
   dd595-logs/’ is not writeable!
 * The folder actually do exist. I’ve tried to change permission to 775 and 777 (
   although I dont like it) but the error persists.
 * I’ve deleted the folder and re-created it with my FTP client but the error msg
   won’t go away.
 * Any clue what I can do?
 * I had the same problem with error msg that the ‘tmp’ folder was missing, but 
   I changed the permission to 777 and error went away.

 * Mr Swede, I wanted to say think you so much for your code so I could finally 
   put the nng tags in the sidebar and have the a gallery open in the same page!
   I’ve been looking and looking, finally used the rght search terms and got your
   fix. [http://goo.gl/7l8WLr](http://goo.gl/7l8WLr)
 * Next is to be able to do a muti-select, maybe a checkmark next to each keyword.
   Any ideas? 😉
 * Many thanks again!!
