 * hello all,
   I am currently helping my Department to prepare a webpage of my Department
   from scratch.I am using the template which others Department have used.No department
   has this Ditty plugin installed and so we can’t learn from experience here unfortunately.
   When talking our University web admin (he usually handles all this and has also
   no clue why Ditty is not working) mentioned to me that i need to write here that“
   our wordpress system has got the special version and special config.php codes.”
   So if someone can help – please let me know which more specifications/informations
   you need from me to help in this matter. Some help on this regard would be much
   appreciated because I am stuck. best regards,AbhiPS: I have recently used this
   plugin without any problem for my personal research website.

 * Thanks for contacting me. Unfortunately, I don’t know what the “special version
   or config.php codes” is. Can you provide any insight into that? Also, if you 
   can provide a screencast, screenshots, or more information in regards to how 
   you are setting up your Ditty and where and how you are trying to display it,
   that would help give me some direction on this.

 * Hello,
   Thank you once more for taking this up. Our Versiyon of wordpress is 4.9.8
 * This is the stable version for our (University) theme. Also, Our all php files
   has got the static codes and all of the web pages use these php files. So, we
   can not change our php codes unfortunately.
   Could you still help to see why Ditty
   is not working ?And do you need any more specific information ?best regards,Abhi

 * I can try helping but will still need some more information. I checked the page
   you originally linked and am not seeing any reference to Ditty in the source 
   code. Please answer the following questions and that will help me proceed with
   troubleshooting this:
    1. Check your plugins screens and ensure Ditty is still activated.
    2. Are you using a Ditty post, or a legacy Ditty News Ticker post?
    3. Please confirm that Ditty you are trying to display still exists in your admin.
    4. Can you link to a screenshot of how the Ditty is being added to your site? It
       sounds like you are hard-coding the DItty into your theme files, but since I
       am not seeing any reference to it in your source code, make sure that still 
       exists.
    5. Please take some screenshots of the edit screen of your Ditty/DNT within the
       admin of your site.
 * Thank you!
