Lots of potential here, but just can't get it to work

Hi guys

I had high hopes for this plugin – it certainly shows lots of potential but unfortunately I just couldn’t get it to work.

Inserting your demo shortcode pulls in your feed as expected.

But using my username in the shortcode, I get 2 blank boxes – one for each of my 2 stories. I tried changing the username to that of the URL, but that doesn’t work either –

username/cats
username/dogs

Does the plugin only work with a single username, and not with separate stories ?

Also, suggestions :
– it would be a useful feature to make the display as minimal as possible – to be able to turn off the text & icons that appear under each entry, and only show the images (and boxed text on hover).
– I would prefer that clicking on an entry took the visitor to the actual source of that info, rather than the storify page.

Thanks, and best wishes for future developments.
