 * Hi,
 * The same problem. The new version doesn’t ok!
    I use the widget but i can’t add
   a new text, and the old message doesn’t work. When i try it’s write “No announcement
   available. Please check this group GROUP1”
 * Because i can’t add nothing in the group1.
 * I need the old version!

 * Hi, here is a helpful tip in case anyone else is running into this problem. in
   addition to needing to restart the plugin, I found another issue that causes 
   it to give the “no announcments” message. If you copied and pasted the php code
   from the developer’s website you have this.
 * <?php newannouncement( $group = “GROUP2″ ); ?>
 * This does not work because of the smart quotes. If you change it to this:
 * <?php newannouncement( $group = “GROUP2” ); ?>
 * It starts working fine. Hope this helps andyone

   its working

 * Deactivated plugin, exited wp admin, restarted and reactivated then it works.
   Go figure.

 * HillTactical´s method worked. The developers website converts normal “”” quotes
   to smart quotes “″“″ and that will not work.
 * So, if you copied the code from the developer site you will have to change it
   from:
    <?php newannouncement( $group = “GROUP1″ ); ?>
 * To:
    <?php newannouncement( $group = “GROUP1” ); ?>
 * Look at the quotes around GROUP1 and you will understand.

 * My marquee does not work in Safari! Is this because of the update? or am I missing
   something?
