 * Hi,
 * great plugin idea. However, after installing it, my complete WP system crashed.
   Maybe an incompatibility with the sidebar wigdet management of my K2 Theme?
 * However, the complete System is down. Any help how to fix this would be greatly
   appreciated.

 * OK, helped myself by renaming the sideposts folder. Unfortunately, I can’t deactivate
   the sideposts plugin because it’s shown as “not active” in the menu. So I seem
   to have fragments of an improper installation in my WP system now 🙁

 * Have you tried to delete the plugin’s folder?
    This deactivates the plugin in
   case of errors and site should run perfect. Will test with K2 theme.

 * Problem Solved in version 1.0
    Download the new version which has been tested
   with the theme K2 RC6.
 * Yes, it was a problem when using the custom sidebars for the K2 Theme, wich disables
   some Widget Control functions.

 * Great! I’m sure I’ll love your plugin. Since years I’m looking for an elegant
   solution to host a media news sidestream inside my blog. Thanks very much.

 * This was a problem with the theme which disables non plugable functions from 
   WordPress when using his very own SideBars. Specially those used in recent versions
   to register the Widgets.
 * From the upcoming Sideposts 1.5, only WordPress native functions will be supported.
   So, test it before using on a live site when not using the WordPress Native SideBar.
 * On this cases, the plugin will not load nor activate to prevent site crashes.
