 * When you are running wordpress on localhost this plugin is not working. The following
   modification to the code fixes the problem:
    Change ` if ( preg_match("/\d{1,3}\.\
   d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}/", $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']))  at the beginning of the 
   code to  if ( preg_match("/\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}/", $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'])
   || !strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'], '.'))
 * Hope this helps.
 * Thanks and Regards
    KD
