Same problem here.
I installed Wordspew on my WP 2.0.2.
I have managed to change $user_alias to $user_identity, but more needs to be done.
Now I try to analyze the JS with alert-boxes. Quite fun. 🙂
Sinse the “Latest Message 5 minutes ago” is updated, I think the problem might be the FAT-thing preventing the text to show up. I could gladly live without it.
TA-DA!!!! I found the soultion on a forum.
My WP lives on an IIS-server. IIS does’nt understand ‘REQUEST_URI’.
So after replacing all REQUEST_URI with SCRIPT_NAME it started to work.
Somewhat, atleast. My next concern is to find out why I have to comment out these rows:
// @mysql_query(“SET CHARACTER SET ‘utf8′”);
// @mysql_query(“SET NAMES utf8”);
The solution for the last one was to replace the two rows so it looks like this:
// @mysql_query(“SET CHARACTER SET ‘utf8′”);
// @mysql_query(“SET NAMES utf8”);
$wpdb->hide_errors();
$results = $wpdb->get_results(“SET CHARACTER SET ‘utf8′”);
$results = $wpdb->get_results(“SET NAMES utf8”);
$results = $wpdb->get_results(“SELECT * FROM “.$jal_table_prefix.”liveshoutbox ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT “.$jal_number_of_comments);
$wpdb->show_errors();
I’m not interested in the results, but as not being a real programmer I made a working solution. 🙂
