 * I don’t know! I mean, on that page it says “Remove Query Arg from Media URLs ?_
   =1”.
    It says “This plugin is ideal for the following reasons etc.” but there’s
   no download link.
 * I found the page by searching those keywords and apparently it’s the only meaningful
   resource I found about removing the query string ?_=1 that is added by WordPress
   to media URLs in HTML5 audio and video mediaelement.js players.
 * From there I found this support forum that is run by the same guy that runs pluginspodcast.

   social buttons? And possibly whit a working Pinterest button, I was never able
   to get the one in this plugin to properly load the right images.

 * Thank you esmi for your help, I have no idea what’s going on, I stripped the 
   theme to its bare minimum and still, when the ID argument is there widgets won’t
   work!!!
 * I tried it on both locally and on my server but this thing is driving me nuts.

 * That is what I’m doing, I see I wasn’t clear on my reply, just now I registered
   only one sidebar like this:
 *     ```
       if(function_exists('register_sidebar')) {
       	register_sidebar(array(
       		'before_widget' => '<div class="widget">',
       		'after_widget' => '</div>',
       		'before_title' => '<h3 class="wtitle">',
       		'after_title' => '</h3>'
       	));
   
       }
       ```
   
 * and it’s working fine but as soon as I add the ID argument it stops working.

 * I think so, in index.php I call it with get_sidebar() and get_sidebar(‘leftsidebar’)
   the rest of the theme is very basic.
 * I’m scratching my head over this :\
 * P.S. I found another post where someone had the same problem but in his case 
   he used underscores in the ID, the problem was solved by replacing them with 
   hyphens.

 * I started having the same problem a couple of days ago, I don’t think is a problem
   with the plugin, I tried to get the code directly from facebook and even there
   I get only a line with five fb users.
 * If I find something useful I’ll post.

 * I know that plugin but I need more control at a theme design level, I was thinking
   about a custom function.
 * To be more specific, I’m getting the excerpt to output as previous/next link 
   but I’m limited to,well, a single previous/next post, while I need at least 2
   older posts and 2 newer posts, so that plugin is not of much use in this case
   but thanks anyway.

 * mmm, I’m not sure I understand your answer, I mean I “know” about conditional
   tags and I use them to show posts from categories and so on but couldn’t find
   anything about category description or I missed it…
 * how would i know and test if a category has a description or not?
 * In my case (my php skills are somewhat limited) I just guessed that
 * if category_description was equal to nothing (”) do this else do something else.
 * The way I have it now it’s working but i’m not sure if is the right way to do
   it :-\

 * Thats why I’m going insane, I move the mouse until I see the pointing finger 
   and let it go but as soon as I click the link it moves around. I tried with an
   optical mouse, a trackball, my wacom tablet and so far the best thing that works
   is clicking like there’s no tomorrow, eventually the the widget opens.
 * That little gif is just a example of what’s going on, I was so mad today… I mean,
   it’s not the end of the world, but something as simple and brainless as a click
   becomes frustrating.
