JCAlexander, thanks for the mention of Tweetview – I’ve installed it on my blog and it’s working fine.
Thanks for your help, esmi! That probably should have worked but for some reason didn’t (very possibly operator error). However, going into my file directory, I found the akismet folder in a temp file in an upgrade folder and was able to move it to the plugin folder, and the plugin now shows. Thanks again!
