    When I first activate the plugin it works, but when I refresh my blog’s page it fails and I get the “No public messages” message.

    If I deactivate then reactivate it works. Then I refresh and it fails again.

    My tweets are less than 24hrs old and I’m on WP 2.7.1.

    It looks great when it’s working, so I’m hoping there’s an explanation/fix on the way….

    ** Edit: Looks like Twitter was down when the plugin was failing for me before. I tried to log in and got the fail whale.

    So maybe the message in the plugin is what’s making people (including me) think that the plugin is failing? “No public messages” is technically correct, but if the reason for that is because Twitter’s down then perhaps should the message be something along the lines of “Twitter is down” instead?

    Go to your theme’s functions.php file and add <h2> to before_title, and </h2> to after_title. Then style the <h2> in your stylesheet.

    (You could use any tag – p, h3, h4 etc)

    Hope that helps.

    All – I couldn’t follow the php babble in the codex either, and agree that Otto42 was not particularly helpful.

    However, I did manage to figure out a workaround:

    1. Go to Blogroll > Add Link.
    2. Add a new category. Name it as whatever you want to appear in the sidebar, eg Feeds I read.
    3. Go to Manage Blogroll.
    4. Edit the category for each link and change to your new category.
    5. Use the standard wp_list_bookmarks code in your sidebar (<code><?php wp_list_bookmarks('title_after=&title_before='); ?>)

    Enjoy!
