 * I am having the same error. The fixes I’ve seen require more coding than I’m 
   comfortable doing myself, and all advise contacting the plugin author:

 * Get a clue, Sociable. I need Classic not Skyscraper, need Pinterest, and rather
   than hacking your plugin, being out of time and patience, have gone over to Shareaholic./
   May/ check back on this later, but probably not. How hard would it be to add 
   it to Classic considering you already have added it to Skyscraper?? Fnyeh to 
   that.
 * (Yeah, I know it’s a “free” plugin and all that; still, it’s your brand. You’d
   think you’d be paying attention.)

 * Hi Ruthie,
 * This plugin doesn’t appear to have its own stylesheet, but using Firebug I found
   a class of .ngg-sidebar-widget and was able to add a border to my image. I’m 
   using a child theme based on twenty-eleven, and this is the code that worked 
   for me, just added it to my child’s stylesheet:
 *     ```
       .ngg-sidebar-widget a img {
       border: 1px solid #ddd;
       padding: 6px;
       }
       ```
   
 * Hope that helps!

 * I should add that this is a backup I’ve manually kicked off since I just installed
   the plugin for the first time, and the first scheduled backup has not run yet.
   Not sure if that would make any difference…

 * Hi Michael,
 * I am experiencing the same issues: the backup never completes — seems to never
   get past the SQL backup stage. I just get the following (below). Any ideas when
   the problem might be resolved? I would really love to use your plugin!
 * Thank you!

 * Thank you. I’ve fiddled with it quite a bit, and only recently have it working
   pretty well. There are 3 parts:
 * 1. Twenty eleven already has theme support for post thumbnails, so I didn’t need
   to enable that. But I did register an image size in functions.php (child theme):
 *     ```
       add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'my_child_theme_setup' );
       	function my_child_theme_setup() {
       		// Sets the dimensions and hard crops thumbnails displayed in excerpts
       		add_image_size('excerpt-thumb', 140, 140, true);
       	}
       ```
   
 * (in part from this article [at wpbeginner](http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-create-additional-image-sizes-in-wordpress/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+wpbeginner+%28WordPress+for+Beginners%29))
 * 2. In content.php (a child theme copy), between the header and footer section,
   I modified the loop to show the excerpt and the excerpt-thumb on all pages except
   single posts:
 *     ```
       <?php if ( ! is_single() ) : // Display excerpts for all pages except single posts ?>
       	<div class="entry-summary">
       		<div class="excerpt-thumb">
       			<?php the_post_thumbnail( 'excerpt-thumb', 'class=alignleft'); ?></div>
       		<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
       	</div><!-- .entry-summary -->
       	<?php else : ?>
       	<div class="entry-content">
       		<?php the_content( __( 'Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">→</span>', 'twentyeleven' ) ); ?>
       		<?php wp_link_pages( array( 'before' => '<div class="page-link"><span>' . __( 'Pages:', 'twentyeleven' ) . '</span>', 'after' => '</div>' ) ); ?>
       	</div><!-- .entry-content -->
       	<?php endif; ?>
       ```
   
 * (Most of that came from various Twenty Eleven topics here in the forum, but I’ve
   lost track of which ones specifically)
 * 3. And the final step was to use the Simple Image Sizes plugin (ver 2.1) as mentioned
   in that wpbeginner article. I found that plugin worked better for me than the
   Regenerate Thumbnails plugin. After installing and activating the plugin, adjust
   settings in the Settings > Media section of the dashboard. The plugin finds all
   the image sizes that are registered for the theme. In mine, I have these along
   with these settings:
 *     ```
       Thumbnail size: 140 x 140 check Crop
       Medium size: 300 x 300
       Large size: 1024 x 1024
       Size excerpt-thumb: 140 x 140 check Crop check Show in Post Insertion
       Size post-thumbnail: 1000 x 288 check Crop check Show in Post Insertion
       Size large-feature: 1000 x 288 check Crop check Show in Post Insertion
       Size small-feature: 500 x 300 check Crop check Show in Post Insertion
       ```
   
 * Most of those already exist with Twenty Eleven; the new one I registered in functions.
   php (excerpt-thumb) was added to the list. After adjusting the settings, I clicked“
   update” on each, then ran Ran “regenerate” on thumbnail, medium, large, excerpt-
   thumb, and small-feature for posts and pages. This updated all the images I already
   had loaded in my theme. Any new post images will be handled according to the 
   settings.
 * I hope this helps!
