I like the widget, but is there a way to display it as page content instead of a widget?

I just wanted to warn/alert you to the fact that the WordPress plug-in catalog lists showcase as being compatible with 2.7.x, but version 2.2 utilizes the new widget class (WP_Widget) added under WordPress 2.8.x.

Hi, I’m excited to use this widget but have a problem with it. I’ve done all the widget set-up, confirmed Amazon credentials, added it to the sidebar widgets, but all that shows up is the title. No books or anything else. When that didn’t work I tried to plug the javascript into a Samsarin PHP plug-in and that didn’t work either (no title at all). I then tried to use the code for inserting into pages and posts and that didn’t work either. Nothing showed up.

I’m not getting any error messages. The plug-in just isn’t functioning. I’m on the WP version prior to 2.8. I’d really just like the sidebar widget to function. Spent more than an hour trying to troubleshoot it. Can’t figure it out!

Hi Aaron,

The widget looks great – but i’m having issues installing it. It gives me an error of “Amazon Showcase requires access to hash_hmac()/sha256.” .. whatever that means.

Although the plugin is shown as installed; I don’t see it under my settings list either.

Any help or tips your could provide would be great. Love the idea of the plugin. I’m just looking to add a list of books i’ve read.

Thanks,
~ Umbreen

I’ve recently experienced this plugin (WHICH I LOVE) going “dead” on several of my blogs … is there a compatibility problem with 2.8.5?

I have this hashing algorithm installed, yet this same message, Amazon Showcase requires access to hash_hmac()/sha256, shows up. Any ideas?
