It installed properly, but it isn’t working properly. It displays this string after each article that I post, I can’t use it this way. Any suggestions? This is what happens with this example post:

I found this hack to fix it for WordPress 2.5 which worked with my WordPress 2.7.1 — when no other fixes did.

Someone wrote a fix for 2.7 version here: http://www.argee.org/tuts/fixing-the-popularity-contest-plugin/

I am yet to try it.

I have just installed the plugin on my WP 2.7 without having any problem at all.

I have not used it with 2.7 yet simply because I am reluctant to upgrade for fear of losing my theme and my plugins (not all of them work with 2.7).

I’d love to see someone take this over.

I’m using this plugin and not aware of this problem. Maybe, too much plugin installed.

I got it working as well simply by activating it twice. It failed the first time on the bulk plugin activation I ran, but then worked the second time.
