I installed your plugin to my site but got this message. Is the problem that it is not compatible with wordpress 2.9 yet?
Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or ‘}’ in /…/wp-content/plugins/hgk-feedback-form/hgk-feedback-form.php on line 13

Mike,

The plugin is written with security in mind. And it does not modify content of the blog itself, instead it sends user submission via email.

I love the plugin!Very easy to implement and looks great.

A friend suggested that it might be a security risk though if the input isn’t sanitized (Stripped of escape codes, etc). Otherwise hackers may be able to insert malicious code via the feedback form.

So my question is… Is the input sanitized or is that a concern?

Hi Buddy, Nice plugin…Small suggestion, Instead being a link fron side menu, can you make it some thing like floating right corner of every page with on and off option….What i mean is if you check the Chitika.com webiste, you always see a comment or feedback form on right down corner of every page of the website, with one click show, another click hide option. Can you make this with using ajax tool, then its really looks cool and every one like…
thanks

I don’t know If I said it already but …Great site…keep up the good work. I read a lot of blogs on a daily basis and for the most part, people lack substance but, I just wanted to make a quick comment to say I’m glad I found your blog. Thanks,

A definite great read..Jim Bean

Thank you Katy for catching that. I have updated the post to fix formatting and eliminate confusion.

I just figured out what was wrong! On the plugin’s website, it says to use “” which doesn’t work. However, using “” as you just mentioned in your email, does! Works great — and much better than the form I was using before! Thanks!

Please make sure that when you insert this magic comment, you do it in HTML Editor (more on WordPress editors here: Visual Versus HTML Editor). Otherwise '<' and '>' symbols will be transformed into HTML escape sequences and HGK Feedback Form will not see the comment to replace with a form. Hope this helps!

I have another contact form on my site that’s not very nimble. I tried replacing it with your plug in. It does not show up on my site. I put the old code back in. Do you know if your code has conflicts with other plugins, or any other reason why it would not show up?

THANK YOU!
Katy
