   You misspelled "dashboard" in the 1.5 version of the plugin, just so you know. Great job, though.

   Also, in Dr. Dave's WP plugin manager, the link to directions is given as http://mattread.com/archives/2004/09/wp-admin-bar-2/, which brings up your excellent 404 page.

   Thank you Anonymous. I've fixed the spelling and the 404 link. You should upgrade to 2.1 for the fixed spelling.

    2005-03-25T20:05:39-05:00 EST

    Umm question. Why can't I edit the php file now? I wanted to edit the CSS for it, yet it will not allow me to download it; permission denied. Tried CMODing it - no luck. Tried changing permissions on the file via my cPanel - no luck. Even tried uninstalling it via WP Plugin Manager, then manually installing it.. but everytime I try to manually install it, it brings up an error with Line 76 on it (which is the margin code line in CSS on it).

    It works IF I have it installed via the WP Plugin Manager, but then I am unable to edit, download, or change the file in any way. Is this some bug issue with the install via WP Plugin Manager?? Any help would be appreciated Have a good weekend otherwise.

    It doesn't seem to work with the theme "Random Image". I suspect this is due to the header_graphic funtion in the head. Since I've done lots of customizing, I think I'm committed to that theme. Too bad, your plugin is awesome.

    A simple, yet very useful plugin.

    An idea for the next release is to allow the menu to be translated, using the __() function. In fact, I did it in my site and it didn't took me more than 5 minutes.
