I was wondering if you’ll be coming out with an update compatible with the latest version since updates have occurred? I would really like to use the plug-in if you do!?

Thanks!

Good job btw!

Doesn’t look like the plugin works properly with the last two versions of Wordpress.

The date calculations are messed up, causing the ajax update to not work properly when entering a weigh-in for a certain date (it thinks you’re entering for the day prior to what’s listed). It also projects any goal to 1970-01-01. :(

Dude, that’s really cool you’ve made this plugin. I remember reading the Hacker’s Diet like 8 years ago… I too was inspired to lose weight. He made it sound so simple, not easy. But I always thought the spreadsheets were hard to use. One thing I still have because of what John Walker wrote is a scale that has 1/10 precision. LOL. I need to lose weight again. I’m going to try out your plugin on my word press blog.

Thanks!

Makkus / Chuck:

Displaying the chart on the frontside of the blog is really simple. The charts are just images, so you can literally just grab the url for the chart you want, and put it in a post or on a page like you would any other image url.

Check out http://mywastedlife.com/progress for an example.

Keith, Thanks for the great pluggin!

“Is it possible to display the graphs in an article on the frontside in the blog?…. ”

Actually, I came to ask the same thing. My family is using this to track ourselves & encourage each other (there’s about 7 or 8 so far, maybe more later), and it’d be GREAT for us to see each others charts (or just the amount they lost since starting). I would even be willing to help develop it if it’s not too hard.

there should be no issues with running it locally.

your browser is probably disabling javascript for localhost. make sure it is enabled.

Do you know of a reason maybe it wouldn’t work on a local installation?

I have Wordpress installed on my personal computer (with apache and php) and I put in the Hacker’s Diet as well. All the pages load, but when I click on a date to add in the weight, it doesn’t turn into a text bar.

Sorry if this was brought up sometime earlier. I haven’t found any comments relating to it. I’ve always been very bad at searching terms, though.
