Just thought I would quickly sum up how to use the Flattr shortcode for a ‘thing’ that you have already added to flattr.com. It is really simple, all you need to do is set the “url” variable! Nothing else needs to be set (unless you want to customise the btn type).

Okay so one of the previous builds (0.1.1) might have been a little unstable. It was all caused after I got into the WordPress Plugin Directory. I was having difficulty getting used to how the svn system worked and it resulted in me uploading an unstable build without testing it! This latest build has been tested and double tested for all the previous bugs I had and I am now happy to say that I just updated to build 0.1.4 and that it is bug free as far as I know!

To also help reduce future problems I am going to set up a private testing blog that I can use to test plugins without giving this site downtime!
