Peter – this plugin only pulls public shared feeds. It would be possible to use the API to retrieve protected items but considerably more difficult.

Hi Jake.

I am trying to have a site with my shared google reader items, but they are protected, I just want to share them with some people and not public.

Is there a way to do this with the plugin ?

The idea is that I can pull all the protected shared items with my credentials and setup a site that I can grant access to the users I want to see the content and not everyone.

Kind of it works right now in google reader, but porting it to a site.

Any advice ?

Thanks.

There’s a big update *slowly* in the works (it is a spare time / free endeavor), but I’m planning to release an update that at least fixes the outdated account / ID verification and any WordPress 3.0 bugs within the next week or so.

Jake,

Love the idea of this plugin, would you comment on its working on WordPress v3.0, or when you plan on that being supported?

Thanks!

Any idea on when this will support Wordpress v. 3.0+?

Hi Jake,

First off, what a great plugin! I’ve been using it for quite a while but have been having some trouble with it lately. It loads correctly about 60-70% of the time, but intermittently it shows the following message:

“No Google Reader feed was found with the provided ID. Please validate the ID in plug-in configuration.”

I’ve tried debugging the site (e.g. using Tim’s suggestion above and deactivating plugins) but to no avail. Has anyone had any success in pinpointing the cause?

Cheers,
Aggi

Hi Noah – not sure what the issue is, but guessing it’s a styling / CSS issue with your particular theme and the output of the short code.

The fact that its works when you’re logged in makes me wonder if there’s a caching plugin getting in the way, however…

Hi Jake-

Just installed your Recommended Reading plug-in today, love the concept.
However, I’m having mixed results in terms of function.

To display the Google Reader shared feed, I created a new page called “Newswire” and inserted [RecReader] as instructed.

In the preview screen, everything looks fabulous as long as I’m logged-in as “Admin”. However, once I log-out of WP, the content of my sidebar widgets get pushed down the page into the body. Very strange situation and I’m not sure how to fix it.

Any solutions would be most appreciated!
FYI, I’m running WordPress 2.9.2. with Thesis theme version 1.6.

Cheers-

Geoffrey – can you send me a link to your shared feed?
