Love run-for-cover, but like others got the RunForCover not found error. seems this was due to the javascript file not being in the place where the widget was looking. I copied the js file to my plugins folder. All is good now.

Now I’m looking for a new web host – one who offers PHP 5

Thomas, Anuvrat, I have sent my working copy to the WordPress page at

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/run-for-cover/download/

You can try downloading the development version. Still a bit rough, it works ok I guess. It displays an image of the artist if no cd cover was found. I look forward to hear from you if it works for you!

Even I am facing the same problem. The firefox error console says RunForCover is not defined. Can you fix it?

Hi again,

I’ve commented out the offending “try/catch” and tried again. This time it correctly activates but then there’s a javascript error stating: RunForCover is not defined. This occurs around when the jQuery is fired.

All the best,
Thomas Vanparys

Thomas, good catch (pun intended)! It’s fixed in 2.0.3, I just published it.

Hi,

I’ve turned to “Run for cover” (2.0.2) as my host does not provide PHP5 support. I understood that this plugin caters to hosts with PHP4 support. My web host runs IIS with PHP 4.4.8. .

When I tried activating the plugin I got a critical error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘{‘ in \\SERVER\home\users\thomasvanparys\wp-content\plugins\run-for-cover\runforcover.php on line 196

From a quick look at the code this is due to a “try/catch” construct which is not available in PHP4.

Is this something you could look to solve?

Thanks,
Thomas V.
