    When I try to update the custom message or add an RSS feed, it’s not saving the changes. I have the file writable at 666.

    Are you using the correct syntax? I just added a feed and it worked fine. Use

    FEED_URL`NAME_OF_FEED`

    Be sure to use back ticks.

    Beyond that I don’t know. Your best bet is to contact the developer.

    Thanks, still not working, I’ll contact developer.

    There was a problem in the code, so there is a new release.

    make the following edit inside dashboardopts.php:

    Find the line:

    'show_technorati_feed' $dashboard_userlevel_guard )

    and change it to:

    'show_technorati_feed'= $dashboard_userlevel_guard )

    There was a bug in the code with the $user_level check

    Take note that this isn’t a strict plugin… it requires a lot of hacking to work.
