[...] got a nice new widget in my sidebar that displays my Gamertag details, it’s simply called the Xbox 360 Gamercard Wordpress plugin. It doesn’t come as a widget, so I’m using another plugin to use it as a widget, [...]

I’m having the same problem as Jamie above - I’ve tried creating a blank text file in the blog root called gamercard_cache_tag.txt but that doesn’t help either The gamer card loads ok right at the bottom but how do I fix those errors? Any suggestions? Cheers.

Hmmm. It looks fine to me in Opera. I’d be happy to tweak the CSS if you can get me a screenshot.

Great plugin, thank you!
But I noticed it doesn’t get displayed correctly in Opera.
Maybe you could take a look into this.

Thanks again, great work!

cheesus: The played games images and links are taken from the gamercard as a single line of code, so there’s no easy way to configure the plugin to selectively display X number of images. However, you could probably edit the plugin to put a div element around the images, then use CSS to give that div a fixed width and height and give the overflow declaration a value of hidden. By adjusting the spacing before and between the images, you could probably push some of them outside the div, and in doing so, hide them from view.

William: The plugin could be edited to display any information that is publicly available - in other words, information that you can see without logging into your Xbox Live account at http://www.xbox.com. Lots of information, like online/offline status, is only visible after you’ve logged in. For security reasons, I’m not going to make the plugin log anyone in.
