Good morrow 9Rulers,
In the process of designing my website I seem to have gotten myself into a little pickle. Having used the Extended Live Archive plugin on a previous incarnation, I thought adding it to the new theme to be a simple business. Unfortunately this has not proved to be the case.
- I've downloaded a few versions given that the latest are betas.
- There is some talk on the interweb that there are issues for Wordpress version 2.3 and above, yet I am (rather ashamedly) still on 2.1.
- I have, to the best of my knowledge, followed 24FightingChickens' tutorial.
Evidently I've done something wrong, so I wonder if people had some pointers. With the various things I've tried, the page either shows up blank, or with content that is listed vertically in one column down the page.
One possible issue I have is precisely what should be contained within the php template file? For instance, amongst other things, I've tried:
<?php
/*
Template Name: Extended Live Archives
*/
?>
<?php get_header(); ?>
<?php if (function_exists('af_ela_super_archive')) {af_ela_super_archive();} ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
Should you look at it, my website currently has everything relating to ELA deleted off it out of frustration. The Archive there currently is running the SRG Clean Archives plugin.

I'm not much of a WP plugin guy (prefer to just write the code myself rather than deal with versioning issues like the ones it seems you're battling) but hopefully some Wordpress gurus can hop in here and help you out.

I certainly hope so; there's more than enough talent lurking around these halls. I recall last year having another coding issue and being bailed out by the venerable bobbyh.
