hi..
first of all i love your plugin very much and its autocomic feature is the one which made me prefer it over comicpress. i just have a few requests. My requirement is that i require stripshow for 2 of my comics along with my regular blog. these 2 comics of mine are completely different from each other and i wanted them two run on 2 separate pages of my blog. i saw that multicomic feature but i dont know how to work with it. It limits me to only 2 options. either just 1 category for comics and rest for blog or vice versa. Can i run my 2 comics with 2 categories for them and rest for the blog?
i have gone through a lot of forums on the net and it seems like the multicomic is one of the most requested features. The Comicpress guys too are working on a new plugin comic easel but there is no news about its release. Please do take my requests into consideration. i love this plugin and i want to stick with it for long.

And 2 things i forgot.

1. I am using the blackball navigation buttons. When the autocomic sidebar is empty.. the navigation buttons that appear by default are in perfect order.. with the "random comic" button in center.

but when i use the navigation widget in the sidebar, the ordering of buttons is different and the bigger random comic button goes to right most position. please tell me wot to edit to bring it back in center.

2. when i am on any previous comic. the "last comic" button links to my blogs home page instead of the last (latest) comic.

In relation to your fist post, I think the easiest thing to do might be to set up your WordPress install as a multi-site/network installation and use stripShow with it then.

There is information on using Network mode in WordPress 3.0 in the WordPress codex.

http://codex.wordpress.org/Cre….._A_Network

This will allow you to essentially have different sites all under one install. So you don't need to just have a different category for one comic or another, you can have a subdomain/folder that runs a separate WordPress without having to worry about updating/taking care of more than one actual installation.

And, stripShow works just fine in a Network environment in WordPress. I have it set up at my own site currently and have it working without an issue.

In relation to your second post and the questions there, I'm afraid I'm not sure on any of that.

greengel answered the first question, so I'll handle these… sorry about the ordering of the navigation buttons in the widget. I'm looking into how to get those to be user-specifiable, but right now they're set.

As for the Last Comic button going to the home page, that's the default behavior. When using the last_comic template tag, you can change it, but not with the widget.

What this tells me is that the widget needs to be more robust and configurable. I will get on that for the next release.

    While I don't maintain stripShow for a living, I wouldn't say no to a little donation, if you think the plugin is worth it...
