FAQ
Q: What is my Wish List ID?
A: You can determine your Wish List ID by going to your Wish List page on Amazon. Click on the wish list you want to use in the plug in, even if you only have one wish list. The URL will show you something like this : http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/2CC2KKW02870/ref=cm_wl_rlist_go. This, 2CC2KKW02870 is your Wish List ID.
Q: What happens if I clear the Associated ID ?
A: The plugin will use my Associated ID.
Q: When do you expect to have a final release?
A: I really don’t know, it all depends on my free time.
Q: What do you have planned for future releases?
A: I wrote a list of planned implementations on the support forum.
