Hi Sherif. I haven't uploaded that new php file yet, but it now suddenly starts to work anyway. WTF? Anyway thanks for the mod. What I need to know now is how I change the image re-sizing, as currently the widget is too small in my primary content area.

you should upload the new php file to make popular option work well..

there is a template called

cmsfcs_script, where you increase the width of box.

and open cmsfcs_contentbit to change image size.
