$sql .=", homepage";
}

$sql .=", email";
}
$sql .=", body FROM {$serendipity['dbPrefix']}guestbook ORDER BY timestamp DESC";
$sql .=" LIMIT ".$max_items;
$entries = serendipity_db_query($sql);
if($entries && is_array($entries)) {
foreach($entries as $e => $row) {
echo "<b>" . htmlspecialchars(serendipity_strftime($dateformat, $row['timestamp'])) . '</b> <br />' . "\n";
$row['body'] = htmlspecialchars($row['body']);
if (strlen($row['body'])>$max_chars) {
if (function_exists('mb_strimwidth')) {

Hi!
Ah, the plugin is simply missing a language constant for this. I added it to the next plugin version.
However, the database table should be created automatically once you installed the guestbook event plugin. Which database type and version are you using?

Which database type and version are you using?
I used mysql 5.0
And I found that there are several sites met this problem:
you could google :PLUGIN_GUESTSIDE_NOENTRIES

Hi!
Yes, like I mentioned, the plugin was simply missing the translation for this "NOENTRIES".
Can you check your database and see if a serendipity_guestbook database table really does not exist? Make sure the guestbok EVENT plugin is also installed, not just the SIDEBAR plugin.
The PLUGIN_GUESTSIDE_NOENTRIES output will disappear once you have your first guestbook entry.

Yes,the table serendipity_guestbook didn't exist,
following is the SQL:
SELECT timestamp, name, body FROM serendipity_guestbook ORDER BY timestamp DESC LIMIT 1
And the plugin installed,i could see it's info in the backoffice,such as :
Display the latest guestbook items in the sidebar
版本: 1.08[/img]

Hi!
In the plugin management interface, you first see sidebar plugins, and on the bottom of the page the event plugins. Make sure that you also have the "Guestbook" EVENT plugin installed, not only the sidebar plugin.
