Refgenerator is used to insert at the end of any post the list of all external links
used in your post.

    to upload the top-level folder.

## FAQ

Q: Why doesn’t it work for me?

A: The problem is with your WordPress theme. Either the template does not include`
get_header()` in its templates pages or the author of the template forgot to include`
wp_header()` in the header.php file and/or `wp_footer` in the footer.php of the 
WordPress theme. Be sure to look at the default theme, or other quality themes (
eg: standards-compliant XHTML and CSS) to see how they work

Q: I’m using the advanced method but it it does not work for me ?

A: To use the advanced method you must have **a well understanding of html and of
the WordPress Loop** to determine the html `class` and `id` attributes to make the
plugin works. If you don’t know them because you’re not familiar with coding and/
or debugging html I shall advise you to use the PHP method.

Q: Can I change the generated list `class` attributes or the generated list appearance?

A: Of course, in order to do so, you must edit the CSS files you’ll find in the 
css subdirectory in the plugin directory
