<p>Before you start you need to authenticate the plugin to access your Pocket account.<br />
Go to the Pocket Widget settings and click <strong>authenticate</strong>. This wil take you to Pocket which will tell you what this app is authorised. If you <strong>authorize</strong> it you’ll be taken back to the settings page.<br />
The newly added ‘Access token’ together with the ‘Consumer key’ is your access to Pocket. Save the settings…</p>
<p>By default Pocket Widget has it’s own Pocket App for API access.<br />
You can easily setup your own by going to http://getpocket.com/developer/apps/ and clicking <strong>Create an Application</strong>.<br />
Then give it a name, allow it only to <strong>retreive</strong>, and set the platform to <strong>web</strong>. Then accept terms of service and click <strong>create application</strong>.<br />
Copy the <strong>consumer key</strong> to the Pocket Widget settings and click <strong>Save changes</strong>.</p>
<h3>Versioning and issues</h3>
