There IS a long-standing bug in the plugin that can sometimes cause the links to not be displayed at all in the books details panel until calibre is restarted. Anything that affects the set of installed plugins (such as adding or removing) will cause this to occur. You may be running into this problem.

It is a side effect of the hack I used to have the same plugin work as both a UI plugin and a metadata plugin, which is not actually supported by calibre. The plugin needs to be a UI plugin in order to interact fully with the user and a metadata plugin in order to display links in the books details panel. I could have implemented this as two separate plugins, but that would added complexity for the user.
