I have been happily running this sync script for five years now without
looking back. It syncs both the bookmarks and the tags. It supports UTF 8,
it can filter private bookmarks, ETC...
- Fully WordPress 2.x to 3.x compatible
- Allows you to set a category (like the original)
- Either 1 daily links posting or multiple postings per del.icio.us bookmark
- Synchronizes your del.icio.us tags with your WordPress tags (quite handy) *)
- Still allows you, if you want, to post the links to del.icio.us tags
- Multiple postings can each have its own slug (added in 2.3.1)
- Parameter to show private delicious postings (or not) (by Christopher Craig) (added in 2.3.2)
- UTF8 (added in version 2.3.3) (12 june 2009)
- *) and since you might forget that you enter spaces between tags in delicious and comma’s between tags in WordPress I added the option to remove comma’s on 29 oktober 2010
- It’s a standalone Perl script so you can re-use the code to interact with more products all from the same crontabbed script.
- Uses Net::Delicious to maintain future compatibility with any del.icio.us API changes.
- Completely self-contained, designed to run as a cronjob.
- Automatically filters out links not matching the current date.
- WordPress MU compatible
- seperate configuration file
See http://wp.leau.co/?p=7 for much more description
This is a perl script that can run on itself. On the url above I give some
points why this is, from IT point of view, better for synchronization scripts
(that may as well have to sync with multiple other systems and / or WordPress
installations). In other words: loosely coupled.
