   Sorry if I'm being thick here, but I can't seem to find the Press It! bookmarklet in WP 2.5.

   In previous versions it was at the bottom of the Write Post screen.

   Anyone else?

   The bookmarklet has been removed from WP 2.5.

   According to Matt it'll be making a return in 2.6 better than ever.

   You can still use the 2.3 bookmarklet, which you can find on this page: http://codex.wordpress.org/Press_It

   I also wrote these ones up awhile ago since the default one didnt support Opera very well:
   New Window/tab: javascript:function A(b){return (encodeURIComponent)?encodeURIComponent(b):escape(b);}Q='';if(window.getSelection){Q=window.getSelection();}else if (document.getSelection){Q=document.getSelection()}else if(document.selection){Q=document.selection.createRange().text;}void(window.open('http://site-url/wp-admin/post-new.php?text='+A(Q)+'&popupurl='+A(location.href)+'&popuptitle='+A(document.title)));

   One which works in the current window: javascript:function A(b){return (encodeURIComponent)?encodeURIComponent(b):escape(b);}Q='';if(window.getSelection){Q=window.getSelection();}else if (document.getSelection){Q=document.getSelection()}else if(document.selection){Q=document.selection.createRange().text;}location.href='http://site-url/wp-admin/post-new.php?text='+A(Q)+'&popupurl='+A(location.href)+'&popuptitle='+A(document.title);

   You'll need to update the 'site-url' in the link to be useful though.
   Just create a new bookmark and set those as the URL..

   dd32 thanks, but it dosn't work for me (I'm using Opera).
   I get redirected to URL like this:
   http://my-blog.com/wp-admin/post-new.php?text=I%20also%20wrote%20these%20ones%20up%20awhile%20ago%20since%20the%20default%20one%20didnt%20support%20Opera%20very%20well&popupurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2F164205%3Freplies%3D4&popuptitle=WordPress%20%E2%80%BA%20Support%20%C2%BB%20Can't%20find%20the%20bookmarklet%20in%202.5

   pozmu: I had the same problem as you, but this one worked for me:

   javascript:location.href='http://SITEURL/wp-admin/post-new.php?popupurl='+escape(location.href)+'&popuptitle='+escape(document.title);

   apologies for the late reply :)

   dd32 thanks, but it dosn't work for me (I'm using Opera).
   I get redirected to URL like this:

   I'm not sure, I just tried it in Opera9.5 and it worked for me, and that URL looks allright to me(Infact, If i change the url it does work for me).

   If you have the same problem, I'd just give fimp's version a go, but you'll loose the select-text functions.

   Thanks dd32. In Safari, works like a charm.

   My old PressIt link, which is a browser button for me, still seems to work. Doesn't seem to do images though, which I think it used to...

    dd32 was correct in his links for PressIt; the only problem was that his '&' in the querystrings to seperate out the parameters were converted to HTML safe '&'. I've put the edited versions below that work in version 2.5.1.

    New Window/tab:
    javascript:function A(b){return (encodeURIComponent)?encodeURIComponent(b):escape(b);}Q='';if(window.getSelection){Q=window.getSelection();}else if (document.getSelection){Q=document.getSelection()}else if(document.selection){Q=document.selection.createRange().text;}void(window.open('http://site-url/wp-admin/post-new.php?text='+A(Q)+'&popupurl='+A(location.href)+'&popuptitle='+A(document.title)));

    One which works in the current window:
    javascript:function A(b){return (encodeURIComponent)?encodeURIComponent(b):escape(b);}Q='';if(window.getSelection){Q=window.getSelection();}else if (document.getSelection){Q=document.getSelection()}else if(document.selection){Q=document.selection.createRange().text;}location.href='http://site-url/wp-admin/post-new.php?text='+A(Q)+'&popupurl='+A(location.href)+'&popuptitle='+A(document.title);
