Incompatible with Next Scripts Social Network Auto Poster

Hi, I have both this plugin and the Next Scripts Social Network Auto Poster enabled for my multisite.

Both plugins work great independantly but when combined there is a problem.

The nextScript plugin basically enhances the social media posting of a post.

If I put a new post up and then broadcast to 5 different sites rather than each of those sites being shared out automatically to each of the social sites I have set up for each one, all of the social posts go out onto the parent site. So I put 1 post up and share out to 5, and get 6 posts on the same Facebook site, for example.

(I have seperate Facebook pages per network site)

I’ve just reported this to NextScripts but it would be great if you could get together to fix this problem as both plugins are well established on MultiSite and it’s a shame that this problem exists.

What I would like to see is the ability for me to broadcast to any other site, and for the social sharing options to be invoked on each of the child sites correctly.

Thanks

Mike

I’m open to make [almost] any changes necessary to increase compatability with other well-behaved plugins. 🙂

I’ll be awaiting his e-mail.

Hi, Edward

Are both plugins compatibles now?

TrisQ, no doesn’t look like it.

Real shame as I am having to copy and paste every post that is relevant to multiple sites seperately just to avoid this issue.

If I went to broadcast it, every child site would post its NextScript social share out via the parent sites social settings (to it’s FB pages etc).

If this was fixed it would make my life so much easier!

Has anyone asked the author to contact me? I’d appreciate help from the plugin author, rather than trying to figuring out everything by myself.

At any rate, I’m open to work in this fix / customization if my time is fairly compensated.

E-mail me, anyone.

That’s really not a conversation for these forums. If someone needs work like that performed then they can ask at http://jobs.wordpress.net/ and that includes plugin customization.

Has anyone asked the author to contact me?

You’re listed as a plugin contributor… Have you been able to contact the author…?

I am the plugin author. Couldn’t find a way to change my login name or the plugin author, therefore this new account.

Try contacting the plugin team via plugins [at] wordpress.org and they may be able to sort that out for you.

I’ve had more contact with this SNAP plugin thing, and had some help from my users. I believe the following code, inserted in a plugin or someplace, will prevent SNAP from double-posting.
```
add_action( 'threewp_broadcast_broadcasting_started', 'bc_SNAP_unhook' );

function bc_SNAP_unhook()
{
    remove_action( 'transition_post_status', 'nxs_snapLogPublishTo', 10, 3 );
}
```
Anyone feel like trying it out?

Edward, I’m actually having the opposite issue as the code solution you offered above. When we make a post and broadcast the post to other sites or groups within the network. I does not trigger the NextScripts SNAP social media autopost at all. We have to login to each site manually and tell it to post to SM. The actual post is occurring on each site, but it is not triggering the social media posting.

That’s weird. The next version of the pack will have a SNAP plugin that social posts according to the settings on each blog, maybe that will help your problem of not social posting at all.

I can’t really say what your problem is, since the SNAP plugin is extremely badly written and terribly hard to follow in order to debug. :/
