• After contacting support, it looks like they don’t really give a bollock, so we’ll try in here.

    First, I am quite aware that Nextscripts say that they do not support the ‘Autoposting’ feature any more – but let’s face it – without the ‘Autoposting’ feature, Nextscripts is a dead dodo in a duck pond.

    They say that ‘we are waiting till version 4 for something REALLY special’, but all we are getting is minor updates with obscure websites added – that you cannot autopost to. Nextscripts ought to get their priorities right here!

    Anyway, my problem is this – I got one of my accounts to autopost to Twitter with a piece of code found elsewhere, ie

    function nxs_filter_where_only( $where = '' ) { global $wpdb; $where .= " AND ($wpdb->postmeta.meta_key != 'snap_isAutoPosted' OR ($wpdb->postmeta.meta_key = 'snap_isAutoPosted' AND $wpdb->postmeta.meta_value = '0')) "; return $where; }

    …but this will only work on one account.

    If I have more than one account, no posts are selected to be ready or indeed posted onto Twitter.

    Also, the account that IS working seems to be losing it’s count of posts day by day, so I presume that by the end of the month, that too will be registering zero posts available again.

    Question therefore is – when is this amazing new version 4 happening, and can we have at least a minimal amount of support on the one feature that persuaded thousands of users to download it in the first place?

    Just for the clarification purposes.

    they do not support the ‘Autoposting’ feature any more

    Please do not confuse people. “Autoposting” is the main plugin purpose.

    “Autoposting” is a feature that automatically sends formatted messages to all configured social networks when you publish a new blogpost, create new page, add new product, etc..

    This feature works totally fine and we do offer a full support for it.

    What you are talking is a totally different and not a main feature. It’s called “Existing posts autoreposting”. This feature suppose to take already published posts and repost them to configured social networks on some schedule.

    Unfortunately when we added that feature in version 3.0 we didn’t put much thought to it.
    It was implemented in a way that simply can’t work in about 80% of the situations. Unfortunately there is no way to fix it.

    The only way to make it work is to completely re-do it. This is exactly what we are doing right now.

    We are really sorry for your frustration, we are working as fast as possible to get version 4 released.

    Really?

    Auto-re-whamalangadoodong-posting works fine now?

    After re-setting up my Twitter account to receive these ‘working fine’ autoposts, not one yet has autoposted.

    The only way to ‘Autopost’ the posts is to click onto ‘post to twitter’, which is hardly what I’d call autoposting.

    It’s about time that Version 4 was indeed released – after two years of waiting – because I feel that Version 4 is just a plain myth.
