In reply to: [WP-o-Matic] [Plugin: WP-o-Matic] Thanks for the updateI installed WP-o-Matic in June 2009 and I’m pretty sure rrauch’s name was attached to it then. Am I missing something?
The code looks ok and it parses ok at RegExr
@ampsound You will probably have to wait until Mike updates the plugin.
In the mean time open ‘si-contact-form-display.php’ and delete the function that displays the message.

In reply to: [TweetOnPost] [Plugin: TweetOnPost] Scheduled Posts?@danperron Thanks for the update, I can now abandon the web interface for updating posts.
it was my understanding that if you sent a url to the API and a shortlink already existed with that key, it would simply return that shortlink instead of creating a new one.
It should work in theory but unfortunately bit.ly’s system of detecting duplicate URLS breaks if you use a URL with some additional parameters, for example adsense UTM parameters, which I found out the painful way after installing a UTM tracking plugin combined with a social bookmarking plugin that had a bit.ly API feature, resulted in 800 new duplicate URLS spamming my bit.ly account over a 3hr period.
http://www.site.com/dir/post/?utm_source=… etc
Bit.ly doesn’t recognize that these will go to the same page and will produce a new URL.
But I digress, on this occasion the new bit.ly URL was my fault as I slightly changed the post title before updating.
Cheers

In reply to: [TweetOnPost] [Plugin: TweetOnPost] Scheduled Posts?I’m not sure if anybody else experiences this but when I _update_ a post via an xmlprc client, it tweets again, is there a way to stop this behavior? It also generates a fresh bit.ly URL which is kind of annoying.
It might be a handy feature if it.. a. It recognized it was an updated post and appended something like [UPDATED] to the end of the tweet. b. It used the original bit.ly URLForum: Plugins
In reply to: [Plugin: SexyBookmarks] Plugin is generating heaps of links in bit.lySame, here. I had 600 new bit.ly links created over 3 days after I installed Sexy bookmarks. It appears to create a new bit.ly link when one just LOADS a page.

In reply to: Issue with Live Writer and Attaching Images on 2.8Just an update on this issue, this was broken with a change to the database schema in 2.8 with [ post >> post_parent ] being changed from ‘SIGNED bigint(20’) to ‘UNSIGNED bigint(20’). During the image upload the XMLRPC tries to set post_parent as ‘-1’, which fails with with the ‘UNSIGNED’ attribute. The regression is realized and will be fixed in 2.9.
Temporary fix, open xmlrpc.php, around line 2272 you will find..
$attachments = $wpdb->get_results( "SELECT ID, guid FROM {$wpdb->posts} WHERE post_parent = '-1' AND post_type = 'attachment'" );change to
$attachments = $wpdb->get_results( "SELECT ID, guid FROM {$wpdb->posts} WHERE post_parent = '0' AND post_type = 'attachment'" );Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Issue with Live Writer and Attaching Images on 2.8Additionally, as I use WLW religiously, this is a game changer for me, I’m going back to 2.7.1.
Here is an screenshot from my own dashboard with commentary of what’s happening via the WordPress Media Gallery.

In reply to: Issue with Live Writer and Attaching Images on 2.8I am also seeing this behavior, my posts have images, but my preview has no thumbnails anymore. I haven’t found it yet but WordPress 2.8 seems to have changed the behavior of attachments and isn’t adding the image metadata to the post anymore if using xmlrpc solutions like WLW.
You can of course add a ‘Custom Field’, in my case the [name] would be ‘Image’ and the [value] would be ‘http://url.to/my/image’, but this is based on phpthumb integration.
Maybe a Dev could enlighten us on what/where was changed so we may try to correct this asinine behavior.

In reply to: [Twitter Tools] Don’t get shortened URLSIt’s not an issue with Twitter Tools, but an issue with Twitter itself. On occasions, Twitter’s TinyURL implementation breaks and it will spit out full URLS, Twitter has also been known to temporarily turn off TinyURL creation during heavy usage.
