Twitter Integration


After nearly a year of no blog posting which has been mirrored by a year of tweeting i’ve decided to integrate stony’s blog with the twitter account. This is thanks to a couple of plugins twitter tools which downloads the tweets every 15 minutes or on demand and social which links twitter and facebook into the blog. All tweets will be tweeted under the category interweb, with tag twitter and title begins with “Tweet:”

I am still going to try and post to the blog directly but with twitter posting to facebook, and having to post manually to facebook from the blog, why not post direct to the blog from twitter.

Replies on twitter are automatically linked into the blog and can be viewed as a link

Next stage is to link facebook into the blog but i’ll leave that for another day

Plugins and Upgrades

New Plugins and upgrades are going in left right and centre
Fed up with the spam and new users have introduced captcha across the board.
I may trial letting members post comments without having to enter it down the road, but for now i’m not easing up.
Also upgraded ip2nation again, and will be putting in more plugins to spruce the place up

WordPress 2.8.4

It’s been a few months since i last updated anything
Saw a few rogue users signing up – hope this deters them – and upgraded to the latest version of wordpress
I must say it’s so much easier than it used to be – the plugins do it all for you without a hitch

WordPress 2.7.1

As usual i’m being slapdash with upgrading my blog’s software
But hopefully from now on you won’t see these posts because i’ve installed new plugin at the same time as doing the update which is called WordPress automatic upgrade. With this plugin whenever there’s an upgrade it will do the backup and installation through the wordpress admin pane for me without having to download files, backup and ftp myself which should keep me up to date.

Anyways, am currently with the latest release, haven’t seen anything too radically different other than it’s fixed a bug i had in the admin pane to do with plugins. But do drop me an email if you spot anything.
