Just wanted to give you a heads-up. The newest version of the MySpace Crossposter is now available, and the changes are many.

Everything is contained in one file. Activation from the Plugin Options screen is enabled. No need to edit any source files. All configuration is done through the WordPress Options screen. And best of all, once you “activate” and configure the plugin, it runs itself. You press “publish”, it crossposts. Simple as that.

The older versions are still available, but the new version can be found at: http://noumenon.roderickrussell.com/myspace-crossposter-v2-released

Cheers!

Good post. If only I could get that damn plugin working now.

Another followup - had I read further in Roderick Russell’s original post with this tool, I would have seen that there were new versions further down the page. The pingmyspace_v1_4a.php actually fixed this problem. Doh!

There was a minor error in the pingmyspace.php - when it generates the link to the individual post it doesn't include the /YYYY/MM/DD/ portion of the url. So I made a couple minor changes:

At about line 54 you will find this:

//FETCH THAT ROW

$row=mysql_fetch_array($result);



$title=$row[5];

$content=$row[4];

$postUrl=$blogUrl.$row[12];

I changed it to this:

//FETCH THAT ROW

$row=mysql_fetch_array($result);



$title=$row[5];

$content=$row[4];



//ADD THE DATE FOR THE INDIVIDUAL POST URL

$today=date('Y/m/d/');

$postUrl=$blogUrl.$today.$row[12];
