Love it!

I like this plugin a lot and use it on a few blogs but there’s a major bug that causes tweets to be made when a post is edited even if you have that option unchecked in the admin interface.

Hi, Dave. Thank you for your bug report and your fixes on the Google code site. I will include this on the weekend.

hi. Thanks for plugin

perfect.

Regards

Feature suggestion: Change the options to be on each users profile page. That way you can set tweets to be made only for users who have the option turned on in their profile page.

Really like this plug-in, however it does not tweet letter with accents correctly such as á or é, making it a little unconfortable por tweeting in other languages other than english.

Hey Dave,

Thanks for the great plug-in.

However there’s a small bug I had to hack the code a little bit. You shouldn’t encode the title with utf-8 if the blog encoding is already utf-8.

@Alexander we had the same problem and fixed it by changing line 82 in tweetly_updater.php

from:

$status = utf8_encode($sentence);

to:

$status = $sentence;

Cheers

@Ozberk & Alexander: I will look into this on the weekend and fix it for the next version. Thank you for your input.

@Michael

i like this blog tool, i will use this in my blog.

Thank you

Is there a way to add other tags besides title?

In the file, tweetly_updater.php, there are problems with the “@” sign on lines 66 & 75. These lines are adding an “@” sign to the link and it’s causing problems with the link (it’s breaking the link for some people on Twitter). So I removed the (@) sign and it works find now.

When the tweets that are sent by Tweetly Updater hit my account, they are only 60 characters long. I need to know how to increase this number and what the maximum is. Thanks!

There is a new realease (http://www.zepan.org/2009/05/24/tweetly-updater-112/) that fixes the encoding problem and eliminates the @ character.

@kim: I will look into this 60 characters thing.

Thanks for this.

You can follow on twitter @ http://www.twitter.com/adesojiadegbulu will follow u back ASAP

Maybe the first category name somewhere in the tweet will be good, because just the title isn\’t always a descriptive way to say what are you linking to

this is what i\’ve done:
after title variable initialization
$cat=get_the_category($post_ID);
$categories = $cat[0]->cat_name;

and this in the variable concatenation:
$thisposttitle = $categories . \’ | \’ .$thisposttitle . \’ \’ . $shortlink;

Version 1.1.2 of this plugin is sending Twitter updates when updating a post even if this feature is turned off in the options.
