    Media Manager 1.1 is now available.
    AMM is a simple sidebar “hack” that lets you add books, music and DVD’s to your sidebar with a click of a button, simply by pasting in the ISBN or ASIN (Amazon ID Number).
    Several people are already using it:
    Me!! denyerec.co.uk
    Kitta.net
    Opencoder
    Bellisima
    After several people pointed it out, I have updated the script to co-operate with various multi-national Amazon sites. I hope it works as fully on these new sites as it does on the .co.uk and .com ones, my preliminary testing says yes, but you never can tell.
    Go here to get the new version!
    Also, please , if you use this script, link to https://www.denyerec.co.uk in your sidebar, that’s the only “fee” I ask for making use of my hours of code!!

    The new code has been uploaded.
    I believe the mistake was an erroneous single ‘=’ in an IF comparison. That’s what you get for coding when you’re ill I guess ??
    Fixed now, keep me posted so I know when to make a new thread for it.

    denyerec:
    Code uploaded. It looks like it’s working fine.
    As for a link back, are you cool with me using a nifty button to link back to you?

    Hey ZaMoose,
    I’d not thought about that actually ?? I’ve got some web buttons make up here:
    Web Buttons
    When I remember to, I’ll make an ‘official’ button but feel free to use whatever fits in with your site.
    Thanks for the link ??

    I tried implementing this on my WP1.2alpha site but there is no new Media menu. Does anyone know how to remedy this? Thanks.

    I haven’t installed the most recent alpha but as I recall there is no longer a menu.txt – it is all done in menu.php. If that is still the case you will have to add: array(Media, 5, ‘amazonphp.php’), to $menu

    I figured that out a little while ago, but now get the following error:
    Parse error: parse error, expecting `’)” in /homepages/6/d87721323/htdocs/public_html/not/wp-admin/menu.php on line 20
    ?

    I’ve discovered that commenting out one of the other menu option will eliminate the problem, but, of course, also eliminate that menu option.

    The get_media function isn’t working. My guess is that amazoninfo.php is not being parsed. I did add the include… line to my index file.

    removed variables and corrected my mistake of not placing inside php tags and it worked. set variables and it worked. Beatiful.

    Curses!
    I forgot to include the menu.txt file again?
    Consider it fixed as of now.

    I’ve installed the Amazon Media Manager 1.1 but I’m having trouble getting it to align correctly. Check it out here…

    Interesting choice of menu layout. Might set padding-left:0, etc. (like you have in div navcontainer)

    Is it possible that this is making my page load slowly? Will there be an update to this soon?

    I’ve installed this and it shows up in the blog, however, my problem is that on the admin menu I am seeing ?Amazon? – not the ? and it isn’t clickable as the url below calls whatever menu item I called previously and adds ?amazonphpphp? to the end of the URL string. HELP! I can call it directly, but not from the we-admin menu.

    err…. above should have read NOTE THE ?
