Mystique – TweetMeMe doesn’t work with Featured Posts.

    When I turn on the featured posts option in the Mystique theme, the TweetMeMe buttons disappear. When I turn it off, the buttons come back.

    Any idea why this might be or how to correct it?

    I am using the latest versions of everything as of today.

    Anyone?

    you can’t make it work unless you turn off featured posts.
    this because of bad plugin coding.

    more exactly, the plugin author hooks his function on “the_content()” without making sure the_content() is called within the main loop & not on other stuff (like the featured posts in this case)…

    if you know php I could tell you how to fix this, you’ll need to edit the plugin code.

    I’m willing to give it a shot if you are. I have done some pretty advanced stuff and I’m pretty good at following directions. ??

    open tweetmeme.php and replace
    add_filter('the_content', 'tm_update');
    with:
    add_filter('the_content', 'tm_update', 8);

    Wow, that works.

    Why does adding the ‘8’ make a difference? I am going to report this to TweetMeMe.

    8 is the priority for the hooked function.
    you need that so the filter is added before get_the_excerpt calls the_content.
