In reply to: [Kalendas] [Plugin: Kalendas] Parser ErrorThanks! By config, I’m assuming you mean the option to update each hour or day… I have changed it to hour from day and will see how things are once the ‘&’ is no longer present in the feed content.

In reply to: [Kalendas] [Plugin: Kalendas] Parser ErrorOn a related thought, it might be helpful to add an option to turn error printing off.

In reply to: Facebook posts to WordPress?Still have found nothing that does this. I tried FeedWordPress, which sort of works, but is awkward b/c of the way that Facebook posts lack a title (title in the feed is derived from the post).
Today I found the Blog It app by Six Apart, which claims to post to self-hosted WordPress blogs and other platforms. Judging from the review though, it’s highly buggy (multiple posts, etc). If it works I’ll report back.

In reply to: [Facebook Tab Manager] [Plugin: Facebook Tab Manager] http vs httpsAh, I get it now. As in indicated in the Developer’s blog, the latest version of the plugin “only fixes the problem if your web server is configured to support HTTPS” — i.e. you need to “spring for the required SSL certificate.” My host, Site5, makes a shared SSL certificate available, but this does not appear to work. Dedicated SSLs are something like $50.
For now, I will go the other route of administering tabs via Facebook apps. The one I’m using now, Static HTML: iframe Tabs, is effective for creating basic pages using iframes and html. You can actually use the html source from a Facebook Tab Manager page actually. This app is also worth checking out if you’re looking for a more robust website builder. Obviously this means maintaining a redundant set of content — but this was actually the case with FTM pages anyway, since the plugin does not provide for designating existing WordPress posts or pages as Facebook tabs.

In reply to: [Facebook Tab Manager] [Plugin: Facebook Tab Manager] http vs httpsI have not seen the ‘insecure content box’ but am finding that if I arrive at my page through https (one of my admin accounts is set to use secure connection), the tab is actually missing from the list. when i switch to use Facebook as page, this remains true — unless I manage to switch it to http, when it becomes visible and functional again.
I have also found via application administration that “a secure callback url” (presumably for both canvas and tab) is now required. This gets to Mitch’s points, and the question: how can SSL be provided? Is this something on the plugin end, or something we have to configure on our server? Again to reiterate (from the Facebook Developer thread):
“THIS IS NO LONGER A BUG. Facebook has essentially *required* (for all practical purposes) that your content be hosted securely. Deal with the new reality and get about setting up and hosting your apps properly.”Have not checked developer site for the discussion but will do so.

In reply to: Facebook posts to WordPress?I am looking for this too but have not found it. Thought WordBooker did it, b/c it claimed to “crosspost,” but as far as I can tell this is limited to crossposting comments for posts that originated within WordPress.

In reply to: [Plugin: AddThis] Bug: Encoding of spaces, special characters in titleThis post in the AddThis support forum contains the fix — requires editing the plugin:
https://www.addthis.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=23806
My other problem with the url + title not working from the AddThis instance added to my template may be a problem specific to Atahualpa — I’ll experiment with another theme to find out.

In reply to: Discussion-based email list from WP users?From a look at the source html of the wp-pro page, i’m guessing this isn’t an integration — just a custom stylesheet

In reply to: Discussion-based email list from WP users?you can use MailMan:
https://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/index.htmlThis can be integrated with WordPress. Check thus:
https://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-proDoes anybody have more information about Automattic’s ‘integration’ of MailMan with WordPress — is it actually integrated? if so is it a hack? a plugin? etc
i am familiar with the available wp newsletter plugins and plugins to hook into third-party newsletter services (mailchimp, constantcontact, etc), but have been unable to find any info about a) integrating mailman sub/unsub into wordpress – ideally into wp registraiton, and/or b) integrating any other mailman functions such as archives into wordpress/a wordpress theme
