Del.icio.us - Daily-Plugin?

Post by ocj »

I am looking for a plugin doing the following:

Posting a blog-entry once a day containing all De.icio.us-links I added the last 24 hours.

Such plugin is available for wordpress. You can have a look at it e.g. at Nerdcore.

Is it possible to realize such with an existing plugin?

Hi!

I'm afraid no existing plugin can yet do that. Since the delicious API is available, it shouldn't be problem to create a plugin for that, though. However my personal time is too limited for that and I personally don'T use delicious. However maybe some other developer sees this as a good challenge for a plugin using an API?

Thanks for the answer, Garvin.

As Del.icio.us also offers a RSS-Feed, on can work with the RSS-Aggregator-Plugin. The only problem with that is that it creates a single Blog-Entry for every link sent by Del.icio.us.

Maybe one can alter that plugin?

Added to the delicious sidebar plugin, I'll try to work on this "post to blog" plugin.

I just committed a cronjob plugin which will help to get this plugin booted.

Garvin

thanks a lot for taking this task, garvin... you know that we all love you :) :) :)

well the daily delicious post-to-blog feature is the main feature I want to get going to keep up with wordpress abilities.
but... uhm.. about that cronjob thingy: I know nothing about *nix systems, but I think I need a (ssh/telnet) shell to my webserver for getting this to work, right? or at least my provider needs to give me an interface to create cronjobs on the server, right? hmm... that would be a quite difficult solution, because I (and I guess many others) just have rented a bit webspace at a simple webhoster (all-inkl.com in my case) and not that kind of access to the webserver. Sorry if I got that wrong, I know nothing about cronjobs.

Hi!

Great :)

The cronjob plugin actually emulates cronjobs via PHP on your server, to exactly get around that problem to require a cronjob! This will all be explained in a blog posting I'll make for tomorrow :)

Best regards,
Garvin

I am very sorry to disturb you again, garvin.
I just installed your new cronjob plugin, and updated the delicious sidebar plugin from spartacus, but cant find any daily posting option. Am I missing something?

Hi!

This is because I haven't yet had the time to patch the delicious plugin. The only supported plugins for the cronjob facility currently in the RSS aggregator and the Popfetcher one.

I'll get to the delicious plugin once the heat doesn't melt my brain any longer :)

Best regards,
Garvin

Garvin, I'm discovering again that the phpbb forums just don't have developer functionality. I wish I could bookmark posts to take care of later, even from a different machine.

That aside, I could use the Serendipity To-Do list, if I could remember where to find it. The SourceForge feature list? Elsewhere?

Hi!

Yes, I'm missing this functionality as well from time to time. I usually bookmark threads that I want to keep track of and send me a mail with those URLs when I switch computers.

Using the s9y TODO list would work. Help yourself either here:

http://www.s9y.org/32.html
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_i ... tid=542825

if you like :)

Best regards,
Garvin

SourceForge for me, then!

I've tried the email thing, too, but it's just too annoying to keep everything synched up.

Wow, this has been on my todo-list a long time.

Sorry. I'm really swamped. Three kids and a program delivery will do that to you. But the task is on SourceForge, so anybody with the will can pick it up.
