Mobile plugin - bug

[djgrrr]

When testing the iPhone feed (via user agent switcher) I got the following error:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/MYSITE/public_html/MYSITE.com/blog/plugins/serendipity_event_mobile_output/serendipity_event_mobile_output.php on line 308

It would seem to me that this is a missed exception catch since I currently am using no categories. I will add a category or two and retest to confirm this suspicion.

The code in question is the foreach() loop in the assignCategories() function...

My thinking was correct. I now have a working iPhone mobile site, but with no content since I added a category, but did not assign and posts to the category (all posts are still "no category").

My next test will be to assign at least one post to a category...

[djgrrr]

So I assiged one of the 2 existing test posts to a category, but nothing is showing up in the iPhone formatted site.

My text test will be to assign both (all) posts to a category...

[djgrrr]

Okay - still no content showing up for iPhone.

Am I missing something? Is there a sidebar or companion plugin that needs to be installed alongside the Mobile plugin?

[djgrrr]

Alright...

Thanks to this other post I've got it to work as (i think) intended.

The bug with no categories probably still exists. Now to tackle this blackberry bug...

Ah... adding these missing files (which did not get installed by Spartacus) also solved the Blackberry output problem. 2 birds / 1 stone.

Hi!

Sorry we were not around helping you on this, but I want to drop in to say a huge thanks for documenting your findings here, they will surely be useful for people in the future.

Does the "no category" problem still exist?

Can you be more specific about the missing category on the iPhone problem? I can't tell for sure if your posts aren't showing up with categories as you read them on the iPhone, or if the categories aren't showing up when you try to author a new post via the iPhone.

I've tried both BlogPress and BlogWriter for authoring new blog entries from the iPhone. Neither app shows me categories, in fact, BlogPress just crashes when I try to select one. BlogWriter gives me as many "blank" lines as I have setup for categories, so I know it's at least getting the count, just not the content.

Neither app claims to work with S9Y, but both are supposed to work leveraging generic interfaces (XMLRPC).

I sent a note once to the author of BlogPress who said he would look into S9Y and stating official support, but haven't heard back.

This might be totally off-topic from what you're having a problem with, so apologies if I've hijacked your thread.
