Serendipity Forums

If this has hit in another thread, I apologize. Did a search and only see one other entry regarding Bookmarklets in Serendipity: http://www.s9y.org/forums/viewtopic.php ... ookmarklet

My question is whether there are other options for using Bookmarklets? One of my primary methods of blogging uses this type of posting process. Has anyone developed a different method (from the one linked above) or is there additional software or plugin that allows for this?

Thanks,
DWeade

So you read about the JustblogIT extension? What is wrong with that one?

Did you look into XML-RPC posting plugins, like flock, ecto, marsedit, w.bloggar -- maybe this is something you are looking for?

Reagrding Flock: has anybody been able getting the latest version (0.4.10) to work with S9Y? Of course I installed to XMLRPC-Plugin, but Flock only "hangs" when I try to configure it ("Just double-checking"...). This happens with either Blogger or MetaWeblog-Endpoints.

Also tried out to turn on debugging within serendipity_xmlrpc.inc.php, but this doesn't show me anything...
Otoh, when I take a look at my webserver-logs, I can see the POST-Request the browser creates.

Btw.: With Flock 0.4.9 and the latest build (-pre 0.4.11) I'm only getting errors "detecting your blog settings". By sniffing traffic I don't see any useable responses to blogger.getUsersPosts.

Would be really neat if we could Flock for blogging, as I think it'll grow a lotz in popularity, especially for bloggers.

CaptainCrunch:

I just tested with 0.5-pre and can post using the Blogger API. The auto-detection did fail, but I was able to post without a major problem after configuring the endpoint manually.

I'll contact the Flock developers for asking about how we can support auto-detection.

I've also just committed auto-detection support for version 1.9 of the plugin.

Great as usual!

What if your using the great Opera browser? Any options for a bookmarklet here (or in any browser other that FireFux)?

Garvin: Have you seen the latest reply on the Flock-"Forum"? Seems as if these guys would love to support the best blog in the world.

Btw.: It still doesn't work for me, although auto-detection does. Whenever I fill in my (correct) Username and password, I'm still getting errors.

Thanks for your pointer! Indeed I didn'T check back there, but now I did

It's sad that it doesn'T yet work for you - are you using the latest flock shot? You might want to enable the XMLRPC debuging (Edit your serendipity_xmlrpc.inc.php file and set $debug = true) to see what's causing errors?

Best regards,

I'm using the hourly Flock-builds.

Well, my main problem with enabling debugging is that rpc.log doesn't get written. I also tried to switch to path from /tmp to something else (e.g. my /path/to/blog), but that also doesn't work out.

But it's working here without problems? You must use a directory that's writable for your webserver - and set the $debug to true...this really must work

JustBlogIt is unfortunately not working with the latest FireFox built -and what about us, that are not using FireFox, but Opera or the latest IE7 beta 2 - which is actually rather nice - what are we to do?
Why doesn't Serendipity offer an option like other blog systems, to drag a bookmarklet from the control panel to the browser panel? I would like to see that! Else, Serendipity rules!

Hi!

That wouldn'T be a problem, actually. Until now, nobody has requested this really, though.

If you show me a bookmarklet for any blog system, I'll take that to write a serendipity one within a few minutes.

Best regards,

Nice! Here is one from the great Pivot blog system:
