[NEW] Notable – Social Bookmark/network plugin
-
Notable displays a series of icons below each post allowing your readers to easily submit you to many different social bookmarking and networking sites. (del.icio.us, digg, fark, etc.)
This is the latest in my BlogBling series of plugins.
As always questions and comments are always welcome.

Howdy Cal-
Thank you for your effort on this valuable plug. I’m a total novice, but after downloading v1.11, I’ve managed to complete installation through step four.I’m a bit confused about the “loop area” to which the code
<?php wp_notable(); ?>
should be added to. I’m using a custom theme based off of kubrick, just not sure which file (and where in that file) the code needs to be added.
Last bit; you mention “CSS Fun” as the next section of the install instructions and refer to v1.2 – as it’s unlikely I’ll need to mess with that, I’m just curious as to whether I’ve dowloaded the latest version. Thanks again!
Cheers,
JoelHowdy Joel,
where the_loop is depends on your theme. if you are using a derivative of the kubrik theme, it’s most likely in index.php. If you ware using a derivative of k2 then there is a file called theloop.php.
In most cases you are looking for a line in your template that looks like this:
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
That’s the beginning of theloop. Follow it from that point till you find where you want to put it.

Great! Thanks, for the speedy response – your instructions were right on…
A tiny issue remains unfortunately:
My blog is now displaying multiple rows of text & no icons (I’d like to show only the icons – in a single row). I checked, and after downloading your zip pkg, all of the files seem to be correctly uploaded to my server. I’ve also set the options in the admin panel to reflect what I’d like to see.
Additionally, the options seem to be reverting back to showing all of the bookmarks instead of the six boxes I’ve checked…possibly related?
Thanks again & I expect that this is the last time I’ll be pestering you.
Cheers!
P.S. Here is the code from “the loop” where I’ve implemented it:
<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
<h2><a>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<small><?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?> <!-- by <?php the_author() ?> --></small><div class="entry">
<?php the_content('Read the rest of this entry »'); ?>
</div><p class="postmetadata">Posted in <?php the_category(', ') ?> | <?php edit_post_link('Edit', '', ' | '); ?> <?php comments_popup_link('No Comments »', '1 Comment »', '% Comments »'); ?>
</div><?php if(function_exists('wp_print')) { print_link_image(); } ?>
<?php if(function_exists('wp_email')) { email_link_image(); } ?>
<?php wp_notable(); ?><?php endwhile; ?>
great plugin!
Maybe you should make a fix so that you can customize the links to be pictures/text and/or maybe have a set of really small pictures.
Hmmmm…Ok, I can’t reproduce the problem of the options not saving. (Currently on my blog, I have blogmarks turned off just to see.) I will leave it turned off for a while and see if I can isolate the problem code. As to the problem of them showing on a single row, try using the non-breaking space as the spacer between them or no space option. I’ve not run into that problem however the current version does have an option to allow you to specify how many icons per row with 0 being all on one row.
@Carcasherdotcom,
Thanks for the kind words. I’ll add the option to remove the graphic and just show the ‘prepend’ text in an upcoming release. Thanks. That’s a great idea. As for making the icons smaller, they are already 16×16. My old eyes don’t see much smaller than that. ??
Look for a new release this weekend.

Thanks again Cal…After following your latest instructions to no avail, I switched around the file locations which had no effect either…
If you’d like to check out my source code, you can go HERE.
Also, here are my Notable Configuration Options:
Icons Per Row = 0
Image Path = /wp-content/plugins/blogbling/images/
Spacer String = non-breaking spaceThank you once more – maybe just waiting till this weekend would be the best bet?
It looks like your images are actually stored in https://www.joelneuenhaus.com/blog3/wp-content/plugins/blogbling/images/
So if you change your Notable options to an Image Path of /blog3/wp-content/plugins/blogbling/images/ I bet it would work.
Yep, it’s that time again. Time to dive in, grab the new code and beat it into submission.
I’ve updated WP-NOTABLE, part of the BlogBling line of plugins. I fixed a problem where it would reset your options each time you went to the admin page. I’ve also implemented support for ma.gnolia.com thanks to their support department sending me the code.
You can download from the Project Page. Complete (and hopefully user friendly) instructions are there as well.

@jneuenhaus,
fochsenhirt is right. Check your image path.=C=
Thanks everyone…problem solved!
For some reason, I am having a tough time upgrading to the newer version. I deactivate the old version and have even tried deleting all applicable files from my webserver. I upload the new files and when I check my admin panel, it says 1.14, but I’m not getting the new icons to display. I can’t seem to figure this out. My dlog is located at https://www.jimday.net. If you have any ideas, I’d REALLY appreciate your help.
Hello Cal,
I’m getting the following error in the options section of the WP admin panel.
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/rawgreed/public_html/wp-content/plugins/blogbling/wp-notable.php on line 205
In addition on the main page I am getting:
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/rawgreed/public_html/wp-content/plugins/blogbling/wp-notable.php on line 99
I’m using WP 1.5.
My options are set to
Icons per Row: 14
Image Path: /wpcontent/plugins/blogbling/images/
Spacer String: Non-Breaking Space
Days Between Version Check: 2I would really like to use this on my blog https://www.rawgreed.com
Thanks,
Andy
Hi Cal,
Sorry for the post again, I would really like to start using the plugin you made. My blog is getting some positive press and it’s good to have social bookmarking functionality. Thanks for reading.
Andy
