PressIt – Bookmarklet missing in 2.5

Huh. It is missing. Weird.

Well, the bookmarklet was removed here, so you can find the code for it there: https://trac.www.ads-software.com/changeset/6903

I have not tried the “JustBlogIT” extension, but ScribeFire works okay for me.

This is a serious oversight, fortunately ScribeFire works more or less OK, except it doesn’t relate to Bunny’s Technorati tags.

It amazes me that this feature was dropped.

According to Matt on the wp-testers mailing list,

“It will be back and better than ever in 2.6.”

Back in 2.6 – you (Matt) gotta be kidding !! It can be better in 2.6 but why take something so useful away in 2.5? – makes no sense.
Anyway I looked at the code and that is what I was tryin to do – i.e. post the javascript text to bookmarklet.php – but I keep getting the error mentioned above every time I Publish or Save as draft.
Cant get past that one.

Wow!

I was looking forward to using this nifty little tool, however it is just not going to happen with 2.5

I and from reading around a bit now, cannot be the only person who is pretty disappointed with this really handy function not being included in 2.5

Rather than wait for the ‘powers that be’ [and full respect to them!] to hatch 2.6, I was wondering if we could maybe sort out a makeshift solution in the near future? jmax already seems to be on his way, sooo … surely we can figure this out?

A quick update for a workaround!

Try this plugin out …

I had the bookmarklet saved in Safari for both LinkIt and PressIt, and both bookmarklets still work after upgrading.

What’s annoying is that I can’t add the bookmarklets on a new computer.

Thanks for the answer
