Hi Clarke,

Check the project page. I gave you credit for the icons there and in the code. I looked at your plugin and while it did work…well, I like taking things to the ridiculous extreme. ??

I didn’t think about notifying you. Sorry. No hard feelings. Feel free to pick it apart make it better. (God knows it could be better.)

p.s. I love your theme for K2. It’s on my road map to implement that on my site.

Vryce,

This is an issue I have with all my plugins. In WP2.0 they’ve got the little fade box happening at the top. I’m going to figure that out and update them all to use that.

Hi,

Just what it says. It’s a file that can contain PHP functions your theme needs to operate. It looks like it’s just a way to separate them from the main theme files for convenience sake.

I could be wrong…

Snowangel,

Grab a copy of my alexify plugin and look at the JavaScript. No need to install it, just untar it somewhere and open the file. It should be exactly what you are looking for. A couple of mods to make it do what you want and you are done.

If you don’t want to download it just go to my blog and view source. Look for “function showAlexaPopup”. That’s the code you want.

Update:
1.0 01/30/2006 – Cal
Removed the code that limited this to the main page. It should now work in all WP pages. Thanks to Thomas-DK to pointing this out to me.

FWIW,

I downloaded and installed this. After figuring out the permissions issue on some of the directories I finally got FCKEdit to come up. However, the spell checker installed on my server (I am root) is aspell and the version I have must not be the one the developer coded against. It did not like many of the switches that FCKEdit was trying to pass in and even after I commented them all out, it still would not work.

Not dissin the plugin, just sharing my experience.

stylefetish,

Please try it now.

stylefetish,

Fixed. Thanks for pointing that out.

UPDATE:

I just upgraded to WP20 and wp-alexify works just like it did in 1.5. I did find that if you put a title tag in your anchor tag that it overrides the popup.

New Version available 0.5.3

This one has been checked with WordPress 2.0.

– New: Show Image checkbox.
You can now decide whether to show the image from AOL. The default for this option is OFF so is you install this version and want to show the image you will need to go to the options page and enable it.

Sorry you’ve had a problem with the image. This version includes a checkbox on the options tab to allow you to decide whether you want to display the image or not. If you choose not to it does not make the status a link, it simply displays the status. Let me know if this works for you.

Check the very top of the online-status.php and the very bottom. Make sure there are no extra lines above the <?PHP and no lines below the ?>

Let me know if this solves your problem.

Always happens, I forget something. Thanks to Ravi Udeshi for pointing out the bug to me. The current version is 0.5.2. If you downloaded earlier, grab this one and just drop in place.

Ok, here is a real quick hack of the code with the registration key in place. You do have to go register to get the key but it shows the cute little icon and the entire thing is a link to AIM.

if (!isset($_REQUEST[‘line’])) {
function online_status() {
$if_offline = OSPATH . ‘?line=off’;
$if_online = OSPATH . ‘?line=on’;
$address = ‘https://big.oscar.aol.com/&#8217; . ACCOUNT_NAME . ‘?on_url=’ . $if_online . ‘&off_url=’ . $if_offline;

echo ‘<img src=”https://api.oscar.aol.com/SOA/key=&#8217; . AIMKEY .$
include($address);
echo ““;
}
} elseif ($_REQUEST[‘line’] == ‘on’) {
echo(‘<b>online</b>.’);
} else {
echo(‘<b>offline</b>.’);
}
?>

It worked for me without registering. It even let me check my wife’s account so I assume you can check anyone.
