That’s funny, we just added Auto Twitter! I could try to find the files in the directory, zip them up, and email them to you?

Initially I wanted to find an all-in-one type solution for posting to FB and Twitter (and Google+ as well, but I wonder if that social media outlet is too new to have plugins for posting to it automatically anytime a new post is made on a WP blog… I couldn’t find any). It seems that using a single plugin for each one individually is a better bet, however.

FPMSummer, we never could get it to work so we had no choice but to give up. We are now using Add Link to Facebook (by Marcel Bokhorst) and Auto Twitter (by Unreal Media) instead and they are working fine.

BackupWordPress looks good.

I was also considering EZPZ One-Click Backup.

Will it gum up the works if I install both and try them out?

It does! And it’s much more simple than trying to figure out FeedBurner.

Just FYI, once the plugin is activated you end up here:

Jetpack supercharges your self-hosted WordPress site with the awesome cloud power of WordPress.com. To enable all of the Jetpack features you’ll need to connect your website to WordPress.com using the button to the right. Once you’ve made the connection you’ll activate all the delightful features below.

Clicking the button takes you to a page where you enter your WordPress.com username and password. Once your accounts are connected you’re good to go, it would seem.

OK, I will try it!

This blog belongs to a friend of mine in Chicago. If you scroll down a little bit you will see on the right-hand side (above “Archives” and “Meta”) she has a box that says “Subscribe to Little Wonders” and there’s a box where you just type in your email address and you will receive a message anytime she posts a new blog.

Unfortunately I still get the blank screen even when using the Twenty-Eleven theme and with all plugins except the Simple Twitter Connect ones deactivated. Thoughts?

I put the URL of the site in the Callback URL and then went through the authenticate process again. Now instead of getting the PIN I just end up at a blank screen after authorizing the app. Is that supposed to happen?

Does the current version of WordPress have an option that is already installed and I’m just missing it? I’m reading more about FeedBurner and in one place it says “[i]f you are using a popular blogging platform or publishing tool like TypePad, WordPress, or Blogger, you likely publish a feed automatically.”

I just noticed that. Chalk that one up to a big “duh me!”

I’d just like to say thanks to cjhmdm and alchymyth for passing along the solution from that other forum. It worked for me!

Thanks alchymyth. I will have to check out that post in greater depth. I only scanned through it yesterday, but it looked like there was a solution in there somewhere.

This is an example of a blog post where he did not force spaces:

Oh my gosh, I feel like such a moron!! It was right there all the time and I just didn’t see it because I was looking for something more complicated. *facepalm* Thank you both!!!
