(Well, apart from Technorati's own automated indexing, which picks up links marked with a rel=tag attribute, which does get added by this script.)

The script does in no way integrate with Technorati; you have to type the tags into the Tags: field once for them to show up on posts. The script homepage answers the question of how to restyle the bullet list to something else.

Dammit...I meant [div class="tags"][/div], but it went invisible because I'm a no-codew muppet

Looking through the code (and not being a code wizard by any stretch), it looks like there's a bit that takes out any

tags and puts them in the header...would this be why the tags to technorati I had previously put on posts don't show in the editor? And are they still there but invisible (functionality alone is fine with me as long as technorati gets the tags)? And last of all, any way I can jigger it so the delicious tags appear in a line and not a bullet list? Cheers...AA

That has been an option all along; the URL you get to specify upon initial installation and when clicking the Tags: label is the URL that gets linked to. That it contains another default unless you change it does not mean that you could not edit it to link to anywhere, even technorati, should you so prefer.

Indeed the script picks up the location posts are published to (the blogger permalink tag isn't available anywhere on the publish page, unfortunately). ftp isn't supported yet. If reinstalling the latest version and reconfiguring (clicking Tags:) doesn't fix your problems, describing their nature in greater detail might help me address them. I've been putting off the ftp bits as it's kind of boring work and I don't have access to a testing environment for them myself; bribery might help with that. :-)

I have been putting off, perhaps permanently, fully automated del.icio.us updates, as it would require you to store passwords in the script configuration (which is a bad idea, security wise) and because it would make the script less robust (as there are many things that could go wrong, and would not show you what failed how).

I also warmly recommend commenting this script at the script's homepage above, as I get notifications about them there, which I do not get here.

Actually, I am getting a similar problem to Robert- I think the issue is that it is somehow getting the URL from where the item is published, rather than from the blogger permalink tag.

 
Adrian Warnock User

OK
I sussed the problem.... I wanted to have the tags linking to the general tag page ie where others are posting on the subject http://del.icio.us/tag/yourtag rather than the one that includes the username!

Any change of having that as an option that wouldnt switch off the submission process, also, what about automating the submission to save a couple of mouse clicks?

 
Adrian Warnock User

I have tried this, and it seemed to work, except for the minor point that nothing actually got added to delicious! Was I doing something wrong?

Here is the page of the post that was generated-

They are comma and/or space delimited, whichever you prefer. Just as Del.icio.us tags, you can't have space characters in tags though, so even if you use commas, do not expect My trip to San Francisco come out as one tag.

Are the tag comma delimited?

I see the 'link to delicious' link once saved, so it's not completly automatic?

 
Johan Sundström Script's Author

I haven't tested it with non-Blogger-published blogs yet, so the fault is probably mine. If you could save a copy of the "Published!" page (HTML only is fine) and post a link to it, I am quite confident I could make it work with your setup too, as long as all the information that is needed to create the link can be inferred from that page.

The Blogger hosted Published page needs a bit of client side parsing to get the job done; I would assume something similar for your use case.

 
Robert Griff... User

Having installed this, all works well for me, except the "post to del.icio.us" link doesn't contain the correct url for the blog-entry. For example it creates "http://del.icio.us/robandwend?v=3&url=http://rg.ii.net/blog//blog/index.html&...etc...
The problem is that this is pointing to my index page, not the specific post, and the URL contains /blog/ twice (it should just be once).
Does anyone have any idea's what I've not done, or done wrong.
Many thanks.
