TwitterPress 0.1 preview version ready to download!

PHP, Twitter, Wordpress, Wordpress Plugin July 27th, 2007

TwitterPress is a wordpress plugin which mashup Twitter and your Wordpress blog. TwitterPress was inspired by AlexKing’s Twitter Tools.

 This is a 0.1 preview version, I was suposed to implement more features and enable more options inside it, however some plan changed and I suddenly become very busy these days.(Life is random, isn’t it?) So I have to release this preview version out just in case I was sucked in some works so TwitterPress may be delaied too long.

Features:

TwitterPress 0.1 have following features:

  • Display your twitter friends on your blog, like any other Social Network did
  • Display your friends (on twitters)’s latest update, so you and your reader can easily discover some topics inside your friends network
  • Automatically send twitter when you post new blogs, so your friends will get notified and come to read

I plan to add more in the near future:

  • More widgets, so you have more flexibilities to add twitter friends, latest updates on your blog
  • Lightbox style display of twitter friends on the blog
  • Friend of friends browser in Ajax
  • Add twitter friends directly from blog
  • Integrate twitter account with blog comment users
  • and more…

How it look like:

This is a screen shot from my Chinese blog, I put TwitterPress in my right side bar. (see the red arrow pointed part)

How to install:

  • Download TwitterPress (current version 0.1 preview)
  • Decompress into your wordpress’s “wp-content/plugins” directory, make sure the “cache’ directory inside ‘TwitterPress’ directory is writable by your web server (simplest way is set to 777 or ‘a+w’)
    • unzip TwitterPress-x.x.zip
    • chmod 777 TwitterPress/cache
  • In your wordpress admin page’s “plugins” tab, activate TwitterPress plugin
  • Then you will have a new Option tab named “TwitterPress”, setup your Twitter account there
  • Navigate to wordpress admin’s “presentation/widgets” tab, and you will find a “Twitter Press” widget ready to use, drag it to your sidebar.

Download

Thanks
