I want your help to understand some technical features of it, please tell me can you be able to help me out…..
abercrombie at 2009-07-03T07:21:28.
Hope to be better. Better means more features!^
ed hardy at 2009-07-03T07:21:09.
This is great news. Best of luck for the future and keep up the good work.
Chris at 2009-06-29T18:26:12.
Would it be possible to have an option to turn all of the links generated by this plugin into “nofollow” links? Who wants search engines to care about the links that we put there only for humans and their social networks?
Ingo at 2009-06-27T15:53:54.
Hi! Great Plugin… but unfortunately german umlauts don’t be displayed correct. Could you please add the utf-8 thing to the [TITLE], or can you tell me how to fix this? Thanks a lot!
Dan Blackburn at 2009-06-25T02:44:39.
Be careful using this plugin. I do not know why, but after an article is tweeted, my blog becomes inaccessible. As soon as I decativate the plugin, the site comes back. It’s a shame because it’s really quite cool and I want to use it, but my blog has just been down for the last 2 days because of this plugin.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T10:58:30.
Try it now, Th8.us (the default URL shortening service) is back online and should have no more issues.
ShaolinTiger at 2009-06-19T03:22:13.
Still waiting for Facebook and now I’m wondering if you’ll be adding support for su.pr?
Adam Sheck at 2009-06-18T21:36:37.
I tried installing Tweet This on my blogsite, and it messed up the homepage. All other pages were fine, but it only showed first two and a half blog posts and the background jpg didn’t show up either. All went back to normal after uninstalling it. Is there an incompatibility with latest version of Wordpress? Help!
Adam
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T21:40:14.There were problems with the default URL shortening service that should be fixed now.
Grischa at 2009-06-15T03:28:01.
I have a question about the images (buttons) you’ve created. What is the license for them? Am I allowed to use them in another context?
Thanks for information.
Tony Page at 2009-06-15T02:26:14.
Hi Richard,
I’m sorry to say that I’ve had to take your plug-in off our blogs because it caused serious intermittent loading problems, and rendered wordpress admin functions unusable. No server errors, but page loading either very slow (minutes) or usually never finished. A minute later, accessible. Especially bad over the last three days. We are hosted at pair networks in the US. Is this something to do with Th8.us being overloaded, or something else? Access varied between countries, US best followed by UK and the Australia (where we’re based) and Hong Kong.Regards,
Tony
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T10:59:24.Yeah, Th8.us was the issue. Try it again now; I’ve got Th8.us back online and it is stable now because I removed hit counters and URL lists.
Johan at 2009-06-12T10:50:02.
Hi I tried to use the plugin on mu wordpress and deleted it because my sub site could not load. Through CP I deleted the plugin but am getting a 500 server error now and have no idea how to fix it.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T21:42:40.Don’t know about that. The plugin should not cause issues now because I fixed my URL shortening service Th8.us.
Vin at 2009-06-10T11:18:35.
Hi Richard,
I noticed this morning that when the url shortening service chosen in the settings is down, it creates a bunch of nasty php “connection refused” error messages on the blog. It would be great if you could add some error handling to deal with this more gracefully.
Thanks
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T21:43:50.I’ll try doing that next version. I thought the code handled that but it doesn’t. Th8.us shouldn’t go down again as I’ve removed hit counters, phoning home from the plugin, and URL lists, but it still won’t regain it’s trust-worthiness till the year’s end.
Constantine Markides at 2009-06-10T01:39:42.
Hi Richard.
Thanks for the great plugin. I use the Elegant Grunge Modified theme, which frames all photos, and I’m having trouble using your plugin because it creates a large square frame around all the icons. Right now I have disabled all of my frames so that I can use your plugin, but it is possible for me to continue to have frames around my photographs while disabling frames around the Tweet This icons. To do this, I need the name of the image class for all of the Tweet This icons. Is there such a thing? If so, I would really appreciate you telling me exactly what it is.Thanks,
Constantine
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T21:44:52.Image class is “nothumb”. Future versions will allow you to set this manually.
graymatter7 at 2009-06-06T02:11:58.
Aliasing seems to be broken. The url trimmer seems to work, and generates a url like this: http://fkd3d.th8.us
But following that link just goes to that link–not the aliased url– and gives this message:
No WPMU site defined on this host. If you are the owner of this site, please check Debugging WPMU for further assistance.
I like the plug-in–and wonder if something is broken on my end–but think it is something on th8.us that isn’t working.
Am I wrong?
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-06-06T06:35:51.Ugg… why does that happen? It did this once before. I figured it out. I distilled the httpd.conf Apache configuration file before, but it must’ve been regenerated and it updated it wrongly to use thripp.com’s .htaccess file (even though th8.us is in a separate cPanel account). Terrible behavior. I’ve fixed it for good this time. Sorry for the trouble.
S. at 2009-07-03T05:55:52.
Richard,
How can I add a hashtag to this:[TITLE] [URL]
Am I able to put for example #happiness on that same line?
Thanks much!
S.
S. at 2009-07-03T06:12:08.I figured it out from other comments!
I am using %23happiness.
[TITLE] [URL] %23happiness
This works great.
Thanks, Richard!

Hi!
Thanks for the plugin. Very useful. I don’t seem to be able to use # or ” characters in the tweet text. I need those characters. Any way to use them?
Thank you.
rpOliveira at 2009-06-02T10:48:26.I tried to edit the code but I can’t use the character # in the tweet. I want the tweet made by Tweet this to always end with a hashtag (a word that starts with a #) so I really need this. Any idea how to do it?
Thanks.
rpOliveira at 2009-06-03T11:46:42.I solved the problem. Replaced # with %23 (url enconding).
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T21:45:56.Thanks, I’ll add a replacement for that in v1.4. I thought the urlencode function did that.
Kathy at 2009-05-28T06:03:37.
I have Tweet This installed on 2 sites. On the first installation, I encountered no problems. The installation on the second site has me baffled. The icons do not align properly. The Tweet This icon is higher than all other icons.
I’ve tried left, right, center and various sizes. Suggestions?
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T21:53:18.Not sure, but other people have had issues too. Will work on for v1.4.
webmaster tools at 2009-05-27T23:29:51.
I just installed the latest version plugin in few of my blogs. It working perfectly. I was looking for a stumble upon and tweet this button. Now I got many options.
Thanks for your great plugin.

Is it somehow possible to add tr.im URL shortener service to this great plugin? It could be nice as all my URL’s are shortened with this one…
It gives me very good statistics about my URL’s.Great plugin. Thanks.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T21:54:36.No because they limit you to 48 URLs per day… and you can only ping the service 10 times per hour.
Akash at 2009-05-18T09:24:03.
Thanx for this very nice plugin
I have it on my blog and it works perfectly… I am so happy to use it…!Thanx mate…!
Confused at 2009-05-17T22:15:55.
how do i move the icons? it’s too close to my audio player in my blog posts. i want a simple break () how do i do this?
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T21:58:53.Nothing you can, except adding the break in your theme at the end of the posts or modifying the code. Sorry.
Adrienne at 2009-05-17T02:40:06.
Your style file seems to be missing. I looked at your source to see if there was one being called for and tried to go directly to the linked style file but got a 404 Not Found message for http://thripp.com/wp-content/themes/default/style.css which is the style file used by http://richardxthripp.thripp.com/tweet-this
Eric at 2009-05-16T23:24:09.
th8.us is currently offline, rendering this plugin inoperable. It now causes WordPress to stall when loading pages, rendering sites inoperable. Suggest changing the shortening URL, or allowing choice in settings of various services.
Adrienne at 2009-05-17T02:51:42.I think the latest version has a built-in redirect to use TinyURL if th8.us is down. But the redirect doesn’t seem to be working.
From the README file:
You can pick Adjix.com, bit.ly, h3o.de, hex.io, idek.net, is.gd, Lin.cr, Metamark.net, ri.ms, Snurl.com, Th8.us, TinyURL.com, Tweetburner.com, urlb.at, or Zi.ma as your short URL service. Or, you can use local URLs, like http://yourblog.com/?p=123.Try adjusting the settings to use one of the other URL shortening services.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T22:00:23.Yeah it’s back now sorry. The redirect is in the code but fails for some reason. There should be no more problems with Th8.us as I scaled back the features a lot to reduce load.
redbourn at 2009-05-16T12:07:44.
My TwitThis options only show …
button style
left, right or center
Display - both, permalinks or listing pages.
Unsurprisingly, the link doesn’t appear on any of my pages.
Any suggestions as to why I’m not seeing the option’s page that is displayed here?
thanks,
Mike
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T22:02:05.Make sure that the link text is not set to [BLANK] and the icon is not set to “No icon.” Make sure that “Insert Tweet This links” is checked. Other than that, I don’t know.
Deal Kong at 2009-05-16T03:49:59.
This plugin worked fine on my blogs for about a week then when I tried adding it to another blog it caused it to hang. Eventually it started crashing my other blogs that used to work as well. I had to remove it unfortunately, an update would be nice, I really liked this plugin!
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T22:02:55.Should be all better now, because I fixed Th8.us by stripping it of its feature.
Juanita at 2009-05-13T12:53:57.
I need a MySpace button for tweet this for my website http://www.jack-in.com Please. I have the code I just need the button. I can recode the plug-in myself if you can send me the graphic. I don’t have the specs or layers to create a decent one myself. Would be greatly appreciated.
Chris Pratt at 2009-05-12T16:58:36.
A very slight change to the plugin code would allow “Tweets about this post” to still work with services such as Bit.ly that use case sensitive links.
I’m presuming that this is a problem because the Twitter search API itself is not case sensitive. However, since the API will return at worst too many results (i.e. unrelated), you can then filter the unrelated ones out in the foreach loop. You only need to do a case sensitive check for the url in each of the tweets returned by the API and throw out the ones that fail.
Of course, this will add a tad bit of overhead, but it should be inconsequential on all but the busiest of blogs, and any caching would pretty much render its effects moot.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T22:04:38.I’ll consider that for next version. I’ve never used a foreach loop (I know that’s nuts but it’s true).
Eric at 2009-05-11T04:31:36.
Is there a way to edit the code to make the tweet this button open twitter in a new window - target=blank
Thanks
Eric at 2009-05-16T19:51:12.Anyone have a suggestion on how to alter the code so twitter opens in a new window - target=blank
sci-guys at 2009-05-10T19:35:48.
love the plugin.
I have one question though. when using this with spiral web consultings podcasting plugin, it appears that the things inserted by tweet this are breaking their podcast feed.
using tweet this inserts some next to each item, which is fine with the normal feed, but not with the feed generated by the podcasting plugin.
is there some way to removed the on each button?
Thanks
sci-guys at 2009-05-10T19:37:47.like duh, i’m an idiot. your pages are not displaying the & nbsp ; tags that I put in there.
the nbsp spaces are the issue I’m talking about above, even though you can’t see them
Sanne (Hochzeitslocation) at 2009-04-30T12:00:40.
Hi Richard, great plugin and very useful. As others I experienced that Twitter is not always working. Thanks a lot!
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T22:10:17.You’re welcome! Any stability issues with plugin should be fixed now.
mark harrison at 2009-04-29T11:35:01.
I think this plugin is excellent. Only problem I have is that there is a border around every icon which i cannot remove through my own files. Any ideas?
photoframd at 2009-04-28T15:46:13.
Tweet This v 1.3.9 was causing “Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded” on my blog. I deactivated the plugin and the errors stopped. But, I really like this plugin and have not found a replacement.
I re-activated it but disabled the “Display ‘Tweets about this post’list below Tweet This links”. That’s the source of the problem. I also am using “Local URL Service”. It seems to be working fine this way.
Let me know if you implement a fix.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T22:12:04.Cool, that should always fix it. But Th8.us’ slowness is now fixed.
ShaolinTiger at 2009-04-24T07:29:14.I’d love a share to Facebook then it’d be set, Twitter + Stumble + Facebook conquer all of the major grounds in the current market.
The Share to Facebook code is fairly simple, but I need the graphic!
Aaron Clausen at 2009-04-24T04:53:55.
Hi All,
Great, simple plugin. I love it, BUT
ITS KILLING MY SITE. I am having the serious slow down issues of the other guys here too.
I also just upgraded to 2.7.1 also, and that has NOT resolved the problem, even after disabling and re-enabling the plugin.
Keen to use it, but I’ve had to disable it for now, as its literally KILLING the site. The slowdowns are enormous, the page never loads. And sometimes these weird errors appear.
Thx a lot
Aaron.
dog at 2009-04-24T11:56:54.
Aaron,
lemme know if you find a fix. I tried disabling the other couple plug ins and re-uploaded tweet this. Neither of which fixed the issue. For some reason, it worked fine for several days. This just popped up out of nowhere for me. You too?
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T22:14:17.Yeah, Th8.us was at fault. This is fixed now. For the largest speed up, disable list of related URLs and use local URLs for short URLs. The plugin will never touch an external server then.
dog at 2009-04-24T02:12:32.
I was enjoying this for the past few days. I am running wp 2.7.1 and the latest version of tweet this. Worked great. This afternoon the url stopped passing as a tinyurl to twitter and my site became inaccessible until I deactivted the plug in. I did get one error about 30 second time out.Are there any fixes for this?
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T22:15:14.It was Th8.us that slowed to a crawl, but that is fixed now. You can use local short URLs for maximum speed.
Bartjan at 2009-04-22T11:58:44.
I’ve been testing this plugin on my new layout (on a different domain in a test folder) but it keeps crashing the database and I have to FTP in and change the name (to deactivate it) before I can get it to work again.
It seems when I use my own URL instead of an URL shortener this doesn’t happen. However that gives me long URL’s. So I was looking into a way to make it better.
Using this plugin (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/link-shortcut/) we can make our own short URL’s which redirect (with a 302, but we can change that to a 301 for better SEO) to the longer URL’s.
However now I have to manually create the shortlink in this plugin and insert it in tweet this. It would be awesome if you could combine this plugin with yours so we can get full control over the short URLs and have all the linkjuice pointing to our own domain.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T22:16:51.You can use local URLs for this. The slowdown was due to Th8.us being overloaded but this is fixed. Th8.us, is.gd, TinyURL… these services all use 301 redirects.
Steve at 2009-04-21T20:48:28.
Hmmm, I’ll try posting this again because the last time it timed out. I read here that a couple people said that it was slowing down their sites and I was wondering if this issue has been fixed yet?
Thank you very much!
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T22:17:46.It’s fixed finally. The issue was overloading of the Th8.us, but it is blazing fast again due to a massive reduction in features.
Angela Baca at 2009-04-21T16:56:49.
I really enjoyed this explanation of how to Tweet. I offer free tips and articles for freelance writers and bloggers as well as a Free E-book of writing articles.
thanks, Richard!

Thanks for posting such a wonderful source of Twitter information. Twitter has become quite a social media tool, hasn’t it? I recently wrote a blog about Twitter on the internet, What the Tweet?. When you get a chance, please stop by and read it. I would appreciate any comments you have to offer on OceanZealot’s Ramblings
Juanita at 2009-04-16T10:04:34.can you add a post to MySpace button please here is their code
http://creative.myspace.com/design/_om/postmyspace/docsv2/US_english.pdf
I already have a temp version on my site but the look is not coinciding with your icons and I would have to edit your plug-in. I just figured you would want to do this yourself. It would be greatly appreciated. 
kunstgriff at 2009-04-14T17:42:39.
Somehow, sometimes, things are a little strange. Just decided to use your plugin today. At first I had to finish my theme. Everything’s fine so far. I see the buttons, exactly where I want them to be, the functions (Twitter it, add to delicious) are working, but half an hour after having sent a tweet, the tweeted post shows this message:
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/web160/klem08/ftproot/www.klemmchen.de/wp/wp-content/plugins/tweet-this/tweet-this.php on line 358.
It’s still there, and I have absolutely no idea how it could happen. Used your own “URL shortener” at first, then switched to Tiny and twittered once more… in both cases i receive this message. Oh, by the way: The error message disappeared inbetween for a few minutes. (After having added a post to delicious everything’s fine.)
This error was described earlier, but no solution offered.
THX for your ideas. I don’t want to remove the plug-in!
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T22:23:20.A few people have had that happen… disable the list of URLs in the options. Try local URLs.
mlando at 2009-04-14T16:37:36.
Is there a way to open the link from all the Social icon buttons in a new window? target_blank?
And I see how to add the twitter service button manually where I want them but I don’t understand how to add them for the other services, what do I need to change to get say: twitter, digg, delicious:
Thanks
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T22:24:14.No. Next version I add that. You have to go to the settings and check the boxes for each service.
Esteban at 2009-04-14T15:24:39.
Richard,
I added a facebook link to your plugin, if interested send me an email and I’ll shoot you the code!
Regards,

Ashmita at 2009-04-23T13:42:11.
Hi Esteban, I’m looking to add a Fbook link as well. Is there any possibility that you could email me at ashmita.maharaj[at]gmail?
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T22:25:05.Sure, go ahead and post code here or email to richardxthripp@thripp.com.
mark harrison at 2009-04-14T10:44:48.Hi
Does anyone know how to remove the borders around each of the icons?
I’m pretty good at Wordpress and html but not so great at modifying PHP code.Really apprecaite any help.
Thanks
rcb at 2009-04-12T13:27:24.
One problem is that if the permalink has a space in it (e.g. 2009/04/the website/), it will give errors with respect to fopen on line 29/30.
This can be fixed by adding in the function: function tt_read_file($url) {$url = str_replace(’ ‘, “%20″,$url);
Hope this helps.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T22:26:09.Okay thanks. I thought I was using urlencode. Fortunately most people do not use spaces.
Drew at 2009-04-09T17:03:41.
Ok….so if you like the plugin, you definitely will like the T-shirt
Tweet This & Tweet These shirts on American Apparel threads. Check them out.
Tom at 2009-04-09T12:05:52.
Hey, Richard. Want to use your plugin, but I get these errors before any post content:

Make Money Blog at 2009-04-01T00:24:48.
This plug-in is cool. Thanks for sharing. I included this plus-in to my other blog.
jiltin at 2009-03-31T18:49:23.
Richardxthripp,
I am really glad to get such a nice working plug-in from the first start. I just downloaded and installed. On my first pass itself, it started working. I have previously tried many tweet plug-ins and fed-up every time. One issue, though not major, issue - after this plug in enabled, my post listing responses are slow. At this time, I do not know whether it is due to plug-in or too many users on my page or bandwidth issue. I need to play more with this setups and master it.
Great work Richardxthripp! Keep it up!!
Thanks
Jiltin
Brett at 2009-04-01T23:44:13.
Jill,
I had a HUGE slowdown issue with this plugin, and it was resolved when I upgraded to WP 2.7.1
FoolishSage at 2009-04-02T00:25:01.
I’m on 2.7.1 and Tweet This nearly shut my site down. Initial page load goes to almost 30 seconds when I have it active. Had to shut it off. A real shame because I liked this plug in. Please let me know if it is improved.
Craig Ferguson at 2009-04-02T00:31:06.
Did the same to mine. This plugin fits my site perfectly, except for the slow down issues.
TwitW at 2009-04-15T04:37:01.
I, too, wanted to enjoy this plugin. Installed it over this past weekend, and it broke my RSS feed completely. Why? Due to severe slowdown of some sort. I deactivated only this plugin, and my site began functioning again. Don’t know why it was unhappy, but I can’t use it. Sorry…
FoolishSage at 2009-04-03T03:50:54.Started working again. I suspect the trouble was with the Twitter API, which had a few bad days this week.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T22:30:35.It was Th8.us guys… fixed now… if it’s still slow use local URLs. Sorry for all the trouble.
Nimwit at 2009-03-27T05:10:12.
The code you have for th8.us, is that the most up-to-date source code you have online to download. I’d like to play with it

Thank you Richard! Great tool for sharing your blogs on twitter.
I have added it to The 912 Project Fan Site.
Shopromo at 2009-03-20T07:03:08.
Hi,
I think this plugin is great but I have some bug though. I have installed it and just worked fine. A few hours later, I noticed this error message in my posts :
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /homez.42/shopromo/www/wp-content/plugins/tweet-this/tweet-this.php on line 358
Is there any solution else than disabling the plugin ? Because i just love this plugin and I don’t want to disable or to remove it.
Thanks.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T22:33:21.Uncheck “Display ‘Tweets about this post’ list below Tweet This links.” I don’t know what causes that.
Matt Langford at 2009-03-19T22:17:52.
Any chance we can get a FACEBOOK option to the plugin any time soon?
ShelbyLife at 2009-03-18T19:13:59.
i had installed the TweetThis plugin a couple weeks ago and tested it. it worked fine. but then i just suddenly started receiving this error -
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /var/www/vhosts/calvarydover.org/subdomains/shelbylife/httpdocs/wp-content/plugins/tweet-this/tweet-this.php on line 358
the only solution is to delete the plugin from my server.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T22:35:14.Uncheck “Display ‘Tweets about this post’ list below Tweet This links.” I don’t know what causes that.
Anonymous at 2009-03-17T19:17:16.
hi,
i opted for Th8.us in the settings but its still using local URLs.
am i doing something wrong?
thanks for the plugin!
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T22:36:25.That’s happening to me too, but I think for me it has something to do with Th8.us being on the same server. Try it again now as Th8.us is faster and more stable now. If it doesn’t work, switch to another service.
Heather at 2009-03-16T16:22:50.
Thank you SO MUCH for this plugin. It’s awesome! It worked immediately, and with just a few tweaks I got it just how I wanted on my site.
I’m not a coder at all, and would have never figured this out on my own. Again, thank you!
Mattb4rd at 2009-03-15T15:37:39.
I just installed the plugin and am having trouble getting the icons to line up horizontally like those in the screen shots. The only alignment choices I have are Left, Center, and Right, which stacks them vertically.
How do I arrange them horizontally?
Thanks for the great plugin!

I don’t Know about your blog’s design, but I think it may be because of your CSS. I am not sure Just telling you this. The Probability is 50/50
Essai Selvan at 2009-03-15T02:31:39.Awesome plugin, Thanks.
Exactly what I wanted. Being a twitter
maniac this made me to feel off from my
chair. Good one.
Stephen Elliott at 2009-03-14T21:35:21.
I had to take this off The Rumpus for now. It’s adding this extra line break after each post on the home page, even though tweet this is is setup to only show up on individual posts. That extra line break just makes the page look all funky. I would love to figure out how to get rid of that so I can re-activate this application.
Patricia Reszetylo at 2009-03-13T17:29:04.
Hi,
I’m wondering if it’s possible to turn off the external credit for the plugin. It’s probably my theme, but it make my header and footer look odd.
Darlyn at 2009-03-11T01:29:48.
Well i will try this plug ins to my newly site itsladieschoice.com, and this wordpress plug in twitter will help me a lot and my readers too. Thanks for sharing this.
HART (1-800-HART) at 2009-03-08T18:52:01.
I really like this plugin and have been incorporating this on most of my blogs .. however, this plugin breaks on WPMU versions unfortunately ~~
ramenstein at 2009-03-08T11:37:51.
Nice plugin. However whats *really* missing is ‘open in a new window’ option.
Alec Satin - Making Project Management Better at 2009-03-06T22:40:32.
Hi Richard,
Love Tweet This, and plan to turn it back on as soon as it stops stalling out with WordPress 2.7.1 and Feedburner. In brief, the blog feed at feedburner is timing out when Tweet This is activated. This just started with 2.7.1.
Alec Satin
David at 2009-03-08T18:37:42.
It seems I am having the same problem in WP 2.7.1. It really slows down the page load time too.
Stephen Elliott at 2009-03-14T19:14:52.I’m having the same problem. I love this plugin, but it’s really slowing down the loading of our homepage, even though we don’t display “tweet this” on the homepage. Also, it inserts an extra line beneath posts on the homepage, though again, it’s not displayed on the home page. You can see what I mean at http://www.therumpus.net.
Stephen Elliott at 2009-03-14T19:42:12.It doesn’t seem to be slowing down the page anymore. What happened? It is however still inserting a line on following posts on the homepage.
FoolishSage at 2009-04-02T00:27:27.I’m still getting the slowdown under 2.7.1, to the point that I had to shut the plug in off.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T23:11:13.Try it now… use local URLs and disable URL lists if necessary.
Grant at 2009-03-06T17:54:00.
Hi Richard
Great plugin, Thanks!
Kinda new at this, when I added the plugin, the images will not display.?.
Text is no problem, but images come as red X in box. Any idea of what I have done wrong?Thanks again
are you gonna eat that at 2009-03-05T13:16:04.
Hi,
I’m getting repeated messages like this in my RSS feed and also on my blog:Warning: fread(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/.noisemaker/jsallis/ugonnaeatthat.com/wp-content/plugins/tweet-this/tweet-this.php on line 30
But it comes and goes.
Any idea what I can do?
Thanks!
Brandon at 2009-03-03T21:52:35.
Just in case you’d like to see some problems/bugs, check out this latest error with your app: http://semcommonsense.com/tweetthis_screencapture.gif
My blog had no problems yesterday, but all of a suddent his showed up. I deactivated your version 1.3.9 of the plugin and it went away.
Thanks for the app regardless.
greg at 2009-03-04T14:23:12.
I’m having a very similar problem with 1.3.9. It was working just fine and then yesterday I started getting these errors:
[code]Warning: fopen(http://th8.us/api.php?url=http://www.sagerck.com/blog/economic-recovery/&client=Tweet+This+v1.3.9&format=simple) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Connection refused in /home/sagerck/public_html/blog/wp-content/plugins/tweet-this/tweet-this.php on line 29

…
[/code]There’s a lot more but just thought I’d give a taste. I couldn’t get this to go away so I was forced to deactivate the plugin
FoodRenegade at 2009-03-05T22:43:41.
So, I had this error too and disabled the plugin. I still hadn’t figured out how to put the plugin where I want it (both a TweetThis and StumbleThis button (no text) in my info box rather than at the end of the post, and just when I thought I’d have to live with it like that this error happened.
Let’s hope it gets resolved soon so that we can start using the plugin again!
greg at 2009-03-06T00:03:39.Hey Food Renegade. Since I wasn’t getting a response here and couldn’t figure out how to fix this problem I went looking for an apt substitute for my blog.
I found Twitter It! http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/twitter-it/
Which essentially seems to do the same thing as Tweet This, however it might only fulfill your Twitter needs.I hope this helps. I’ve been using this and have had zero problems now.
Cheers!
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T23:19:21.Yeah it was problem with Th8.us, should be over for good now.
John at 2009-03-03T21:41:01.
hey, i was wondering how I can get this plugin to show on the same line with another plugin, can anyone plz let me know what the php code is? I tried to call this plugin with the php template and the other plugin and i put it in a span but they show below each other and not on the same line, thanks.
FoodRenegade at 2009-02-28T21:53:11.Hi, I set this up and totally love it. I want to disable the automatic insertion of the button and move it to a different part of my page. I know I can do it by inserting the function into the desired location, but I’m wondering if there’s a way to do it with the Stumble This function too.
Also, is there a way to do it with a button instead of the small 16X16 pic and text?
Thanks!
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T23:28:47.Try this function:
tweet_this(’su’, ‘[TITLE] [URL]‘, ‘[BLANK]‘, ‘Share on StumbleUpon [[URL]]’, ‘tt-su-micro4.png’, ‘su’, ‘tt-image’, ‘Post to StumbleUpon’);
Full details are available in readme.
Rob at 2009-02-25T22:33:30.
Hey, Richard. We LOVE your plugin, but have been getting this error for a while, when not logged in as admin:
Warning: Attempt to assign property of non-object in /home1/insomnj0/public_html/theportablegamer/wp-includes/rss.php on line 449
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home1/insomnj0/public_html/theportablegamer/wp-content/plugins/tweet-this/tweet-this.php on line 358
Any thoughts?
Jeff@MySuperChargedLife at 2009-02-25T14:33:30.
Richard - I love your plug-in! The latest version (1.3.9) is fantastic. However, I am having one issue. On just one of my pages, I get the following errors:
Warning: Attempt to assign property of non-object in /home/mysuperc/public_html/blog/wp-includes/rss.php on line 449
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/mysuperc/public_html/blog/wp-content/plugins/tweet-this/tweet-this.php on line 358
If I deactivate Tweet This, then the errors go away. Here’s the URL to the page with issues:
http://mysuperchargedlife.com/blog/advertise/
I’d appreciate any ideas you might be able to offer to resolve this so I can continue using your plug-in. Thanks!
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-07-14T23:22:25.Don’t know what that is, try disabling Tweets about this post list.
Abe at 2009-02-20T22:45:07.
Hi,
I cant get the buttons to stay out the footer.
I have turned it off to stop this from happening but they are still there.
I really want to use this plugin, but if the problem persists I willbe forced to take it off.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-21T02:13:19.You can uncheck “Insert Tweet This message in footer” in the options to disable that, assuming you’re talking about the “Tweet This Post links powered by Tweet This v1.3.9, a WordPress plugin for Twitter” message.
roycifer at 2009-02-20T21:34:27.
is there a way to make the css class names specific to their respective services? so instead of class=”tt” for everything, make it class=”tt_twitter”, class=”tt_delicious”, etc so that we have more css styling control? thanks and great plugin!
roycifer at 2009-02-20T21:43:57.ha… i answered my own question. i added…
$a_class = ‘tt_twitter’;
$a_class = ‘tt_delicious’;
etc after each if statement that checks the service.
perhaps something like that can be integrated in the next release.
cheers!
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-21T02:08:22.The only way to do it without modifying the plugin is to disable auto-insertion and add this to your theme:
<?php echo get_tweet_this('twitter', '', '', '', '', 'tt_twitter', '', '') . ' ' . get_tweet_this('delicious', '', '', '', '', 'tt_delicious', '', '') . ' ' . get_tweet_this('digg', '', '', '', '', 'tt_digg', '', ''); ?>Maybe in the next release you’ll be able to set that from the options page.
David Bradley at 2009-02-20T17:25:02.
By the way…how i do control the position of the tweetthis icon (see e.g. http://bit.ly/brutal) I want it to be above the “related posts” but neither that related posts plugin nor tweetthis seems to have a call in single.php to allow me to position either.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-21T02:04:47.The only way is to disable “Insert Tweet This links” and add
<?php tweet_this('twitter'); ?>to your theme after the post content.
Barbara Holbrook at 2009-02-21T07:58:20.
I also want to reposition the links. These instructions work for adding the twitter link.
How do I also add the other links. Are they comma separated? And how do I determine the proper names for the links?
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-21T08:02:13.Here’s a list of them; you have to use each one separately:
<?php tweet_this('twitter'); ?>
<?php tweet_this(’plurk’); ?>
<?php tweet_this(’buzz’); ?>
<?php tweet_this(’delicious’); ?>
<?php tweet_this(’digg’); ?>
<?php tweet_this(’ping’); ?>
<?php tweet_this(’reddit’); ?>
<?php tweet_this(’su’); ?>
David Bradley at 2009-02-21T09:30:27.So manually add the php call for the plugin exactly where I want it? What’s the code?
David Bradley at 2009-02-21T10:30:03.Sorry, I was following the thread via email missed that response…
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-21T11:21:07.It’s alright. Email only shows you the comments in direct reply to yours.
Michael Schultz at 2009-02-20T15:07:54.
Yay! Tweet This v1.3.9 now works on my site. I don’t know what you did differently in this upgrade but everything is working now! No more get url/wrapper error messages. thanks!
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-20T15:18:39.You’re welcome! I think it’s because in v1.3.6 I added fall-back to curl if allow_url_fopen is disabled.
David Bradley at 2009-02-20T11:25:04.Does the “tweets about this post” function rely on the post having been tweeted using Tweet This? There seem to be no listings for various of my posts that have been tweeted?
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-20T11:29:48.No, but it only searches with the URL service you’ve chosen. So if you use Th8.us and someone tweeted your post with a TinyURL link, that tweet won’t show up in the list.
David Bradley at 2009-02-20T11:45:10.That’s a shame. Do you know of any tool that could search on the resolved URL, or might that be something you could code into TweetThis?
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-20T12:09:37.Twitter Search won’t let you search by the resolved URL, only the shortened version. I couldn’t find any tool to help. The only alternative would be to index short URLs from several services and do a boolean “OR” query to get the “Tweets about this post” list. Sounds complicated. Next version, maybe.
David Bradley at 2009-02-20T14:03:38.There are tools out there that resolve shortened URLs, so a mashup might be possible, perhaps?
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-20T15:15:03.No, because you have to search by the shortened URL to find them in the Twitter Search, not by the full URL. So the way to do it would be to store the shortened URLs as a serialized array on a per-post basis in the wp_postmeta table, then retrieve them for a search like “37258.th8.us OR tinyurl.com/5qw5k6 OR is.gd/eaZS.” It can be done; will take some work though.
David Bradley at 2009-02-20T15:21:36.Yes, I see the problem. And, of course, there’s always going to be another URL shortener that isn’t taken into account, so you’d miss those…still for the next version I’d vote for this to be included, it would make a blog much more active if the plugin could report back on as many URL shortens as possible.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-20T15:26:25.I could run the whole list through (18 services), but Twitter limits all searches to 140 characters… so you can search for at most 7 or 8 short URLs.
There are a lot of tweets about this plugin done with TinyURL instead of Th8.us, so I can see the benefit for the RSS feed lists. I’ll work on it for v1.4, which should be here by the end of the month.
Ben Shoemate at 2009-02-25T04:54:50.
Currently your search is ignoring case - that is bad. I get a lot of tweets showing up that are unrelated. Check out http://www.benshoemate.com/2009/02/16/a-primer-to-communication-1953-film/
Example:
is.gd/jLut IS NOT
is.gd/jlUt IS NOT
is.gd/jluT
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-25T11:39:31.Nothing I can do about that because Twitter Search is case insensitive. I added a warning for bit.ly and idek.net but apparently I need one for is.gd too because they also use case sensitive URLs (why why why?).
Ben Shoemate at 2009-02-25T14:46:58.Add a js check after the twitter results come in to at least filter them off the page.
Chris at 2009-02-19T23:59:02.
Unfortunately, since installing the update, my blog posts no longer validate as XHTML. The error is id’d with this plugin.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-20T02:45:27.Actually, Tweet This has had invalid HTML for quite some time; I wasn’t encoding ampersands and I was missing closing paragraph tags on the Tweet This links and footer message. I just uploaded version 1.3.9 which should fix the HTML, though I’ve only tested it with two themes; please let me know if it works.
Mini electric bikes at 2009-02-19T13:28:45.
I added it to Tweet This version 1.3; I using this version with my to blogs. when you select it in the settinngs a box comes up to enter you partner ID. You can also use the shorter ad.vu domain. I tried it out on my site, but switched back to my trusty Th8.us.
Kunal Jain at 2009-02-19T08:55:49.
Hey, I added the plugin to my blog with [Blank] in the text field to hide text as I only need the buttons. Unfortunately, if I do this, it just shows [Blank] on all my posts next to the Tweet This button. Please advise. Thanks!
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-19T09:10:40.Make sure to capitalize it like so: [BLANK]
Kunal Jain at 2009-02-19T09:42:40.Hmm. Thats what I had. But when I copied it from you comment to the text field it worked. Oh well, thanks!
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-19T12:12:47.You’re welcome! It could be that you had a space after it, like “[BLANK] “, which wouldn’t work.
Ange Recchia at 2009-02-19T00:15:35.
Hi Richard, I’m loving “tweet this!”
Any chance of adding “delicious this?”
Thanks
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-19T04:57:04.Thanks, Ange! I just added Delicious support in v1.3.8.
Bryan at 2009-02-18T06:59:04.
With 1.3.6, I am unable to select the “Insert Tweet This links” icon of the 2nd row, 3rd icon from left. Not sure why.
And also if I tick “Use “www.” instead of “http://” in shortened URLs”, my url will turn out to be http://www.www.bryanchung.sg. Double “www.”.
Bryan at 2009-02-18T13:26:23.Thanks for fixing it!
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-18T15:58:09.You’re welcome! The first problem was due to my mis-typing when adding icons in v1.3.6. The second had been around since v1.2, but I never noticed.
Bryan at 2009-02-18T16:15:57.Since 1.2 and no one informed you about it?! Gosh
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-19T03:37:28.I guess not many people tried using local URLs with www prefixing on a blog that already uses http://www.
Mike at 2009-02-16T23:00:43.
Yikes! Installation of your cool plugin was a breeze. No problems, no worries. Except for this scarey stuff that popped into your options page once Tweet This options were saved.
What do you think is happening here?

Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-17T00:11:28.That’s the phone home function, which tells me when you activate or deactivate Tweet This so I can automatically add your blog to the list. file_get_contents() is disabled on your server though, so it didn’t work.
I just uploaded Tweet This v1.3.5, which suppresses those error messages, and uses fread() instead of file_get_contents() is disabled. Try it out. With v1.3.4 short URLs shouldn’t have worked for you anyway because they’re fetched with file_get_contents() also. You could still set your URL service to “Local,” but you won’t have to in v1.3.5 if fread() is enabled on your server.
dk at 2009-02-17T01:22:13.
Tweet this is really screwiing up a blog I just put up for this week before the academy awards, about the academy awards…I am trying to deactivate it but it wont. (Get diff messages: “line such and such on php”, “already in header in archives” and I don’t know where that would be because I already deleted the posts where it said “tweet this” instead of showing the little mini-thumbnail that I have in my blog theme to show each article…the plug in seems to be tripping all up and I can’t get it out of my code and don’t know where or how to find it’s place where it is stuck in like glue and can’t get blog to work.
The trouble all began before I upgraded the plugin, and I did upgrade, automatically…
Still your plug in wont deactivate…
Additionally, Do i need to do the upgrade the way you describe–by deactivating and removing. I only installed the plug in yesterday, but this afternoon i had a notice on plugins page t hat it needs an upgrade, so i did it automatically…
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-17T05:06:55.It’s probably the same problem that Mike’s having, because Tweet This is trying to tell my server that you’ve deactivated so I can remove you from the blogs list, but file_get_contents() and fread() are disabled on your server. Just log into your FTP client and delete the tweet-this folder.
Deactivating and removing is only for upgrading from v1.2.3 to v1.3; automatic upgrading is fine now.
Anonymous at 2009-02-17T04:30:51.Wish it had worked! Actually had a few more errors. Here they are. Thanks, though, for the truly remarkable follow-up and fast response. I’m impressed!

Michael at 2009-02-17T04:32:03.And yes, this response is from me!
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-17T05:11:31.That means that both file_get_contents() and fread() are disabled on your server. I didn’t find a way to disable the error message for fread() though (should do that next version). You can ignore the message and use Tweet This by setting the URL service to “Local,” or fix that by setting allow_url_fopen to ON in your PHP configuration (php.ini).
Scott Quitter at 2009-04-24T23:56:39.
Richard,
Thanks for the great plugin. I got this message:
“Allow_url_fopen and curl are disabled in your PHP configuration.
All URLs will be served locally, regardless of your chosen URL service.
To fix this, try adding these lines to your php.ini file:
`extension = curl.so` and `allow_url_fopen = on`.”I searched my server and don’t have a “php.ini” file. Does it go by any other names? I really have no clue about php.ini files - making them or finding them on my site (other than a search). I really don’t know how to fix this problem so that I can use the short-url options. Therefore, I won’t use this excellent plugin until this mystery is solved.
Can you make a php.ini file that we can just upload to our site? I hope you can help me get this issue solved.
Cheers,
Scott
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-18T02:01:35.Try version 1.3.6 (my second attempt). You shouldn’t get any error messages, and Tweet This will try using curl instead. If that doesn’t work, a warning message will be shown in the options menu and only local URLs will be enabled. Let me know how it goes.
Michael at 2009-02-18T06:27:59.Perfect! Absolutely no error messages at all, and all the icons are inserting perfectly. Ooops. One small issue: The radio buttons in the “Insert Tweet This Links” are inconsistent. Selecting the silver horizonal bar (third icon, second row) can’t be selected, even though its button is highlighted, and selecting that icon doesn’t deselect the others. Otherwise, all seems wonderful! And thank you!
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-18T15:59:37.You’re welcome, and thanks a lot for the donation! That was some bad HTML on my part; I uploaded version 1.3.7 which fixes that and adds some new icons.
Michael at 2009-02-18T16:52:53.Awesome! Thanks again. A great plug-in, well worth supporting. Happy to put my money where your code is! LOL!
Michael/Venice Beach California.
PeterS at 2009-02-16T09:32:25.
I’ve updated Tweet This and the columns on my front page have gone crazy. I had no problem with the older version. It’s a great plugin, I don’t want to have to stop using it. Any ideas?
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-16T09:56:12.Nope, I don’t know what could be causing that. You could stick with the old version I suppose.
PeterS at 2009-02-16T10:02:52.Thanks for getting back so quick, Richard. I’ll stick with the old version.
Krikor Ohannessian at 2009-02-15T20:36:21.
consider adding http://www.tr.im to the list
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-16T01:58:12.They limit you to 10 shortened URLs per hour / 48 per day. Most blogs have a few hundred posts, and they’re all entered rather quickly into a URL service’s database upon activating Tweet This; tr.im’s limits are too restrictive.
richandcreamy at 2009-04-04T11:24:52.
sad!If there’s a way to petition them I’d sign up! I’m afraid that some of the url shortening sites might turn off people from clicking links just cause they’re not as widely used. Maybe I should use tiny url but then I’d feel like a noob. haha
Awesome plugin though!
richandcreamy at 2009-04-04T11:34:36.Just discovered that tweetburner is twurl.nl lol
Any way to get the link to show at the top of the post instead of the bottom?
Bernard at 2009-02-12T13:38:00.
Hello Richard,
I was wondering if I could bother you for just one answer to a question I think I’m close to resolving.On your blog page: -tweet this, you state (near the bottom) that: If you have a post or page for which you do not want a Tweet This link displayed, add a custom field titled “tweet_this_hide” with the value of “true”.
That is exactly what I need to do but not sure where to add that filed?
I’m assuming it’s somewhere within the tweet-this.php file code but where? I would appreciate any help here you can give me with this.
Thanks,
Bernard
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-13T02:07:06.When you’re editing a post or page, look for the “Custom Fields” box below the post box. If it’s not there, click “Screen Options” and then check “Custom Fields” (in WordPress 2.7.X). Enter Name “tweet_this_hide” and Value “true”, then click Add Custom Field.
Ozzy at 2009-02-11T22:06:17.
Thanks for the plugin! I will be instituting it on my blog! Great stuff!!
Jonas at 2009-02-10T07:15:53.
The new version really fucked up my page. The cache function made whole site go down.. Had to deactivate all plugins and reactivate them all but tweetthis. Something is really wrong.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-10T08:18:37.That’s weird! The cache has been in there since version 1.1, so if older versions worked for you it’s likely not that (I haven’t changed the caching functions).
Jason at 2009-02-09T20:24:36.
Richard, I’m trying to modify the placement of the buttons. I currently have it positioned 300px down from the top on the left side of the content. This is using your stock code with a class of ‘tweet-this’ on the paragraph.
But I’d like to have it positioned relative to the comments section, so the social buttons are at the bottom of every post, no matter the length. I’d use something like a ‘top:-350px’ if I could get your Tweet This code to trigger inside the comments block instead of the content block.
I’m only a tinkerer in PHP and WordPress. Do you have any tips for me?
(I’m also not sure why the last ‘Stumble This’ button is a bit wonky, but that’s simple CSS and I can take care of it )
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-09T21:17:01.There’s no hook to insert content in the comments section, so I can’t add that feature to the plugin. Uncheck “Insert Tweet This links” in the Tweet This settings, then add this to your theme in the comments section:
<?php echo get_tweet_this() . ‘ ‘ . get_tt_plurk_this() . ‘ ‘ . get_tt_buzz_this() . ‘ ‘ . get_tt_digg_this() . ‘ ‘ . get_tt_ping_this() . ‘ ‘ . get_tt_reddit_this() . ‘ ‘ . get_tt_su_this(); ?>
You can remove whatever services you don’t want to use. Keep in mind that they have to be activated in the settings for them to appear.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-09T21:19:40.Oops, nevermind about them being active in the settings. In fact, you should uncheck all the Insert links boxes so as not to have them appear twice.
Jason at 2009-02-09T22:11:57.Very sweet! Now they are vertically listed outside the content box to the left. They are 180 pixels above the comment box, so will be at the bottom of every post. Thanks for your help.
Leanne Boyd at 2009-02-08T23:45:19.
Hey there. LOVE the plugin. Just upgraded to 1.3 and there is a problem! The images were broken!
So inspecting the code, here is what is up… You need to code back in the FULL URL for the images!
You currently have:
/wp-content/plugins/tweet-this/icons/And it must be:
http://www.YOURDOMAIN.com/blog/wp-content/plugins/tweet-this/icons/Once I added this back in to the tweet-this.php, everything worked fine.
Thanks for your great work!
Leanne Boyd at 2009-02-09T02:09:57.Hello again… I’ve now wandered over to the control panel in WP… and none of the images are showing there, either… the coding needs the whole URL.
Also… I just discovered your addition to the footer, which has absolutely knocked my entire footer out of whack. But I’ve just found where to turn that off, in the control panel.
I guess one of my question is… if this plugin is for Twitter.. why are you adding all these other SM sites, ie. Plurk, Reddit, etc? There are many other plugins out there. I think you should focus on Twitter.
TonyP at 2009-02-09T02:46:55.I’m also having a problem with 1.3 with the icons. My blogs are resident at http://www.domain.com/subfolder/ and this is not being picked up. There are no icons on the settings page, the broken link is http://www.domain.com/subfolder/wp-admin/subfolder/wp-content/plugins/tweet-this/icons/tt-twitter.png.
As I have quite a number of blogs, hard-coding all of them would be a bit of a pain. Still, whereabouts in the code do I need to put in the url if I can’t sort this out
?TonyP
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-09T03:01:34.This was a bug I introduced in version 1.3. I just fixed it and uploaded version 1.3.1; the images should show up now. Plurk and Ping.fm are of interest to Twitter users. The others, less so, but I liked the icons assbach made so I wanted to modify them for the other services. They’re optional; you can just use Tweet This. They do add some bloat to the code, however…
Leanne Boyd at 2009-02-09T04:02:35.Perfect! Thank you so much
And TonyP… my blog is also in a subfolder. In fact, every blog I’ve created was in a subfolder. From the way this was coded, as well as your comment, I am guessing that all would work if the blog was in the root folder. Thanks for the heads up; now will consider using root folder, going forward.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-09T05:16:34.You shouldn’t have to do that… If v1.3.1 isn’t working as it isn’t for TonyP, open up tweet-this.php in a text editor and do a batch replace on “/wp-content/plugins/tweet-this/icons/” to “/blog/wp-content/plugins/tweet-this/icons/” (replace “blog” with whatever your subfolder is).
If this continues to be a problem issue I’ll add a box in the settings so you can specify an alternate path instead of changing the code.
TonyP at 2009-02-09T04:28:05.Hi Richard,
Unfortunately this does not appear to have changed anything for me, the links appear as before so the icons are not visible.
What did you change?
Tony
TonyP at 2009-02-09T04:33:12.Just noticed that although the readme gave the version as 1.3.1, the tweet-this.php file still says 1.3 - is this just a typo or is the wrong file in the zip?
Tony
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-09T05:10:14.Reading v1.3.1 here; I updated the version. I’m not sure why it still says 1.3 for you.
TonyP at 2009-02-09T05:15:15.OK, now we’re in business! I downloaded the one from wordpress.org istead of using the link at the top of this page and got the correct php file.
All is now working, thanks for the speedy action.
Leanne, you won’t have to give up your domain folders now…
All the best,
Tony Page
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-09T05:17:56.Great, you’re welcome! It might be the same issue of the browser cache on my server… I moved to WiredTree recently and Apache might not be configured correctly.
Glad that fixed it; bugs are no fun.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-09T05:13:50.Did you clear your browser cache? Clear WP-Cache or WP Super Cache’s files if you use those. Make sure your server has Expires and Cache-Control set correctly in the HTTP headers, or else your browser may load old versions from the browser cache.
When I switched over to a serialized array for the Tweet This options in v1.3, I created a new function called tt_options($key) to access them and did a batch replace on get_options to tt_options. This changed get_option(’siteurl’) to tt_option(’siteurl’) in the image insertion functions, which returns blank. v1.3.1 corrects those to get_option.
Michael at 2009-02-08T19:56:08.
Love this plugin, but I have never been able to get it to work. I um using PHP5 with allow_url_fopen enabled. However, I still get the message that get_file_contents is disabled on my server. I am using 1and1.com for hosting and I think I’m going to give them a call. Any other ideas?
PS I also get the error message that no suitable wrapper is found.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-09T02:59:42.Don’t know about the wrapper. Try using local URLs (last option in the URL services list). There are alternates to file_get_contents that I’ll investigate for version 1.4.
John at 2009-02-08T17:17:31.
OH, just a P.S. the icon folder DOES exist on the server in the tweet-this sub directory, so I am somewhat bewildered, but I am not that big on programming and techy stuff. It is probably something that I am overlooking I am sure?!?
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-08T19:53:06.Did you change the name of the wp-content folder? It’s hard-coded as wp-content in Tweet This; that’s why the images aren’t showing up. Upload the folder to /wp-content/plugins/tweet-this/icons/ and it should work.
John at 2009-02-08T22:51:54.Not quite the answer but close enough for me to get to it. I have 2 blogs in my domain so I simply needed to change all the /wp-content/plugins/tweet-this/icons/ to “my sub folder name”/wp-content/plugins/tweet-this/icons/ and that got it working. THANKS again for you speeding reply, YOU ROCK!
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-09T02:58:55.Thanks! I found out this was a bug I introduced by accident… Tweet This recognizes your blog subfolder in version 1.3.1, so you shouldn’t need a hack anymore.
Henning_K at 2009-02-07T14:47:18.
Hi Richard,
thank you a lot for this plugin. I’d like to bring forward one recommendation for improvement: it would be great if one could opt in / opt out for displaying the icon / link on static pages on the options page. Not being the perfect coder (and using the K2 theme), I am somehow batteling with removing the icon from static pages (despite your short explanation above)…
Regards
Henning
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-08T04:11:02.Check “Hide Tweet This on pages” in the settings and report back to me.
john at 2009-02-04T03:52:28.the only thing you need now is support for
Stumble Upon
Yahoo Buzz
Reddit
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-08T04:08:39.I added those three in Tweet This 1.3; thanks for the suggestion.
Rob at 2009-02-03T23:04:27.Hey, Richard! Great plugin! LOVE the new additions and the other services on there. I’m wondering if there’s a way to style this a bit. The icons/words kind of spread, scattershot, across the bottom of our posts. Can we get them to layout nicely in a row or in a column or something?
Thanks for all your work! You can see what I’m talking about at the portable gamer dot com. Pick a post, and scroll to the bottom.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-05T09:16:25.It looks pretty good to me! Did you fix it by entering [BLANK] for the link text? That’s why I do on my blog too, because I use the custom buttons.
Jason at 2009-02-03T22:13:06.Thanks for this great plugin. I’ve installed it at my site and even wrote an article about it here: http://www.mesmerlab.com/update-wordpress-plugin-tweet-this/
Keep up the good work!
JoSe at 2009-02-02T18:14:37.
Hi Richard, nice meeting you. Wonderful idea, but can you add cli.gs ? I already use a plugin in WP that not only sends my shortened link post to my twitter account but also tracks it through cli.gs and G Analytics.
If I can centralize all analycs under one or two providers will be the best for me.Regards,
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-08T04:14:06.I tried and I couldn’t get their API to work right. I could only get a short URL for the first post on one page and then it would appear 30 times with different aliases on my Cli.gs account. It stumped me… none of the other URL services did that.
I was going to add it in 1.3 if not for that. Maybe I’ll talk with the developer and figure it out for version 1.4…
Wavedancer at 2009-02-01T11:34:56.
Hi there,
I want to know if I can link the tweet button from left to the right. No alternative larger image or something.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-08T04:20:04.I added an “Alignment” option to the settings in version 1.3. You can set it as Left, Right, or Center to position the Tweet This Post link.
John A. Simpson at 2009-02-01T06:30:34.
Thanks for the plugin. I love it. I just put it on all four of my blogs.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-01T06:45:54.You’re welcome! That’s great. I added your blog to this list here.
Andrew at 2009-01-30T13:38:05.
I really like this plugin. I use it on my website. I wanted to request a feature. I use bit.ly for my URLs. Could you make it so we could associate our bit.ly account with the URLs generated by your plugin? It would be cool to be able to track click rates. Keep up the good work!
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-01-30T20:59:41.I was hoping I could do that by the bit.ly API, but I tested it with my username and API key and it still wouldn’t add the URLs to my account. I guess they don’t let you do that.
Andrew at 2009-01-30T21:16:19.You might want to have a look at TwitterFeed. I made the suggestion to you because they have a service that takes an RSS feed and delivers notice of new blog posts onto your Twitter. You can choose from a variety of URL shorteners, one of which is bit.ly. You can enter your API key and track the clicks you get from those links. Check it out.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-01-30T21:47:58.Cool, I’ll have to find out how they do that. So many features…
Jed at 2009-02-28T01:39:33.
I’d like to add another voice requesting this feature. It would be tremendously helpful!
Michelle at 2009-01-29T21:40:54.
Great concept, scrolled the comments first and did not see this issue posted–
every post has various numbers of birds on them. Some have two, others have 8. I’m using only the default version and have not made any coding changes; this was immediate. What might be causing this?
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-01-30T10:58:56.I don’t know; I’ve not seen that before. I just finished working on version 1.2 though, and the bird is gone (Twitterific didn’t like me using their logo). Try it out; it might fix the problem.
Greg Bussmann at 2009-01-29T19:49:16.
I love the plug-in, I just put it on my blog
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-01-30T10:56:24.Thank you very much, Greg! Check out the new version 1.2, just posted.
Marian Sparks at 2009-01-29T17:40:07.
Hi Richard,
I’d love to use your plugin (I’ve also looked at TwitThis). I’m on Wordpress 2.7. Any chance you’re going to release a compatible version soon
? Or is anyone on this comment stream throwing caution to the wind and using Tweet This on WP 2.7 with no issues…?Cheers,
Marian
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-01-29T19:42:03.I just upgraded to WordPress 2.7 and Tweet This still works fine.
Marian Sparks at 2009-01-30T00:19:20.Hi Richard!
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly and for the vote of confidence!! I’m now using plugin on my site!
Appreciate it!
~Marian
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-01-30T10:56:56.You’re welcome, Marian! I just completed work on version 1.2; check it out as it adds a slew of nice features.
Marian Sparks at 2009-01-30T18:42:48.Hi Richard,
I upgraded to version 1.2, but had to deactivate is (using WP 2.7 and Thesis Theme). (last version worked fine). The error I get when I click on the “Tweet this post” link is “Error: database query failed [Title]:” where [Title] is the blog post title. I deleted and reinstalled the plug in twice but couldn’t figure it out.
P.S. I like the changes you made…
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-01-30T20:56:53.Does the URL show up, or just that? I installed a test version of Thesis, and the plugin works, but it could be different on your server. There’s something with the WordPress function get_the_title() or the string replacement for [TITLE] that’s failing on your WordPress installation. I don’t know what it is.
Marian Sparks at 2009-01-30T22:09:39.Richard,
To answer your question, “just that”. No URL appears. I’ve discovered that it’s not your plugin.
Thesis is installed on a Test Blog and both the v.1.1.1 AND 1.2 work fine. Somehow I managed to mess up wordpress when I was installing the plugin upgrade on my ‘live’ site. Now I can’t go back to using the v1.1.1, which was fine until the “gremlins” attacked this AM. So it’s not your plugin or Thesis. It’s wordpress…
I’m stuck for now until I have the time and energy to sort through everything. Thanks again!
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-01-30T23:08:22.You’re welcome, sorry about the issues with WordPress. You can export your posts and re-install I suppose.
Rob at 2009-02-03T23:06:02.Hey, Marian. It works on our 2.7 install; i just upgraded the plugin. Maybe it’s a conflict with a different one?
Marian Sparks at 2009-02-04T00:45:26.Hey Rob! I just spent 2-days “messing” around with my wordpress install to resolve my “DB query error”. Trust me. I’m not exaggerating about the 2 days. But yes, the plugin works (on my 2.7 test site).
So glad you’re using it. I’m loving what Richard has done with the upgrades. Hmmm each day it gets better and better.
Thanks for your support!
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-08T04:20:54.Glad you got it working, Marian, and thanks! Just released v1.3 which adds some more cool stuff.
luca at 2009-01-30T12:00:19.
Richard,
the plugin is great but it doesn’t work on my blog. It screws up all my home page… WP 2.7. Unfortunately I have to deactivate it
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-01-30T20:57:48.What’s it do? Does it say something about file_get_contents not working?
luca at 2009-01-30T21:33:49.exactly, and it shows these messages on the posts…
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-01-30T21:48:56.You have to have the PHP function file_get_contents() enabled on your server… some low-grade web hosts disable it. Try contacting your host about it.
Kevin at 2009-02-06T05:48:04.
I’m on mediatemple and I get the same problem. I doubt they’d be considered low grade
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-08T04:23:38.Perhaps more hosts disable file_get_contents() than I thought? Check out this comment for how to fix your php.ini file… if your host allows. If not, you can always set the URL service to “local,” for URLs like http://richardxthripp.thripp.com/?p=7.
Kevin Lim at 2009-02-18T07:50:03.Well well… it works now! Version 1.3.6 has much better handling of URLs: if allow_url_fopen was probably it!
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-18T16:01:35.Tweet This now uses curl if allow_url_fopen is disabled. A lot of web hosts disable allow_url_fopen for security but leave curl enabled, so this should fix problems for a lot of users.

Excellent plugin! Just added it to our new blog!
I only made the following small change in the function get_tweet_this_small() in order to make sure the icon wasn’t underlined:
function get_tweet_this_small() {
$icon = get_option(’siteurl’) . ‘/wp-content/plugins/tweet-this/tweet-this-small.png’;
$link = ‘<a href=”‘ . get_tweet_this_url() . ‘” title=”Post to Twitter (’ .
get_tweet_this_short_url() . ‘)”>Tweet This!</a>’;
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-01-30T10:58:14.Thank you! I added that change in the new version 1.2; only the “Tweet This Post” text is underlined now; not the image.

marhgil at 2009-01-23T17:01:39.
nice idea. just a suggestion, can you add an option not to use the URL services, instead, use the shorter version of the blog’s link as described here in my post? i hate relying on 3rd party services when I can shorten my URL even without them.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-01-30T10:57:35.Thanks. I added that in the new version 1.2: it’s at the bottom of the URL services list. “Local,” I call it.

Hi Richard!
Great idea for a wp-plugin. I want to use it at my blog too. I downloaded it, installed it but to my surprise nothing happened. I am using the tarski-theme. Any idea what I need to do so that I can use the plugin? I really really want to use it! Thanks in advance for any help and idea!
Liisa at 2009-01-30T00:16:59.just a short note, I was able to solve the problem myself. thanks for the great plugin.
Marko at 2009-01-20T19:54:31.
I just installed this plugin on my blog and it’s great and so easy to use. Thanks.
tim at 2009-01-11T09:40:45.
A nice Plugin. Thank you. It’s very helpful.
Is it possible to change the code, that the URL will be displayed after the Title?
Kim Vallee at 2009-01-11T16:18:07.
I support you. I was amazed that someone thought of putting an URL first. You need to know what it is before getting the desire to click on an URL.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-01-30T10:34:49.This is possible in the new version 1.2! There’s a box that says “[URL] [TITLE]“, and you can move them around like so: “[TITLE] [URL]“. Or you can do something like “Reading @richardxthripp [TITLE] [URL]“. I saw John Chow was doing that on his blog.

P.S. Great photos. Love this one: Sunrays 2
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-01-11T00:00:06.Thanks, Joni! I added you to the list of blogs. Sunrays 2 is a favorite of mine too!
nobugs at 2009-01-08T23:07:04.
Thanks for the plugin! Nice work.
Any chance of coding in the excellent suggestion made by tixrus, here?
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/200859Thanks again…
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-01-11T00:00:46.I’ll put that on my list; I haven’t added anything to this plugin in months unfortunately.
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-01-30T10:31:59.I added that in the new version 1.2. You can specify whatever text you want for the tweet.
Ben at 2009-01-08T15:15:25.
Thank you very much, saved me a lots of time integrating such a functionality. Immediately integrated!
The get_ functionality is a very nice touch.
Scrappy Upstart at 2008-12-29T19:02:13.
Thanks for this - TwitThis by Chuug just stopped working, so did their support email.
Your plug-in came in handy. The ability to make it jsut a small link at bottom and not giant bird is great.
http://www.scrappyupstarts.com
Thanks!
Michael Schultz at 2008-12-29T07:05:09.Tweet This looks like it doesn’t work with PHP5. Here is a screenshot of what happens when I enable PHP5 on my server. Any ideas?
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-01-10T23:56:20.I’m running PHP 5 and it works fine; it looks like the PHP function file_get_contents is disabled on your server. Tweet This requires that function to fetch the shortened URL from an external server (Th8.us being the default).
caranan at 2008-12-10T21:27:41.
When I use it works great, but adds some space above the text. Is there code I can add to eliminate that space? I tried but it doesn’t seem to have any effect.
Thanks for the plugin, it’s really handy.
caranan at 2008-12-10T21:35:36.Oops, the code i inserted disappeared of course, now it makes little sense. I meant to say that i’ve inserted tweet_this_small(); and a margin-top:0 in a span tag to try and eliminatet the space. Sorry to be crytic…
Simon Osborne at 2008-11-27T03:20:59.
I love Tweet This! I use it on my blog at http://www.flibblesan.co.uk
Only got one small ‘issue’ with the “Tweet This” text being a little higher than the twitter logo. I suspect this is due to some setting in my theme.
Richard X. Thripp at 2008-12-02T13:37:43.Thanks! I checked, and this is the issue:
<p><a class="tt-small" href="http://twitter.com/home/?status=http://snurl.com/6x4nf+2%2C700-year-old+Chinese+weed+found" title="Post to Twitter (http://snurl.com/6x4nf)"><img class="nothumb" src="http://flibblesan.co.uk/wp-content/plugins/tweet-this/tweet-this-small.png" alt="[Post to Twitter]” /> Tweet This</a></p> </div>That last
</div>tag needs to come before the Tweet This image / link… but it doesn’t because the content of each of your posts is in a<div>(your theme is set up that way) and Tweet This inserts itself right into the end of the content of each post with the WordPress function add_filter : add_filter(’the_content’, ‘insert_tweet_this’).I think a few themes do this, because I’ve seen it before. I’ll need to think of a work-around… you can try going to Settings > Tweet This, unchecking “Automatically insert Tweet This links” and clicking Save Options. Then insert the <?php tweet_this_small(); ?> into your theme source code, in the loop, above the comments text (or wherever you want it), but below the closing
<div>tag.
mark2100 at 2008-11-13T21:37:54.
Using this great plugin on my blog, many thanks!
Richard X. Thripp at 2008-11-17T20:05:31.You’re welcome! Looking good, although the Twitter favicon doesn’t go well against your dark background… I might have to do something about that.
Alex at 2008-11-07T19:52:12.
Great plugin and I have just implemented it on my blog!
I have to say that out of several other solutions I have tried - this plugin is the most elegant. Thanks for your great work.
Alex
Richard X. Thripp at 2008-11-09T01:54:56.Thanks! Your blog’s on the list now. I use it too; it’s about the best thing I could think of. I need to work on a new version sometime; there’s still a few things I’d like to add to it.
CSKnet at 2008-11-07T17:01:24.
Great plug-in! I am using it on my blog at http://www.csknet.net/blog/
Jeff at 2008-10-30T05:40:14.
This is what a good plug-in was meant to be. It’s simple, easy to install and most importantly even the slowest of readers can understand how to use it and tweet.
Richard X. Thripp at 2008-10-30T12:34:39.Thanks so much, Mr. Jeff! It must have helped that I designed it for myself first. I have a small, gray Tweet This link at the end of each of my blog posts here (tweet_this_text_link() function), and I use that myself to post my blog entries to Twitter.
I’ve also been doing some cool work on Th8.us, the default URL shortening service with Tweet This which I created. When you make a new post, you get some exposure on the home page for a few minutes or hours (depending on how many URLs are being entered recently), and you can get a click counter for all the URLs by adding “p.” before, i.e. p.www.37258.th8.us (you can put “p.” before or after the “www.”, or get rid of “www.” entirely).
Thinkstorm at 2008-10-19T02:56:01.“Hello Richard, Nice little plugin
I modified the code a bit: 1/ In “function get_tweet_this_trim_title()” I added $search = array('"', ''', '&', '', '¢', '©', '«', '®', '»', '–', '—', '‘', '’', '“', '”'); $replace = array('"', "'", '&', '', 'c', '(c)', '', '-', '-', "'", "'", '"', '"'); $title = str_replace($search, $replace, $title); $search = array(chr(145), chr(146), chr(147), chr(148), chr(151), chr(171), chr(187)); $replace = array("'", "'", '"', '"', '-', '' ); $title = str_replace($search, $replace, $title);which will take care of special characters in the title (see here: http://www.playoutintelligence.com/2008/10/11/gary-vaynerchuks-baseball-hour-show-idea/). 2/ It would be nice if I could enter my own class attributes for the inserts (I now have to edit the plugin code), also if I could omit / change the text that is displayed with ‘tweet_this_small’.”
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-01-30T21:54:15.This is way late, but I added two of those things in version 1.2. HTML entities are now replaced with their respective special characters, and there’s a text box in the settings menu so you can make “Tweet This Post” say whatever you want. No custom class attributes yet, though.
Yen at 2008-10-13T00:44:48.
Thanks You! I’m using this now;-) And works like a charm!~
Weekly Leader at 2008-10-12T01:52:11.
None of the url’s show up in the Tweets. How do I fix this? Thanks.
Richard X. Thripp at 2008-10-12T19:52:13.Tweet This uses the PHP function, file_get_contents, to get the short URLs from external URL services. Some hosts disable that… I know Justfree.com does, for example. You can’t use Tweet This without it. Ask your host if they’re disabling that function.
Xelha at 2009-02-04T22:38:43.
FYI
allow_url_fopen should be ON in PHP configuration (php.ini). Probably, you don’t have access to edit this file and it could also be that your hosting company has restricted changing the allow_url_fopen value. In this case, you should refer to them and ask them to set the value of allow_url_fopen to ON
Richard X. Thripp at 2009-02-08T04:22:01.Thanks for the details, Xelha. As a last resort you can set the URL Service to Local in the settings.
Dave (dave and thomas) at 2008-09-29T21:02:37.
This is a great application. It has really opened up the Twitter site for my blog. I was able to install with no problems. Great plugin.
Richard X. Thripp at 2008-09-29T21:25:19.Thanks a lot, Dave! Glad you’ve found it useful. I like it and use it because it cuts down on all those steps (shortening the URL yourself and going to Twitter).
Sue at 2008-09-08T03:40:52.
Great plugin! Thank you for your work on this.
I am looking forward to being able to offer this functionality to site visitors but definitely need to offer a smaller bird - preferably 26-30px. Ideally I’d like to use a bird icon that more closely resembles their home page bird, also, or create something myself that tells people its a twitter link.I’m looking forward to 1.1!
many thanks,
Sue
Richard X. Thripp at 2008-09-09T11:26:43.Thanks, Sue! Love your avatar (Gravatar), by the way.
I’m putting off v1.1 till the start of next week, since I was sick with a cold and couldn’t get anything done recently. I made progress with the customization options today, but Tweet This really needs to cache the shortened URLs locally (1.0 doesn’t and is too slow). That’s a harder problem, but I’m figuring it out; I’ll keep you posted on my progress.
Sue at 2008-09-11T00:50:35.Thank you so very much, Richard. Looking forward to your update!
Sue
Richard X. Thripp at 2008-09-11T01:25:21.Hello again! I got done earlier; I’ve updated this page. Here’s a direct link to version 1.1. There’s a new settings page where you can switch to a small text link with the Twitter favicon (16×16) placed at the bottom of posts, show the icon only on single post / page views, or disable auto-insertion entirely. Then, you can use tweet_this_text_link() or tweet_this_small() in your theme (within the loop) to show Tweet This wherever you want.
Let me know how it works for you, or whatever should be added or changed in the next version. Thanks.
Sue at 2008-09-12T04:10:04.That’s what I call a fast recovery! Thanks so very much, Rich (may I call you “Rich”?) for your work on this. I have so much appreciation for people with coding skills! I will install it tomorrow and get back to you!!
Sue
Richard X. Thripp at 2008-09-12T08:43:14.You’re welcome, Sue! Sure, you can call me that.
I haven’t done much coding, but I’m getting better. I actually thought about how to implement the short URL cache for a couple days before coding it, and it works pretty well because of that.
fryevhen at 2008-09-04T05:35:41.
The many thanks for the work! I the worshipper Of wordPress, and included your site in survey on my blog. Regards from the Ukraine!
Vince at 2008-09-04T04:10:44.
Is there no way to call the Tweet This function somewhere else and disable the automatic insert into the post?For example, I’d like to call the function with some of the post metadata on my site right under the title. The big square bird is just too intrusive, but I love the plugin and want to use it in another way.
Richard X. Thripp at 2008-09-04T08:17:15.There is no way to customize this at all, except for changing the code in the plugin. I’ll have to add that in version 1.1!
Richard X. Thripp at 2008-09-11T01:21:50.I just posted version 1.1 here; try it out as it lets you disable auto-insert under Settings > Tweet This. Then you can use tweet_this_text_link(); or tweet_this_small(); in your template. The latter puts a 16×16 Twitter icon next to the text, “Tweet This”, both of which are a link. Try it out!
Vince Leibowitz at 2008-09-11T02:51:36.I’ve uploaded the new version, but still no dice. I’ve tried putting the “tweet_this_small()” snippet of php in, but it doesn’t work. It is just an empty space. I’m using it at the top of each of my posts, under the headline but before the post content. In my template, it’s a class called “postinfo,” that includes the author, php for share this, sphereit, and the option to edit if an admin is logged in. Is there any reason that it wouldn’t work in this area?
Richard X. Thripp at 2008-09-11T10:14:32.I figured it out; I changed “echo” to “return” so the link would work properly with the WordPress content filter, but that means you have to use “echo tweet_this_small()” in your theme, not “tweet_this_small()”.
Try that.
Also, I’ve released v1.1.1, where tweet_this_small() works as expected (without echo).
caranan at 2009-04-07T11:27:48.Hi, I found almost all the help I needed in this thread, thank you!
I inserted the , and the graphic appears correctly, but increases the margin above and below, even though style=”margin-top: 0px” is specified on the class. Is there a solution?
Thank you once again for this useful plugin.
