[Plugin: Shorten2Ping] Great plugin!

Where is it meant to save the settings (bit.ly account API key, ping.fm key, etc)?

I am unable to get any changes I make to stick. Should it be saving in the wp_options table, or should it be writing it into the shorten2ping.php file directly, or …?

Thanks,

PS – Once I get this working I am going to add hashtags for the ping (they don’t mean much in Facebook, MySpace, etc, but can be important in Twitter)

Adding these is simple –

$post_url = get_permalink($post_id);
    $post_title = get_the_title($post_id);
    // --- add some tag bits here ------ //
    $tags = wp_get_post_tags($post_id);
    $my_tag_list = '';
    if ($tags) {
    foreach ($tags as $j=>$tag) {
        $my_tag_list .= '#'.$tag->slug.' ';
    }
    // --- back to regular processing ----- //
    // --- cut for brevity ----- //
            //get message from settings and process title and link
            $message = $s2p_options['message'];
            $message = str_replace('[title]', $post_title, $message);
            $message = str_replace('[link]', $short_url, $message);
            // --- add the tags ----- //
            // --- ToDo: determine length and truncate Title(?) or Tags in order to fit in Twitter post //
            $message = str_replace('[tags]', $my_tag_list, $message);

what would be even better is if we could use our own shortened urls. like what the plugin ‘Twitter Friendly Links’ does…
