<p>Great for having a personal archive of content sent through Ping.fm, displaying<br />
status updates in your sidebar, or starting a mobile photo blog. While there’s<br />
plenty of room for customizing the plugin, sane defaults ensure that 90% of<br />
people can get up and running quickly. Keep reading for a full list of features<br />
below…</p>
<h4>Minimum System Requirements</h4>
<p>This plugin has required PHP 5 for quite a while, but the increased<br />
requirements below are in line with the new standard coming in WordPress 3.2.<br />
Other version of PHP/MySQL might work just fine, but I personally use even<br />
later versions of both for development and testing. The minimums listed below<br />
are just that—minimums. My advice is to use the latest stable versions you<br />
can get your hands on.</p>
<ul>
<li>WordPress 3.0</li>
<li>PHP 5.2.0</li>
<li>MySQL 5.0.15</li>
</ul>
<h4>A Quick Note About Donations</h4>
<p>Starting with version 2.0.0 of this plugin, I added a PayPal donation link to<br />
the information box in the upper-right corner of the page. Let me be clear: I’m<br />
<strong>not</strong> soliciting donations, there is no charge for this plugin, and you are<br />
<strong>not</strong> obligated to give me any money for any reason. However, people have<br />
asked me if they could donate, and I wanted to facilitate that if you feel so<br />
inclined.</p>
<p>I’ve spent countless hours developing and supporting this plugin, but it’s<br />
mostly a labor of love. I first created the plugin to meet my own needs, and<br />
it’s kind of taken off from there. If you feel that the plugin has been useful<br />
to you in some way, I’d be honored to take your money and spend it on gadgets<br />
and firearm accessories.</p>
<h4>Ye Olde Features Liste</h4>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Works with Ping.fm’s Custom URL feature to collect blog entries, micro-blog<br />
entries, and status updates and post them to your blog.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Photos posted through Ping.fm can be downloaded to your own blog and<br />
displayed as part of a normal post. It’s a super-easy way to set up an<br />
awesome self-hosted mobile photo blog.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Status updates and micro-blogs can be administered through a native<br />
WordPress management screen while blogs are, well… normal blog entries!<br />
Every feature of this plugin is tightly integrated with WordPress to<br />
provide a native look and feel.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>A beautiful settings page with predefined smart defaults and contextual<br />
help when you need it.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Status updates are posted to the sidebar and displayed with a widget. A<br />
standard template tag is also provided for those of you who are<br />
anti-widget.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The sidebar widget is customizable with the number of status updates to<br />
show and an optional string to prepend all updates with (e.g. you might use<br />
your first name if all your status updates begin with a verb like mine do:<br />
Matt is…). Sensible CSS and examples are provided for you to customize<br />
the look and feel of your widget.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Provides an RSS feed and permalinks for your pings so that you can share<br />
them with the rest of the world.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Blog entries and micro-blog entries can have certain metadata applied to<br />
them automatically. You can set the author, category, tags, and post status<br />
(published or draft) for all incoming pings.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>All the cool features of Ping.fm: post to your self-hosted WordPress blog<br />
using SMS, IM, email, desktop gadgets, mobile apps, etc.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h3>Template Tag Usage</h3>
<p>void <strong>wp_pingfm_status</strong> ( [ int <code>$limit</code> [, string <code>$prefix</code> [, bool <code>$permalink</code> ]]] )</p>
<p>Displays status updates in an unordered list (<code><ul></code>). All parameters are<br />
optional.</p>
<h4>Parameters</h4>
<p><em>limit</em></p>
<blockquote>
<p>The number of status updates to show. Default value is 10. Depending on your<br />
  needs and the location on the page, a value between 5 and 15 is usually pretty<br />
  reasonable.</p>
</blockquote>
<p><em>prefix</em></p>
<blockquote>
<p>Some text to display before every status update. Default value is nothing.<br />
  This can be useful if all of your status updates begin with a verb. For<br />
  example, you might post “going to the store” from Ping.fm. If your prefix is<br />
  “Matt is”, the final output will be “Matt is going to the store”. Neat, huh?</p>
</blockquote>
<p><em>permalink</em></p>
<blockquote>
<p>Whether to show timestamps as permalinks, a la Twitter. The archive page is<br />
  editable via the <code>tmpl-single.php</code> template file.</p>
</blockquote>
<h4>Example</h4>
<p>If you’re using the Twenty Ten theme that ships with WordPress 3.0, you might<br />
put the following into your <code>sidebar.php</code> file:</p>
<pre><code><li id="pingfm" class="widget-container">
    <h3 class="widget-title">Status Updates</h3>
    <?php wp_pingfm_status(); ?>
</li>
</code></pre>
<p>mixed <strong>wp_pingfm_latest</strong> ( void )</p>
<p>Retrieves the single most recent ping (status update) from the database.</p>
<h4>Return Values</h4>
<p>A <code>stdClass</code> object representing the latest ping, if it exists. Otherwise,<br />
false. The object will contain the properties listed below. For more<br />
information, dig through the source of the WordPress <code>get_posts()</code> function.</p>
