schmie_twitter

Schmie_twitter is really awesome! When you update or publish a new post on your WordPress Blog,
it will notifiy your followers on Ping.fm Twitter and / or Identica!!!.
You can define default messages that are pushed to your Message services or create custom Messages for
every Post.
If you’re hoster blocks Twitter (like my Hoster), you can use Twittermail.
You only need an emailadress on your webspace.
The plugin supports several Url-shortening-services (is.gd,bit.ly,i2h and tinyurl). If your favortive service is missing, write me an email ([email protected]). It is possible now to use Ping.fm. All you need is of course an account there,
The User Api Key and an Api Key.

Download the zip file in your plugindirectory (wp-content/plugins/) and extract it. Activate it and configure it in the adminpanel (Settings->schmie_twitter Settings)

The Twittermail function does not work

You need an Email service on your Webspace.
It won’t work with Mailservices like Googlemail oder Gmx.

It takes some time until the message arrives on twitter

Thats a problem with your Webhoster. For example on byethost, it takes up to 30 minutes until your twitter status is updated.

Whats the difference between Ping.fm API Key and Ping.fm User Api Key?

I am still waiting for the plugins approval trough Ping.fm. If they approve it, you only need your
User Api Key. Until then, you must request a developer Key.
You can get your User Api key here: http://ping.fm/key/.
The additional API Key is required to enable the communication between Schmie-twitter and Ping.fm.
You can make the request here: http://ping.fm/developers/.
I made some Screenshots of this procedure.
Have a look at my page: http://schmiddi.co.cc/wordpress_plugins/.
