Opml Editor, WordPress Tool

I uninstalled the WordPress Tool by deleting wordPress.root from the Opml, Guest Databases, apps, Tools local directory.

Restarted the Opml Editor. Selected Misc, Tool Catalog to install the WordPress Tool again. This time the WordPress preferences page appeared after the tool was installed. A link to the WordPress Tool Prefs is now also included on the Opml Editor Prefs page. Voila.

OPML Editor, Fresh Install

Hammering the latest OPML Editor code updates:

This time I started with the previous Birdie version of the Opml Editor zip. Synchronize files finally worked! And I was able to start posting at the opml blog site again.

Updated to the latest code via File, Update Opml.root. Restarted the editor. I still get intermittent page faults on exiting the editor, but did with previous versions as well. [Win98 testbed]

On restart the Editor image updated to the “Accordion Guy”. Good.

Installed and testing new and updated tools. Select Misc tab, Tool Catalog to bring up a list of tools you can install.

WordPress Tool – working fine. The only issue I have encountered with this latest fresh install, is that the WordPress Preferences page does not auto-load after installing the tool. Instead we see Opml Editor prefs page. The last time I installed, I was able to get to the WordPress Tool prefs page by installing the tool, then restarting Opml Editor and selecting Tools, WordPress, Preferences. Strangely, that does not work now. I manually updated the prefs table info.

HowTo Tool – tested fine in mid-November. Could not retrieve my previous test howTo’s since this latest fresh install on different PC. Found this was due to Firewall restrictions. Is there a way to delete or rename documents?

Podcatcher Tool – Installed. The default subscriptions were too many/too large to wait for downloads. Did not seem to remember my unsubs of defaults? Deleted this tool from Opml, Guest Databases, apps, Tools directory ~ more testing later.

Photofan Tool – Installed. The default subscriptions were too many/too large to wait for downloads. Deleted this tool from Opml, Guest Databases, apps, Tools directory ~ more testing later.

Also checking other functional code updates and testing via Menu or bundled test code.

Community Menu – after code updates it moved to the Tools menu. So far, so good.

NewsRiver Menu – after code updates it moved to the Tools menu. So far, so good.

Post to Identica – [No menu tool yet, but test code works]

Post to FriendFeed – [No menu tool yet, but test code works]. We knew it would!

Notes – 12/07/2008

Testing with latest OPML Editor updates.

Today, I am able to sync with my previous OPML Editor weblog posts. The XML error I was experiencing is now gone. May the new ’source’ be with you.

Cannot bring up the WordPress preferences. It auto-defaults to the General Preferences page. I updated the WordPress prefs manually for now.

Fairweather Fan?

I have jumped back into FriendFeed for the third time. I am feeling test_driven once again. I see shiny, new, wet-paint, and then I’m in. Not very social, but definitely a geek.

I did three passes in and out of Twitter. One short visit to Pownce, and one short visit to Tumblr. Did not succumb to Plurk, Jaiku, Kwippy, or Rantr.

FriendFeed and Twitter annoyance: Can login to FriendFeed with jScript disabled, but jScript is required for comment, more, etc. Twitter, the same. Can login w/out jScript, but is required for some additional functionality.

I’ve been keeping a log [logging, weblogging, blogging] on the web since 1999 via raw html, php blog, nanoBlogger, Blosxom (pronounced “blossom”), MovableType, OPML WebLog, and WordPress. Spent the longest time with WordPress (Since V1.2 ).

Am currently riding the open source wave in test_driven mode on Identi.ca, Habari, FriendFeed, OPML Editor, IdentiSpy, TwitVim, WordPress.org, WordPress.com, and Pivot.

Testing again with the latest releases of Habari, Pivot, WordPress (all localhost), and the OPML Editor.

Have a soft-spot for Identi.ca, Habari, and the OPML Editor. Yes, I am a geek.

Like L.M. Orchard, of [0xDecafbad] I am finding myself to be a “Serial Enthusiast”.
