=== JournalPress === Contributors: alisdee Tags: livejournal, crossposting, community, post, posts, social, update Requires at least: 2.0.2 Tested up to: 2.6.3 Stable tag: 0.1.1 A cross-poster supporting multiple LiveJournal Server journals. == Description == **JournalPress** is a WordPress plugin that enabled cross-posting to sites running LiveJournal Server (i.e. LiveJournal, InsaneJournal, JournalFen, et al.). It is based on the existing LJXP plugin, however it has a raft of new features including: * Support for multiple different mirror journals; * Per-post userpic selection; * Support for cut text; and * More! It is currently in its "stable beta" stage, and as such some features may not be available. The latest updates about the plug-ins development can be found [in the project blog](http://beta.void-star.net/category/geeking/wordpress/journalpress/ "JournalPress @ beta.void-star.net"). == Installation == Completely standard WP plug-in install. Yay! 1. Upload the `journalpress` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory; and 1. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress. That's it! == Frequently Asked Questions == = Why doesn't x work? = Because it's a very, very early release of the plug-in, of course! All bugs and suggestions should be filed at [the project site](http://beta.void-star.net/projects/journalpress/ "JournalPress Home"). = Where's my promised userpic selection, huh? = Yeah, about that. LJ's XML client apparently freaks out when trying to parse the return value from LiveJournal containing the list of userpics... *sometimes*. This is pretty much my top bugfix priority, because man do I love userpics. ... now if only I knew how to solve it. = What about Currents? = They'll likely be supported via hooks into separate plug-ins, even if I have to write them myself... = My community posts don't post! = Communities in LJ-land are a bit finicky. Specifically they won't post if your security is private, and they won't post under certain backdated conditions. At the current time, JournalPress is pretty silent about throwing errors returned via the XML interface. It probably shouldn't be; it's in the works. = Do you support MU? = No. It's on the list. = Why don't you support per-post security settings? = The plan is to eventually offer more granular support for this with the help of a separate plug-in. You know, one that applies the same sort of settings in *WordPress*. Yeah, it's the Holy Grail I know, so don't hold your breath... But, as it stands, considering WP's support for post security is fairly minimal, the current solution is good enough. == Credits == **JournalPress** is based off the original [LJXP](http://ebroder.net/livejournal-crossposter/) client by Evan Broder, with the [LJ Crossposter Plus](http://www.alltrees.org/Wordpress/#LCP) modifications made by Ravenwood and Irwin. No disrespect is intended towards any of these authors; without their great work, this plugin wouldn't have been possible (or at least would've taken a hell of a lot longer to write).
