The “future” looks great. I can only imagine how much work that’ll truly be.

Alexa ranking is not important i think. Lots of my top visitor sites has low degrees in Alexa. So, i don’t care about it anymore.

I have added a bit to version 0.999 so that it doesn’t need the host to use or support curl, if it isn’t enabled , it will try and use a remote script I made on a lone domain just for the use of commentluv to find a feed address.

I did a couple test comments on your blog and it seemed to pick up the last post. If you were testing it with your own domain in the comment, it might not have been able to access itself. You could wait and see if someone else can get their last blog post shown or log out and use a site that you know has a feed to see if it can pick it up.

it’ll only pick up for comments made after CL has been installed. Hopefully it’ll continue to work with new comments…

Andy, I have tried CommentLuv on http://ukmac.net but I don’t seem to be able to get it to work. My site is hosted on Plus.net. Is there anything obvious I can do to check for compatibility with your plugin ? How do I know if Plus.net supports Curl ? Is there nothing that can be done to make it work if they dont ?

Cheers

This one needs at least version 2.1 as that is when the fetch_rss routine came to be in use, it wont work with a lesser version. I also noticed that going to http://thedomesticdiva.org/blog/feed causes an error for me. It’s probably why it wouldn’t pick up your last blog post here.

instant upgrade plugin is good for doing an update. It takes all the pain out of it!

I couldn’t get this to work on my blog, I have wordpress 2.0, I’m sure it is a compatibility issue. The problem is that whenever someone tries to submit a comment, it doesn’t go through and pulls up a blank white page.

Vladimir: thanks! I did look at your theme plugin, it was really useful!seeing a new design in action without the whole world seeing the little bits I needed to change was a really useful thing. I was supposed to write a how-to on here for it but I got too busy!.

I’ll get around to it eventually..

Hey Andy

I believe the AJAX idea for commentluv is great. I will try the new version and report if it works (remember the problems I had before?)

Btw your article inspired me to write wordpress plugins and I did 3 already. You said you’ll give it a look did you?
