wp-prowl 0.8.5b1. fixes akismet, wpmu

there’s a new version of wp-prowl that just hit wordpress svn. it’s still in beta, but if you’re feeling adventurous, you’ll get the following fixes:

  • fixes issues with spam comment notifications slipping by, even when akismet catches them
  • fixes issues with WordPress MU not being able to save options (i think)

if you test it, you’ve gotta let me know. thems the rules!

get the zip out of WordPress SVN. You’ll have to do a manual install since this is the beta.


Broken for me. Posting a comment just takes me to a blank page. Comment is not posted.

Running WP 2.9.1 WP super-cache wp-minify wp ajax edit comments subscribe to comments comment license

Any tips on how to find where it is breaking? I’m running on a shared host

The simplest way to figure this out is to enable debug mode in wordpress. Then enable the plugin, try to leave a comment, and then let me know the error messages that are given. To enable debug, place the following line in your wp-config.php file:

define(‘WP_DEBUG’, true);

Let me know if you have any difficulties, or any questions.

(also emailed, but posted here for everyone’s reference)

Doh! Totally my bad.

I am also running WPtouch which also has Prowl notifications. I left a couple of checkboxes ticked in the WPtouch options & didn’t enter my API key in WPtouch. That broke it.

After unticking the boxes in WPtouch everything works perfectly, even with wp-wuper-cache, wp-minify, wp-touch, mobile edition, ajax-edit-comments … all sorts of other crap. I also works fine for comments left from an iPhone running the WPtouch theme without any boxes ticked in the WPtouch push settings.

Great plugin – works perfectly.
