Technobabble about LivePress

I use Live+Press to mix my site here with a little Livejournal. The original plugin was made by the hugely talented Unteins, but hasn’t really been updated much since. He includes a link to a fix that has been working for me since the WordPress 1.5-2.0 era. Now that WordPress 2.1 is coming, with many changes, of course, Live+Press doesn’t like it. On my test site, I have Live+Press working again, but only under one quirky condition. In order to have the options appear on a new post, I have to type the title of the post and press “Enter”. The new posting page, rather than being called post.php, is post-new.php and LP is not made to work with that file. I edited the core plugin files, but I didn’t know what the hell I was doing, so the options appeared, but didn’t work. One extra “Enter” doesn’t bother me, but I hope someone will fix this plugin soon. I know it’s going to be an easy fix, but I’ve already proven I won’t be the one to do it.

In summation, for anyone with an already functional install of Live+Press, for WordPress 2.1, type the title of your new post, press “Enter” (which brings up the old post.php?action=edit&post=xx) and continue as always. :wink2:
