I’m planning to install this… so I sell my soul (and e-mail) to be notified of changes :-)
Nice idea, now I can finally begin to ditch Twitter.
Hello,
I installed the plugin, generated the one-time key and added the application to my Facebook profile, but I cannot see the Wordpress block anywhere in it. Do I have to wait a bit to appear? Did I miss something?
Thanks for your help.
I don’t think you’re missing anything. If you click on “Applications” in your profile, Wordbook should show up. I think it might be “hidden” because Facebook hasn’t accepted the app yet (Wordbook isn’t yet in the Facebook app directory). I am guessing it will show up when/if Wordbook gets accepted.
Great plugin!!
When I try to clear errors on the admin page I get errors.

Any thoughts?
Version 0.5.3 is available. Changes from 0.5.2: activation of the Wordbook plugin will add a link to your blog in your Facebook profile’s “Wordbook” box. After that, the “Wordbook” box will be filled with the title of your most recent blog post.
Version 0.5.2 is available. Changes from 0.5.1: from the WordPress admin panel, URLs to facebook.com will be launched in a new browser window.
Interesting idea. Keep me posted
very neat idea, i like it a lot. thank you =)
Hi,
Is it just me or is the download link dead? :S
Hmm… Download not working.
Great idea for a plugin. Very useful!
Just curious though: I keep getting error code 343, “Feed story title is too long” under Plugins–>FacePress… what is the Facebook title limit?
Yeah, somethings wrong? Got the title down to 4 chars - same error. I’m using facePress 0.4.1 so perhaps you have already fixed this in the new wordbook? (the download link appears to be broken though ;-)
Download link is busted.
Hi,
The download link is broken….can anyone send me the plugin on gautham (@) maediratta dot com
Thanks!
Would try this app if I could actually download it.
Rob,
Version 0.5.1 is definitely not showing the newest posts in the mini-feed or anywhere else. I’ll upgrade anytime today, but it’s still strange. I’m switching back to importing notes meanwhile.
Version 0.5.5 is out, and the download link is fixed.
Long post titles are now truncated with “…” if necessary.
The blog name is now not included in the Mini-Feed title (to favor the post title, since that will have a link to your blog anyway).
Each post will now update the “Wordbook” block in your profile with your blog name and latest post title.
Thank you so much Rob! I’ve been looking for something that does exactly this… you rock.
yay the link works now.
I’ve been looking for something like this, i even tried making something like it myself, but failed very badly ^^.
Thanks :D.
Hello Rob,
I’ve upgraded the version to 0.5.5, and tried to re-add the application in Facebook and re-install the plug-in, but I still don’t see the posts published. I usually timestamp my entries, rather than publishing anything at once.
Could you assist me in this? Thanks!
If you mean you are post-dating your entries (giving everything a date in the future), then I will have to investigate it. It wouldn’t surprise me if that wasn’t working, because I haven’t planned for that use case.
This plugin seems really wicked. I’ve yet to test it but if it works out for me, this could be one of my most useful plugins. When I was installing this, I came up with a question: does this plugin support multiple WordPress users and corresponding Facebook accounts?
I must be missing this thing on how to generate the “one-time code” by logging into facebook. Can anyone assist?
A single WordPress blog can currently only be associated with a single Facebook account; a multi-author blog cannot be associated with multiple Facebook accounts.
This Wordbook limitation is something that could be fixed in a future release.
A useful plugin. Will try it out
Version 0.6.1 is available for download. New features:
Enjoy.
I’ve just installed the new version. I like it a lot, already! Nice one.
nice job
Hey, great plugin. The one-time use code thing was due to my being an idiot. My adblocking software was blocking the link to generate the code.
Installed and tested the plugin, it works great! Good job!
Hi, thanks for putting the work into this. Just a couple of thoughts:
Is there any way to import older posts, or will it only ever show latest posts? Flog Book has an option to manually add posts, but since this application has stopped working for me for the last 48 hours, I’ve turned to Wordbook.
Secondly, the link that Wordbook provides as the link to my blog is actually the Wordpress installation URL, not the blog address URL. My Wordpress is installed in its own directory, and my blog is actually the frontpage of the site.
It will show the most recent posts using the same option that controls the number of posts on your blog’s first page. The idea is that the Facebook page displays a mini-version of your blog front page.
If you can describe exactly what it is you are trying to do, I can think about it. But it sounds like you are looking for some kind of tool to manage text in your Facebook page; Wordbook is probably not that tool. I have to believe that there must be some app out there that can do a better job of letting you manually create some box on your Facebook page.
I think you actually found a bug; thanks! Try downloading 0.6.2 and see if that works better for you.

Hello Rob
I’m wondering if it’s possible to alter the plugin so that for multi-authored blogs, in the mini-feed of FB, it doesn’t write the username of FB ‘blogged’ the article (as another blog author could have written it).
It would work if it showed the blog title rather than the FB user?
thanks again for this very nice plugin
thank you. it works perfectly.
I get the following error when I submit the one-time code:
WARNING IsterXmlExpatNonValid->parse(): expat: Invalid document end [0/1/1]
I get sql errors (webhost is running sql 4.0) - specifically:
WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'CURRENT_TIMESTAMP , `postid` BIGINT(20) NOT NULL , `error]
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS wordbook_errorlogs ( `timestamp` TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP , `postid` BIGINT(20) NOT NULL , `error_code` INT NOT NULL , `error_msg` VARCHAR(80) NOT NULL )
WordPress database error: [Table 'dbXXXXXX.wordbook_errorlogs' doesn't exist]
DELETE FROM wordbook_errorlogs WHERE timestamp
Suggestions?
I forgot to mention in my previous comment: my database does not use the default wp_ prefix. Would that make a difference?
What version of PHP do you have installed on your web server? I have written this for PHP-4 (php-4.4.2); PHP-5 has not been tested at all (it will just run the PHP-4 code, so it should theoretically be backwards-compatible).
Otherwise, make sure you copy-and-paste in the one-time code exactly as presented by Facebook - no extra leading or trailing whitespace, all-caps, etc.
I will work on the MySQL-4.0 forwards-compatibility problem; you’ll have to wait for a fix.
The non-default, non-`wp_` database table prefix should not be a problem.
I’ve addressed the above MySQL-4.x and `wp_` prefix questions in more detail in the Other Notes and FAQ.
This is not possible (Facebook limitation). See the Other Notes.
Looks sweet. Keep me updated.
What version of PHP do you have installed on your web server?
Possibly running 4.3.X - but I need to confirm this.
… no extra leading or trailing whitespace, all-caps, etc …
Tried this already.
Will check with hosts re: PHP 4.3
Checking it out. Will post back soon with my experiences and observations. Thanks.

This isn’t working for me. I’m running WordPress 2.1.2 if that makes a difference.
Ahhh, it DOES make a difference. I just upgraded, after procrastinating for a really long time, and it actually works now. Now that it’s working, I am very impressed! Just waiting for a multi-author, multi-facebook account version…
Thanks!
I have WordPress 2.2.2 and Wordbook 0.6.3, and when I activated the plug-in I get this error on top:
Warning: Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated; If you would like to pass it by reference, modify the declaration of get_post(). If you would like to enable call-time pass-by-reference, you can set allow_call_time_pass_reference to true in your INI file. in /home/.marcilyn/diehard/diehard.cc/blog/wp-content/plugins/wordbook/wordbook.php on line 189
My DreamHost server specification:
PHP 5.2.2
MySQL 5
Wordbook 0.7 is available.
If things are already working fine for you, there is no real reason to upgrade.
I updated Wordbook to 0.7, same error different line:
Warning: Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated; If you would like to pass it by reference, modify the declaration of get_post(). If you would like to enable call-time pass-by-reference, you can set allow_call_time_pass_reference to true in your INI file. in /home/.marcilyn/diehard/diehard.cc/blog/wp-content/plugins/wordbook/wordbook.php on line 180
I was researching and found that “allow_call_time_pass_reference” is set off because according to the PHP authors they said:
Hi! I like the plugin but it intefer with the wordpress fotoplugin which also connect to facebook. What happen is that you cant update or manage the fotos when having the wordbook activated. Would be superb if this could be fixed. Please drop me a mail (u see it at my site) if you decide to fix it!

pffft.. well done my friend!!! Pls keep on..
If you are looking for suggestions, an option in the facebook configuration to turn off publishing to newsfeeds might be a good idea, especially for blogs that post a lot in a day so as to avoid spamming one’s facebook network with news items..
to clarify, the minifeed updates would stay on the owners profile, but news items in the global feed might be able to be shut off, I realize now shutting one shuts them both.
Cheers
Great plug :)

Thanks!
First of all, great work! However, I had the same issue with the other 2
users… I have 2 mini-feed entries per blog entry that I have. Any
solution?
What I have done for myself… is to commented out one of the line:
add_action(’private_to_published’, ‘wordbook_force_publish_post’);
because I suspect it got fired when you go from a saved post to a
published post… and it did seem to work for me…
Anyways, it maybe done because of other cases, but that’s my current
workaround!
I can’t seem to get the activation to work, it keeps returning me to the same page every time I enter a code. I’ve updated both WP and the plugin to the latest version. Any ideas? Otherwise, I’m really looking forward to using this!
Thanks

Sorry to dampen the new version excitement, but there seems to be a problem with it. I’m using WordPress 2.2.1, and just tried deactivating my current Wordbook (0.5.5) and installing the new version.

This is a general WordPress error when a plugin cannot be installed (not specific to Wordbook). Try re-downloading the plugin and re-installing it on your server.

thanks for the quick response
i get the same error, i deleted and re-loaded. i guess there must be something quirky with my wp config.

Hi!
What versions of WP does this plugin work with?
I am currently using 2.1.3 and wonder if it works with that or only 2.2.x.
Jimisola
I should have been clearer in my previous question/comment since I read that the author only tests with WP 2.2. Does anyone else have experience with Wordbook under WP 2.1.x?

Hi Robert,

But I have came across the following problem.

I haven’t really looked at your code yet… do you use WordPress API’s or do you query the DB ? if the latter, I suppose you will need to rewrite quite a bit of it with upcoming WP 2.3….
This rocks, I’d like some more fine grained control if possible on what updates/doesn’t update to FB. I do several blogs and not all make sense for my Facebook profile. My 2 cents, keep up the great work!
