WordPress / WPMU Widget - Is there a list of Pligg-sites?

[xiando]

http://wordpresswidgets.trykker.com/...3/diggbart.txt

Change $pligg= to your own site (or if you're a blogger, the pligg site you'd like to vote for) and that's it, now you can offer your Pligg-site visitors a WP Widget which allows WordPress/WPMU users to add a add/vote button on their blogs (Get a WPMU site to include it and it's suddenly available to hundreds or thousands of bloggers..).

People who understand Norwegian can read about it at http://wordpresswidgets.trykker.com/the-pligg-widget/.

This widget only supports one Pligg site as of now, basically because there only is one in Norwegian at the moment (diggbart.com). This may actually a good thing if you want to offer the widget on your pligg-site without promoting everyone else's sites too. But I am going to change it / make a version where the user can select between pligg-sites from a check-box.

So, to make this widget support more than one Pligg-site, the obvious question is:

Is there an "official" (or other) list of Pligg-sites?

Such a list would be very usefull for expanding the Pligg plugin. It occurs to me that it would also be helpfull for spammers, which is sad and depressing. So. Is there such a list? And if not, anyone who wants to have their Pligg site included when I release a English/multisite version of this Widget?

BTW: I know bloggers can just add

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://diggbart.com/evb/check_url.js.php"></script>

- that's actually very very slow compared to loading

<iframe width="98" height="17" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" vspace="0" hspace="0" allowtransparency="true" src="http://diggbart.com/evb/check_url.php?url=http://start.xiando.org/test.html"></iframe>

since that only requires fetching the frame - the JavaScript first tag first loads the JS, which tells you to load the iframe, which makes it do one request, do the JS and run another request. I tested both on a plain .html file and JS really is way slower.

Where do I add this script in pligg or wp?

Funny you should ask. I've been putting a new pligg directory together the past few days and should be available for pliggers to submit their site very soon.

Stay Tuned!

1. This is a WordPress Widget. The requirement to use it is that you:

• Have a WordPress installation, with
• Widget support

See http://wordpress.org/ and http://automattic.com/code/widgets/ for the widgets plugin.

Users who have WP with Widgets (most who install WP add this plugin) can just drop the Widget into plugins/widgets/ and it will automatically be available as a sidebar widget.

2. It's NOT for Pligg sites, it's a WP Widget that makes it simple to add WP content to a Pligg site and vote after it's added. This becomes very good for anyone who runs a Pligg site: What you can do as a Pligg site owner is to basically of offer the script for download ANYWHERE (where you see fit) on your site and tell your users:

"If you are running your own WordPress blogg with the Widget extention then you can download this widget to automatically vote at our site".

Note that as explained above, the widget has 1 variable with gives the URL to the Pligg-site, so you would have to change $pligg = in the script before offering it to your users, and you also have to make sure you have the /env/check_url.php (which is in 0.9 beta, not sure about 0.8) working. Like this URL, which checks if the Norwegian pligg site diggbart.com knows about the swedish pligg site digga.se's URL:

http://diggbart.com/env/check_url.ph.../www.digga.se/

So if http://yoursite.com/env/check_url.ph...ww.anyurl.tld/ works and you've changed $pligg = in the Widget then you're all set, you can offer people a widget and those who install it can use it to in their blogs to post / vote on your site.

But as said, I'd prefer to make a version which supports all known pligg sites where the users can choose with checkboxes - and I'm thinking there should be two versions, a single-site only version people who want to offer that can offer, and a version which supports multiple pligg's.

Thanks! It's nice to have some sites to test with. May I say:

HAS CUSTOM BUTTON: http://wagg.it/evb/check_url.php?url=http://xiando.com/

STOCK BUTTON: http://www.dirtyrottengossip.com/evb...://xiando.com/

STOCK BUTTON:
http://www.ongoss.com/evb/check_url....://xiando.com/

/EVB/ DOESN'T WORK:

http://hottnez.com/myspace/evb/check...://xiando.com/

So in bullet summary, a plugin which makes buttons for the 3 of these sites who actually do work would create 1 button which is custom and two of the green "stock" Pligg.com buttons...

I have added this to my widgets folder, and am able to activate it. However, when i add it to my sidebar and give it a title and save it, it does not appear on the site. When I then go back to look at it again, it no longer has the title saved. Any ideas?
