FFDirect, a wordpress plugin for direct friendfeed posting

FFDirect is a wordpress plugin that will immediately submit your posts to friendfeed the moment they are published. Any images in the article will also be included, as well as links to audio files.

Please make sure you set your friendfeed nickname and remote key after the installation and fine-tune the posting options!

Features:
* Images included in your posts will also be submited and visible in the corresponding friendfeed entry.
* The same applies to any link to audio (.mp3, .wav, .aac) files.
* Your posts will appear in friendfeed the moment you publish them.
* The body of your post will appear as the first comment in friendfeed. Good for readers, and good for searching.
* URL auto-tagging that works nicely with Google Analytics.
* Pulls number of comments and “likes” from friendfeed and shows them under your blog posts.

    I just installed it. In my wordpress admin panel, I put my ff username & remote key, pressed “Update Options” and got the following:

    Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class services_json in [my server]/wp-content/plugins/ffdirect/JSON.php on line 116

    I’m running Wordpress 2.8. Any clues of what I’m doing wrong?

    Well, whatever it was, version 0.7.0 seems to fixed it. Thanx!

    @georgeadams: thank you for reporting it. I added an extra test to check if the class is already defined.

    I’m giving it a try. Only one post so far but it worked great.

    I get very little feedback on FriendFeed so I’d really prefer that when selecting “Show number of FF likes and comments at the end of posts” that it doesn’t show anything unless there are comments, I don’t want to drive traffic to FriendFeed, I want to drive traffic to my blog.

    And one suggestion: Some kind of option to end the post with a tag line
    “From Gary Said… http://GarySaid.com/
    Or an logo from my site or something. Just a thought…

    @aucrise: You can’t currently. I’m adding it to the todo list for the next version.
