PowncePress, a sidebar widget for Wordpress to display your latest public note, is available for download. Get it here, or alternatively, check out the Wordpress Plugin Page.
Version 0.2 // 27th November 07
PowncePress 0.2 is a significant improvement on the initial version, in the sense that it does more without having to hack the code, but there is still a lot to do. Improvements include an Options panel to configure username, surrounding tags, style and number of posts
- Download and unzip the archive, then move it to your ‘wp-content/plugins’ directory.
- Go to your /wp-admin directory, Plugins, and activate PowncePress.
- Go to Presentation > Widgets and drag PowncePress into your sidebar.
- Click the options icon (Configure), enter your details and you are good to go.
An example can be found at commanddotcom.com and blog.linfographik.com
Thanks to Jeff Hodsdon for the Pownce PHP Library.
Edit: PowncePress is currently PHP5 only, due to the library used to parse XML from Pownce. I’ll have a solution to this in the next couple of days.
Nice plugin.. Now, is there a way to change the look of it? I’d rather have it output just text so it matches the rest of my sidebar. (Take a look at my site if you’re confused as to what I want)

Yeah, as I posted on _your_ blog (this is all getting very confusing!) there is a bit of CSS near the top of the powncepress.php file, and the best thing to do is start pulling values out of it.
Hopefully it will fall back to your original style.
I saw that and modified a bit of the display code so it matches the site. I have the modified file available if you’d like.

No worries! It’s a nice add-on. I’m just too lazy and cheap to install the Wordpress software on my domain. Ha!
Thanks!
Hello guys! Please, somebody, give me wise advice. My credit is really bad. I have one bad credit card and need one more to solve some money problems. How to know whether my application will be denied or not. And is this a reliable website to apply online? I am waiting for your answer. Thanks

That’s very strange.
PowncePress is reliant on Pownce’s API, so if Leah has made any significant changes to the way in which data can be retrieved then there may be problems.
However, I am going to look into a new version of PowncePress this week, and hopefully all the problems will be ironed out.
in plugins…when activating i am getting the following error…
Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_CLASS in /homepages/16/d98629281/htdocs/latenightcoffee/wp-content/plugins/powncepress/pownce.class.php on line 18
any ideas?
