*From* your WordPress blog? You must be using a plugin of some sort, which means that you should probably contact the developer of that plugin for support.

Do you have the Twitter Facebook app installed by any chance?

Which plugin are you using? If you're using my plugin (http://mattjacob.com/pingfm-wordpress..., I'd be happy to provide tech support, but it doesn't sound like you are. If you're using a different plugin, you should contact the developer and get support directly from him.

Matt Jacob replied on December 09, 2009 18:07 to the question "ping.fm without self-advertisements?" in Ping.fm:

That's most likely something controlled by sites on the other side of Ping.fm. I bet everything coming through the APIs for Facebook, Twitter, etc. displays the source.

Version 1.3.2 will be hitting the airwaves shortly. You can use auto-upgrade to get it, or you can download and install manually from here:

Since when are there advertisements?

Matt Jacob replied on December 08, 2009 22:26 to the question "Ping.fm Custom URL Plugin: Ping.fm does not recognize Custom URL" in Ping.fm:

From your WordPress admin...

1. Go to Settings > Permalinks
2. Click 'Save Changes' (you don't have to actually make changes)
3. Try adding your site to Ping.fm again

I'm trying to determine if this is a bug with WordPress or with my plugin, but if it's my fault, there will be a maintenance release soon.

Matt Jacob replied on November 22, 2009 15:13 to the question "Can I delete postings by email to custom url if only network?" in Ping.fm:

If you're only posting to a custom URL, then you should have control of everything on the other end. There's no way to send a delete command from Ping.fm, and, in fact, getting users to unknowingly do things is a common exploit, so most web apps protect against this kind of attack.

Matt Jacob replied on November 20, 2009 16:11 to the question "Ping.fm Custom URL Plugin: Ping.fm does not recognize Custom URL" in Ping.fm:

You should be able to browse to your secret URL, and it should come back with an error message: "no direct access allowed, post something instead". If you're not receiving that error message, then something might be wrong.

Can you give me your version numbers for the plugin and for WordPress? PHP and MySQL version numbers would be helpful if you know them.

Also, I can do some more in-depth testing for you if you want to continue this discussion via email (firstname@firstname+lastname.com). Ping me your site address and we'll go from there. :-)

Matt Jacob replied on November 20, 2009 05:27 to the question "Ping.fm Custom URL Plugin: Ping.fm does not recognize Custom URL" in Ping.fm:

Hi there,

I'm the developer of that plugin. Usually when that happens, there's another plugin installed (Bad Behavior or another security plugin) that's blocking access.

Are you seeing any error messages after activating the plugin?

Matt

Matt Jacob replied on November 12, 2009 23:55 to the question "Ping.fm gives me an error every time...how does it work? It reads, " Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in /home/content/j/u/s/justinsterlin/html/main/wp-content/plugins/cr-post2pingfm/PHPingFM.php on line 20 "" in Ping.fm:

Looks like you were using the "CR Post to Ping.fm" plugin. As you discovered, it probably requires PHP 5, and you were probably using PHP 4 at the time. Whoever wrote that plugin should do a better job of checking to make sure the minimum requirements exist before activating the plugin.

Matt Jacob replied on November 03, 2009 03:50 to the problem "Photo Uploads Not Completely Working" in Ping.fm:

This may or may not be related, but I haven't had any success posting images today. I've tried through my Google Apps account and through another account I have (with Tuffmail, which is widely regarded as being one of the best email providers out there). Even plain text posts via email aren't coming through.
