Google Friend Connect allows a website to quickly add social features with any coding. It is really easy to put up the little gadget you see on the right - just copy 2 files and a piece of code to where it should appears.
If you have an OpenID, why not join up? There is nothing to use really. But it would be nice to put some names to the visitors after running this blog for 2 years.
The member gadget fits nicely into the 2-column spanning block of AdAdvantage. There are some ideas to revamp this block to better use the space. Will see how it goes.
I had updated this blog to WordPress 2.7 and the latest K2 nightly. While overall looks fine (the WordPress and K2 developers did a great job of backward compatibility), there are still seems to be some minor problem in K2, so I’m waiting for more upstream update before releasing a new package of AdAdvantage.
If you are intrepid, check out the code from the svn.
While upgrading my blogs to WordPress 2.5, I took the chance to sync the AdAdvantage scheme to the latest K2 svn version.
This version works fine with WordPress 2.5 (Please report any problem in the Issues page).
Go to the Google Code project page to download.
If you have problem with the Live Search or Rolling Archive giving the error message ‘No input file specified.’, look at this thread on the K2 forum.
This is what fixed it for me (not sure if this has any long term problem):
Go to Settings > Permalinks
If your setting is something like
/%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%/
remove the last / in the Custom Structure to look like this:
/%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%
Some simple tests show that things are working, including the ajax search and rolling archive. Old links also are working.
Try if this works for you.
Initial test show that the AdAdvantage theme works without much problem with WordPress 2.5.
This weekend I will attempt to update the SVN to the latest K2 nightly build which support WordPress 2.5.
