Bookmarkify 0.9.4 Corrects Icon Issue
Monday, May 5th, 2008 by Gary KeorkunianPosted in Bookmarkify |
After the 0.9.3 update some sites were reporting an issue that caused the site icon URL to be off. This apparently was caused by the difference in how some hosts structure their directories.
This has been corrected in the latest version - 0.9.4. This version also corrects an issue with the icon display in RSS feeds that affected any site that includes the widget with their feed.
Please download the latest version here.
Thanks to The Late Republic for testing the solution.

This release seems to have broken the icons for my site…

Dwight,
It looks like the widget is looking for the icons in the intended folder, however, they are not there.
Did you load the plugin to the ‘wp-content/plugins/bookmarkify/delicious.ico’ folder.
If not I would recommend doing so. As an alternative, if you are comfortable editing PHP files you could modify the location at line 230 of the bookmarkify.php file. However, I think it best to put bookmarkify in the folder suggested above.
Let us know how it works out.

They are in the folder… I guess it is a server issue?
Is there a way to get .9.3 until I can fix this?

Dwight,
I forwarded the previous version to you via email. Please let know if you do not receive it.

My icons display fine on Firefox, but in IE 7 they none of them show up except the email one. Do you have any idea what is wrong?

Hi Steward,
I believe the issue is related to the .ico format not being supported by IE properly. I have converted all .ico files to .png files. If you download and install the latest update - 0.9.5 I think that will solve your issue. Please let me know how it works out.
Also, once you install this update you can delete the .ico files as they are no longer needed.
Thanks, Gary

Thanks Gary, that fix worked perfectly!

Steward, Glad to hear it. Thanks for checking in.

Hi there!
I recently upgraded to 0.9.5 and no icons are displayed on the site anymore,
any hints? from the thread above i assumed that version should be working?
thanks a lot in advance!

Joscha, when I attempt to access the images on your site directly I get a 404 error. This is either because the images are no loaded in the proper directory “/wp-content/plugins/bookmarkify/” or your site is restricting visitor access to that folder.
If the the problem is the former you only need to upload the images to that directory. If the problem is the latter you need to allow users to access the folder (which is safe). In the case of some hosts, you may not be able to change the permissions. I am working on a change that will allow you to use alternate locations for the images.

Thank you for your quick answer Gary!
All necessary .png files are in the bookmarkify folder, and i just changed CHMOD for the bookmarkify folder to 777 but that didn`t do the trick yet. Is that what you meant with permissions? could it be the change takes a while? all the best!

aaaaah i got it, at least i know what the problem is, if you could tell me where to tweak the php that would be greatly appreciated…
all my wp files are located within
http://xyz//wordpress/
somehow bookmarkify didnt “get that” and is looking here instead:
http://xyz/wp-content/
so it seems that just the path is wrong.
which line in which file to tweak?
i`m very new to all this… thanks a lot in advance!

found it, just had to modify the path. Thx!

Is there a way to separate the onscreen texts form the code? - It is a pain to translate each new version to Spanish. You can see my customized Spanish (old) version in blog.ryouguchi.com and the original English (latest) version at blog.intuicionlogica.com.
If you find a way to do it I’ll happily provide the Spanish texts.

Hi Enrique, I will work on support for internationalization in an upcoming version. I grabbed the Spanish text from your site and will use it in that version. Please stay tuned for this feature in an upcoming version. I appreciate for your Feedback. Gracias, Gary
