Faceboook and Twitter, and Google+ if possible.

Best plugins:
Twitter: WP to Twitter
FB: Autom8ted (in beta: mail developer ) ;)
Google+: There aren't any.
Note: I am the developer of the Autom8ted plugin. If you email me I will gladly provide you with the plugin for free, and as much support as you could ever want :)

@Zioroaster The Autom8ted version I am going to give to you tomorrow has a nicely working FB link. Depending on how my morning goes, I might send you my current dev copy which has support for Twitter and G+. Cross your fingers for a good morning with little debugging required :P

On thing I struggle with is that I've already published a couple of new
products today, and as it stands right now, I won't be able to re-publish
them so that they can post to FB and/or Twitter.
Is it really difficult to program in (not for me, but for the plugin
itself) an ability to publish a post that has already been published? If
not, it might be a competitive advantage for you.

We already have this feature implemented at the current time on Dev.

Bringing this back up. Anyone using any current social network publishing plugins that publish product info in a satisfactory manner?

None that I'm aware, except @chriscct7 who is working on this (that is what
I read).

Great. I am the worst guy to be the guinea pig. :-)
Better it break BEFORE it's installed.
Shoot me a note when it's ready.

HI;
So, was the new file supposed to be attached to this email? I don't see it.
Also---If we delete the previous install from the WP Admin page, that
should delete the whole folder, correct?
Kevin
Support Staff 25 Posted by chriscct7 on 27 May, 2012 07:24 PM
Yes. And I thought it was attached to the email I sent you (not to the
forum).
26 Posted by zionroaster on 27 May, 2012 07:36 PM
Never rec'd.
Pls send to: [email blocked]
Thanks,
Kevin

Cancel that last request.
Just located it.
Sorry.

OK;
Just installed the plugin. As a low to mid-level WP user, I see that in
order to activate the plugin, I need to program a FB application. That's
not good. If I have to do that, I'm going to deactivate and then uninstall
the plugin.
Since I am patient, and you seem to be interested in getting me (or perhaps
the Jigoshop community) to use this app.
So---As a fairly knowledgeable user, I am seeing a confusing entrance to
the use of this.
As a user, all I want to do is put in my FB and Twitter or Google+ ID's or
use their apps to publish my products. From what I see, I can't do that.
Thoughts?
Kevin
