Wordpress Notifier for Mac Released!

December 11th, 2008  |  Published in Wordpress Notifier  |  16 Comments

Well, yes, it had been released before in anticipation of the original release date, but today is the day I am celebrating shipping it. [Wordpress 2.7](http://wordpress.org/development/2008/12/coltrane/) is out and for all those who do not use the development versions (99.999% of you), [Wordpress Notifier](http://www.wpnotifier.com/) now works!

Please leave me any feedback.

I have already had an offer to translate it into French. If anyone want to translate it into another language please contact me.

    Hey that’s great. I love it.

    Could you probably think about two features:

    • Growl integration for the on screen notification
    • support for multiple wordpress blogs

    thanks! ;-)

    Frank

    Found your app today. Quite neat, though I wish you would consider using grayscale/black icons (and badges) in the menubar which seems more consistant with the rest of icons up there. I find it really distracting, and perhaps even ugly or at the very least out of style. Anyway, I would be willing to translate it to Dutch, so you can contact me about that. :)

    Thanks for your hard work on this!

    Hi Simon,

    The icon is black and white (and no blue number) when there are no pending comments. It only switches to the blue/black icon when comments come in.

    I think it fits in really well. Try it out.

    Thanks for your offer to translate it. I will contact you soon.

    Thanks for your offer Frank for translating.

    Support for multiple blogs will be in the future.

    Is the URL for my blog or for my WordPress? I have my WP files in a different directory…

    Either way, I’m getting a Cocoa Error 403?

    Mathew With One T, For wordpress itself. It must be the URL pointing to the directory containing xmlrpc.php

    Thanks for the reply. I seem to still be getting the same error. Clicking on the Open Comments button will take me to the right page, but I get the Cocoa Error 403. XML-RPC is enabled and does work with ScribeFire. Any suggestions or do you want me to submit a bug report?

    great job! I just wish it would have been compatible with wordpress 2.5+ not only 2.7+.

    it you need help translating it in Romanian, I can give you a hand. Also, if you have a windows version of the same software I can translate that into Romanian.

    Superb!

    I’d like to contribute by translating this thing into Swedish, if that has interest.

    Great work – thank you very much. I would be proud to help you translate it. I am very good in German and Turkish. So just contact me, when you need some help :-)

    Kind regards from Hamburg

    Nice work, Paul. Any way to let users choose which browser they want Comments to open up in? Preferably, I’d like to have them open in a Fluid.app-built browser.

  14. Paul says:

    Micah, thanks. One way might be to use an alternative file extension such as xyz.mywebarchive and associate that with your app. it may work, may not. I am not sure where you change file associations in OS X but safari will be the default file type associated with .webarchive.
