Wordpress Plugin: Digg & Reddit Me
This is another useful and very simple Wordpress plugin like others but different in the usage.
It places a Digg, Reddit or both button on the page or post you want without modifying templates or php files.
Just activate it and go to modify the page or the post you want add the button(s) and in the visual editor insert one of the following “activation-tag”:
- [ digg-me ] displays the Digg button
- [ reddit-me ] displays the Reddit button
- [ digg-reddit-me ] displays both buttons overlapped (Digg above, Reddit below)
Each activation-tag goes without spaces (I had to put spaces otherwise it converts them into buttons :)
The buttons are displayed, always, on the left where you position them, at the moment the aren’t other options to change positioning or anything else, just drop the activation-tag and display it.
Make attention, the buttons are displayed only when you are in the single page or single post, it will be override on the main loop, category pages, archives, etc…
Requirements:
WordPress 2.x or later (I think it works in 1.5 too but I didn’t test it).
Installation:
- Download the Wordpress plugin Digg & Reddit Me
- uncompress it with your preferred unzip/untar program or use the command line: tar xzvf digg-reddit-me.tar.gz
- copy the file digg-reddit-me.php in your plugins directory at your wordpress blog (/wp-content/plugins)
- activate the Digg & Reddit Me Wordpress plugin at your Plugins admin page
Usage & Screenshots:
Modify a page or a post to insert the button you like:
This is right (it places the Digg button, replace [ digg-me ] with [ reddit-me ] to get the Reddit button)
This is right too (it places both the buttons)
This is wrong
Changelog:
- 0.1 Initial release

If you use a caption in an image in the same post, it screws up the post. Try it. WP 2.7

Strange. When I try to use this plugin, it adds the button, but it also adds a chunk of the post in the header of the page, which makes it show up on the top of the page. It takes the chunk of code, including the digg button and the image at the beginning of the post, and makes it in the title for the page, and the meta description.
