@WPML breaks #PressIt! bookmarklet for #WordPress. Hey dude, where’s my post?!? #wtf
I was just reporting my discovery of WPML, when I found out that the built-in PressIt! bookmarklet doesn’t work in combination with WPML. My post had disappeared, so I decided to report this phenomenon first and then rewrite my bilingual post on WPML… 
Come on, Dae! This is not bad. This is the best way to learn and never forget 
Besides: Rewriting an article gives you more time to think things over and come back stronger with a better post…
BTW: I recopied/repasted the bookmarklet (maybe WPML had changed it and I needed new, updated code) and retried with a test post, but nothing happened, although my WP-to-Twitter Plugin picked it up and posted a broken link on Twitter… Delete tweet and copying this post to my clipboard this time, in case something goes wrong… I’ll be back!
Edit: I had WPML Setting “Language name as a parameter”, but switching it to “Different languages in directories” restored WP-to-Twitter functionality. Yay!
Now I need to thing if I really want double tweets for every bilingual post… It does give me the opportunity to name my posts in the language they’re written in and get them tweeted in the same way. I’m just not sure if I will end up having a dutch Twitter account and an english one. I have a feeling the world isn’t ready yet for multilingual weblogs in conjunction with Twitter… What do yóu think?
