You'll find it .Unfortunately it has to get reviewed by the dev-team of Mozilla before you'll find it on it's main page (or in the search results). I submitted the plugin for review on August 21, but it's still waiting for a review in the queue. (Currently it's on position 56 of 241, after ~1 month!!). As long as it's in this queue I cannot do anymore than waiting (and hoping that Mozilla extends it's dev-team to fit it's extremely shortened release cycles).I hope this answer helps,Martin Hi Ludo,the plugin is ablvaaile for FF6 since August 21, 2011.

That might just be a check that the program does to verify that it's a good URL though, so another program might offer it.I've accomplished what you're trying to do before by just using the HOSTS file. I edited the HOSTS file to translate a name I typed into the IP address of the server. It seemed to work out pretty well but that was only on one machine and probably a simpler use than how you're trying to use it. I'd be interested to know if anybody else has other suggestions.

I'm really looking forward to being able to store more than just the short and long URLs get crackin!Kurt Looks great I especially like the meta_type, meta_value and tags fildes.

By accident I tteewed a comments made from my new WP Wall plug-in. That may even be a bug In any case, everyone MUST go and fix their settings for this as soon as they install it, rather than wait for a boo boo to happen, like I did.As far as install, etc. A BREEZE!!!

It assumes you've already got Google Analytics installed on your blog via some other means; either a Google Analytics plugin or having added it to your blog theme.@David - I assume that Marsedit is using the XMLRPC publishing protocol. Have you enabled remote publishing in the plugin settings? - What the plugin awlols is for you to attach traffic returning to your blog from Twitter to a specific campaign in Google Analytics.

It's set up so that you can have protected access, which allows (for example) for me to do what I've suggested here in the post, which is to give accounts to a few friends without opening it up to the whole world. , I think it’s perfectly leigaimtte and healthy to want to know which of the stuff you share is appealing and which is not, and stats can be a way to do that.In any case, the API is the real reason for having something more robust like YOURLS.

Or are the group short URLs automatically generated?They are automatically generated. If you have the pretty setting turned on, then they're generated as username' or groupname'. Otherwise they are random.If so, where do group admins/members find the group’s short URL?It's printed into the group/profile header.It’s be cool if this could be integrated into Achievements, when, for example, a member uploads 100 photos, they’d unlock their own short username URL.Good idea. I'll put a filter in the next version that would allow this to be built.Are group admins and members able to view their own short URL stats – such as bpsite.com/username+ ?No, but it's an interesting idea. The shortcoming of this would be that YOURLS only keeps track of visits to the short URL, so it wouldn't be an accurate count of *all* visits.

Used the info here to set up yourls in nginx. Pretty much everything is working except stats. So, from the admin interface, if I click on the icon for stats of a specific link, it tries to go to that url appending a '+' at the end. But my nginx doesn't recognize that url and sends a 403.Has anybody else had this problem? Hi guys. Used the info here to set up yourls in nginx. Pretty much everything is working except stats.

Has anybody else had this problem?
