Future Enhancement Request
Permalink Browser Info Environment
I've been using this add-on for awhile, and it's performed flawlessly as advertised. One thing that would be nice for a future version, though, would be the ability to select the prefix text in the "Custom Attributes" dialog when setting up a page. Sometime I'd like the prefix to say "New Blog Post" and other times I'd like it to say "New File Upload" but, currently this isn't possible.
Just a thought... no big deal really... but it would make the add-on just a tiny bit more flexible and functional, IMHO.
Anyway, thanks for providing this add-on. As I said above, it's really great!

Chris

Yes, that's exactly what I have in mind. I have no idea how difficult that would be to implement (I'm not a programmer), but if it could be done it sure would make the add-on much nicer. I was thinking maybe a custom attribute? But that kinda defeats the automatic nature of the add-on.
I dunno... just a thought. Hope you think of a way of doing it.

I have been thinking about this some more, and I think a good way of doing this would be to have two prefix texts - one for new pages and another for updated pages. As well, the add-on could use the page name field from the database and append this to the appropriate prefix text. So, if I create a new page and name it "Concrete 5 is Great!" the tweet would look like this when the page is created:
New Article - Concrete 5 is Great!
And, if I later update the page, the tweet would look like this:
Updated Article - Concrete 5 is Great!
See what I mean? What do you think?

Yep, sounds like a plan!

From what you say am I right thinking that if you added a page from the Blog section of your site you'd like it to be able to say 'New blog post - xxxxxxx' and if from, say, Events page 'New event added - xxxx' and so on?
That's a nice idea, I like it. Will have a think about a nice way of implementing it, you may well see it in a future update!
