Testing a cross-posting plug-in

Blush card: Japanese boy and girl

Apologies for this relatively content-less post, but I'm testing LJ-XP, a Livejournal CrossPoster plug-in. There doesn't seem to be much documentation on the website, so I had to go hunting for more info and found some here. Now let's try using the "more" tag, which should hopefully translate into a link back in LJ-land...


In theory, this paragraph should appear on a different page in Wordpress (I've used this before in my Babylon Five Virgin blog), but also NOT appear in the cross-posted LJ entry. Let's see what happens. For those wanting to see what happens on my Livejournal page themselves, follow this link.

The photo above, by the way, is of one of my new Blush card designs. More about these in an upcoming post.

Update #1: Hmmm...the "more" tag doesn't seem to translate properly. Must investigate...

Update #2: Aha! I had copied the "more" tag given on the LJ-XP site, which was incorrect (it had a capital 'M'). Changing it to lowercase fixed the problem.

Looks like it's working! I like the link to post comments in the lj entry :)

Yes, to encourage people to post here. :-) I'm going to still try checking both places, though.

I encourage people to leave a comment on my main site - but I will reply to them on any site I crosspost to. It can be a pain sometimes, but it works.

Ooh, I like your crossposter better than mine! :)
