What's New in Version 1.1.0:

Added 3 new URL Shortener APIs: Google, TinyURL and Tweetburner.

I downloaded and installed this but don't see in the control panel where you edit the hook nor can I see on the board where you use it. Is it automatic or is there a button to push? Can you explain how it works exactly...

***Ok I found it on the board. Nice app :)

There's no setting. Just upload XML's hook and you'll see a new link besides VIEW NEW CONTENT link.

Yes I found it. I realized it after I asked the question. Another nice hook from you....

Tks! ;)

Hello,

I was wondering if there are plans to use bit.ly custom domain's. Bit.ly now allows you to host your own custom domain name free of charge. It would be nice to just input your api key via the admin cp but I don't think its coded for this. API Documentation via JSON

Also if I wanted to add it would I just add it in the api's folder with a api.php and conf.php file?

Thanks,
The guy who likes to do hard stuff

EDIT: I did it!

What do you think of this api lol
