Thread: kick.ie - an irish digg-like site

ive seen the 50% advertising revenue share bit .. but where are the adsense ads?

kick.ie - an irish digg-like site

digg-like, more like digg clone! it looks the exact same, i assumed digg were giving away their source for free.

How can you get a "kick it" button for your blog?

After you submit a story to the site, the html for the 'kick it' counter is provided. You can also use the following format:

HTML Code:

<a href="http://kick.ie/kick/?url=[url]"><img src="http://kick.ie/Services/Images/KickItImageGenerator.ashx?url=[url]" border="0" alt="kick it on kick.ie"/></a>

I suppose what I'm looking for is a button that I could incorporate directly into wordpress blogs, like the "digg it" etc., ones

I think I see the problem... Your kick method doesn't support title attributes, so it's not compatible with the existing wordpress plugin

Ok, I have modified the html. It now takes the the title attribute too:

<a href="http://kick.ie/kick/?url=[url]&title=[title]"><img src="http://kick.ie/Services/Images/KickItImageGenerator.ashx?url=[url]" border="0" alt="kick it on kick.ie"/></a>

Cool

I've added it to the plugin, though if you have a better image it would help

(you can see it in action by clicking into any of my blog posts)
