Ping URL when aliases are in use

It actually uses the url() function..........

/**
 * Implementation of hook_nodeapi().
 */
function pingfm_nodeapi(&$node, $op) {
  switch ($op) {
    case 'insert':
    case 'update':
      if (!empty($node->status) && !empty($node->pingfm) && !empty($node->pingfm['post'])) {
        $replacements = array(
          '!title' => $node->title,
          '!teaser' => strip_tags($node->teaser),
          '!url' => url('node/'. $node->nid, array('absolute' => TRUE)),
          '!user' => $node->name,
        );
        $result = pingfm_post(t($node->pingfm['format'], $replacements), $node->pingfm['method'], $node->title, user_load(array('uid' => $node->uid)));
        drupal_set_message($result ? t('Successfully posted to Ping.fm') : t('Failed posting to Ping.fm'), $result ? 'status' : 'warning');
      }
      break;
  }
}

You can see !url use the url() function, which will turn the node/nid to the full URL with the alias. If you play around with this and figure something out with it, I'd be happy to take a look :-) .

Maybe it sends out node/%nid because the alias hasn't been created from Path module yet? Hmmmmm. Maybe if we set the Ping.fm weight higher in the system table?

Rob,

That sounds right, the alias is probably not defined yet by then.
