bit.ly was Used for URL Shortening when Not Set
i am using the private Beta, have my tr.im account set-up for URL shortening and this post of mine automatically went to a bit.ly -- which i do not even have set up in the account....

i have the account set to my tr.im account and not tr.im anonymous. is there something else i need to do to get my tr.im account to default for URL shortening?

Again I cannot replicate this. I will consider this solved in the update to 1.9.1.4b where URL shortening was overhauled as three more shorteners were added. If not so please update with a another reply here.

Inappropriate?I am not able to replicate this. We have overhauled URL shortening and added three more URL shorteners for the next release so this may have been fixed already.
However, are you shortening the same URL after changing your URL shortening? For the moment we cache shortened URLs and wont do the same one twice with a different service.
Can you give me some details? -
Inappropriate?well, i had put in a full unshortened URL in and then it shortened it using bit.ly.
i had all of my accounts (there are 4) set to shorten using tr.im and i have my tr.im account details in the preferences.
not sure if that helps. i am using the most current beta as well. -
Inappropriate?I cant replicate this. I will leave this open until after the next update and you have confirmed you do not see it anymore.

Inappropriate?ok, so upgraded to 1.9.1.4b -- here is the URL to my post - http://twitter.com/filmfreakmafia/sta...
the URL did not specifically shorten (as you can see) and my account setting is set to tr.im for my tr.im account.
the original extra was as follows:
watched The Ten (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0811106/) over the weekend -- a feature from 2007 @SIFFNews -- definitely worth a look...watch for the review upcoming this week
it did go over the 140 limit. the link will work in Twitter post.
is there some other info I can give you to help investigate? if so, please let me know.1 Comment Add a comment

Did you actually click Shorten URLs from the gear menu next to the Post button? Nambu does not yet do it automatically. -
Inappropriate?ok, no, i did not....i did not know Nambu did not automatically shorten. thank you for the clarification. totally my bad.1 Comment Add a comment

It should but for now it does not. If over 140 it should do it, but we have just not added it yet.

Inappropriate?I don't have a tr.im account (use it anonymously), but I'm having the same issue of it auto-selecting bit.ly for all shortening, even though I have explicitly set the shortening to tr.im.
I have a post for my problem specifically, which may be a duplicate of this issue. http://feedback.nambu.com/nambu/topic...
Occurs in the most recent version of Nambu (1.9.1.9b).
I’m sad
