Hello everyone. I thank you all for your feedback and reports and support that everyone has shown me for the AlieneilA Event Calendar plugin. I am doing my best to adding features and fixes that are sent to me. Sometimes work gets in the way and slows me down, but I’m getting there.
So, Word Press 3.0 has been released. While the videos of its new features have been awesome, I have not upgraded my site yet. Why? Well I don’t have the time to deal with issues should they arise, such as if some plugins I have installed aren’t compatible, or if this theme isn’t compatible, or if my own plugins are using depreciated functions. I’ve seen other people reporting about “Not authorized to access this page” errors and such, and I just don’t want to risk dealing with that right now. I’ll get to it though…
That said, I have received a report or two that the plugin had some issues with 3.0 and registering the widgets. I THINK I have that issue fixed with version 1.7.2b, so someone please let me know if it is working.
Now, the Tutorials… I’ve begun throwing together some tutorials and informational documentation and have added a new page that you can find at the top “Docs & Tutorials”. I’m trying to be as detailed as I can in explaining everything, but if I’m missing something that you’d like to know… tell me and I’ll add it.
And finally, Updates… After I released 1.6b and added the ability to add events from the Add/Edit posts page, I got a report about a bug when post titles or descriptions contained special character, such as single quotes…. which leads to the 1.7b release.
1.7b introduced a new layout system. It is not 100% completed yet, but I was in the middle of adding it when I received the above bug reports, so I completed enough of it to make it functional, saved and released. I still plan on adding a color picker to the color fields, but so far I have had a couple kudos sent my way, so I hope the rest of you like it.
1.7.1b was an attempt to fix an issue someone reported about “Not authorized to access this page” errors when they tried to go to the Settings page for the plugin. I’m not sure if it worked for them, but they’re the only one to have reported the issue, so anyone else please let me know what’s up.
1.7.2b as mentioned earlier, I updated a couple depreciated Word Press functions that my plugin was using… while WP 2.9.2 seemed to be fine with them though they’d been depreciated since WP 2.8… I think the WP honchos must have finally really depreciated them with WP 3.0. My fault though for using depreciated code, a lot of Word Press functions aren’t well documented, so it can lead to mistakes for us developers. I’m trying though, I’ve only been working with Word Press for about 6 months now, so bare with me =)
As always… post in the forums or the contact form if you come across an issue or have a suggestion for new features.
Cheers!
