Lester, thanks for doing this so quickly I love your plugz.

Congratulations on taking the time to update your plugins to WordPress 2. The plugins you provide a most useful and beneficial to the wider WordPress community.

Could you post the link to the 1.5.2 versions? Is there a reason why you chose to only make them available on request, considering the large number of sites that still use 1.5? Thanks very much. Rohan.

Thanks Lester. It’s awesome when I can apply 2.0 plugs to a 1.5 WP install. I tested out the WP-email plugin on a 1.5.2 blog and it works fine except for a couple things:

Long hyperlinks do not wrap and will print off the page (for me).
Footnote plugin that I use does not work (tags not recognized) – but that is expected. http://www.elvery.net/drzax/2005/07/29/new-wordpress-plugin-footnotes/

The above are not mod requests as I know I’m working off a WP install that would not be “supported.” Just an FYI of what I came up with.

I’m going to test your 2.0 plugs for email and db back-up. If they work, this way I don’t need to reapply when upgrading WP in a few months. I’ll let you know how it goes.

everytime i cast my votes this errors show up…. any idea ?

wp 2.0 email did not work on 1.5.2. I’m not sure why, and after going htrough the code in class-smtp.php, there is no reason for it to error out where it is. Well, I’m not going to implement a tweaked version outside of my test sandbox.

Decided not to attempt the DB back-up. I’ll just back-up manually through php-admin for a while longer.

Thanks for the great plug-ins. I’ll be waiting a few months prior to upgrading to WP 2.0 so I’ll wait for new plug-ins too.

Great work!!!

Thanks for the support guys!

Rohan, Double Dubs: I have updated my post to display the download URLs for WP 1.5.2 version of my plugins. Sorry for the trouble.

scart: Sorry my bad, it is a bug, open up polls.php, find
add_action(‘wp_head’, ‘vote_poll’);
change to
add_action(‘init’, ‘vote_poll’);

I just installed your poll script for WP 2.0, its fantastic. My only complaint is that its not XHTML compliant out of the box.

WP-Polls for WP 1.5.2 is 404, already tried installing the 2.0 version with no luck, TIA

Hi,

the actual wp-polls link: http://www.lesterchan.net/others/downloads/wp-polls200a.zip is broken. Use http://www.lesterchan.net/others/downloads/wp-polls202a.zip instead.

great work!

regards,
marcus.

Quantum: XHTML? As in which part of the polls code is invalid? I am not so good in XHTML validation stuff =) Maybe you can help me with it.

John: Try downloading again, I fixed the 404. Thanks for the feedback.

Marcus Kimpenhaus: Glad you found it. LOL, I overlook it on my part.

Your 1.5.2 e-mail works like a charm in my first test. The WP 2.0 version probably also worked in my 1.5.2 version, but I was an idiot and didn’t see the email options tab.

I’m using “send mail” instead of SMTP and I’m not sure what the differences will be. Still waiting for 4 test e-mails (I have lots of e-mail accounts from different providers) to push through 30 minutes later. The first one came in at 5 minutes. Not sure what’s up with the rest, but the plug-in is working. If you have any thoughts, let me know. (yeah – checked the spam folder already)

Thanks again!!!

Thanks for the compliment. The version of 2.0 not really comaptible for 1.5.2

Hi GaMerZ.
Just a quick note to let you know that I’ve installed two of your plug-ins on my sports blog and they are fantastic! The poll one is beyond what I was expecting and the friendliness with which you deal with people is a pleasure to see.

I had a couple of problems with the plug-ins but found the answers via a search through your forums. Vastly helpful.

Thanks for the compliements Aff =) Feel free to drop me an email if u encounter anything =D

I’m attempting to use your UserOnline plugin for WP 1.5. I am using a third party host server and I am having trouble running the install.php. Is there a way I can manually configure my database to take advantage of this plugin?

THANKS!!

hello again i just want to ask what php editor you are using or do you any suggestions? thank you.

I like the who’s online plugin. I see your plugin also shows where the users are… GREAT.

Is it also possible to show the names browsing a page where you are on?

Like:
Users browsing this page: name name name etc

Sec: It would be great if you used AJAX, so the names en number of quests etc is shown on the fly, lik eis done with:
