Note: If you get 404 error even after re-generating permalinks, it means that your theme is using an outdated way of getting/display posts from the database. Just drop me an email with your page.php from your theme folder attached.

There will be no more integrating of wp-email to your theme, everything is automatic now, you do not even need to create a page for this.

I have also internationalize this plugin which makes localization much easier.

Hi guys,

WP-EMail 2.10 is ready for testing, I need you guys to help me test this out because I have re-written part of the core code to support the ability to display the email form within pages. Yes, you do not need to manually edit wp-email.php anymore. It will be integrated into the page. An example of course would be this site.

I have added the styling of the email link similar to WP-Print. Check out the screenshot, readme/changelog and download link below.

Thanks alot. I hope I can release this before 1st February 2007

Alongside with the release of WordPress 2.1 today, I have updated the following plugins for WordPress 2.1. Most of them will work for WordPress 2.1 only and it will break if you use it for WordPress 2.0.x. If you need any plugin for WordPress 2.0.x for some reasons, the download link is included in that plugin’s readme.html. I have also release 1 new plugin called WP-ServerInfo, it will display your host’s server PHP and MYSQL information (integrated into WordPress Admin Style) on your WordPress dashboard.

Ignore the ‘Update’ date in the plugin’s readme.html because I will not be updating the version number for bugs found and fixed before 1st February 2007, I will just update the zip file.

EDIT: I just updated WP-Print to 2.10, I have added in the feature that was always in my head. Click here for the screenshot.

EDIT 2: I just updated WP-WAP to 2.10.

I have updated all my plugins readme and added a nice index page to the readme directory as you can see here: http://www.lesterchan.net/wordpress/readme/. All ready for the launch of WordPress 2.1. All my plugins are zipped and waiting to be uploaded and overwritten to the ftp directory.

But nevertheless I hope WordPress 2.1 will be launched on 1st February 2007, so that I can have enough time to update my print and email plugin. They DO WORK for WordPress 2.1, I just want to internationalize it so that they can be translated easily. All my plugins are now internationalize.

If have translated any of them, feel free to attach the .po and .mo file to me. I will then upload to the /i8n/ folder of the respective plugin of the CVS. Take WP-Polls i8n folder for example: http://dev.wp-plugins.org/browser/wp-polls/i18n

I have updated this site to WordPress 2.1 RC1. The good news is I updated some of my plugins to make use of the “technology” of WordPress 2.1 but the bad news is that it is not backward compatible (I am too lazy/busy to make it backward compatible). I will release them when WordPress 2.1 goes gold.

Updated Plugins For WP 2.1:
» WP-Ban 1.10
» WP-DBManager 2.10
» WP-PageNavi 2.10
» WP-Polls 2.14
» WP-PostRatings 1.10
» WP-PostViews 1.10
» WP-RelativeDate 1.10
» WP-Stats 2.10
» WP-UserOnline 2.10
» WP-ServerInfo 1.00 (New Plugin - Display Your Host’s Server PHP and MYSQL Information On Your Dashboard)

Current Plugins That Will Work With WP 2.1:
» WP-EMail 2.07
» WP-Print 2.06

Plugins Not Tested With WP 2.1:
» WP-WAP 2.00

WP-DBManager and WP-ServerInfo cannot work side by side due function name conflicts, I will update WP-DBManager ASAP and also to make it work with WP 2.1 if it doesn’t

EDIT: WP-DBManager will be updated to 2.10

I have coded this plugin within a night. It enables you to display your server’s PHP information from “phpinfo()” and MYSQL information from “SHOW VARIABLES” on your Dashboard under the sub-tab called “WP-ServerInfo”. Here is a screenshot of it. I will release it along side with almost all my plugins updates for WordPress 2.1. Most of them will break with WordPress 2.0.x including this because I am using some of the functions available in WordPress 2.1 only.

If you are wondering what plugin I used to modify those dates to Today, Yesterday, 5 Days ago, 1 minute ago, etc. It is one of my plugin called WP-RelativeDate.

If you are able to see this announcement, it means that the site has successfully move to the new host (Dreamhost to be exact). I signed a 2 year contract with them for (USD$100.80), hopefully they do not let me down.

This site is definitely slower for me in terms of load time as the host no longer reside in Singapore (where I live), but it maybe faster for some of you guys also.

Last but not least, if there is any problem, do post in the forum under Site & Forum Issues

Thanks a lot for your continuous support.

WordPress 2.0.6 has been released and it will be the last release before WordPress 2.1 comes out of the door. And of course I just updated this site to WordPress 2.0.6.

My new download plugin shall be called WP-DownloadManager after suggested by Giovanni Putignano and looking through the names of download scripts listed in HotScripts.

I received emails from some of my users regarding a more advanced ratings system and comments rating system. If I have the time in May to August (my summer holidays), I will jump to it.

Thanks to a fellow member (Turk) in GaMerZ.Forums, I came to know that WordPress 2.1 is in the beta stages, beta 1 to be exact. Some of my plugins maybe broken with WordPress 2.1 like WP-PageNavi and WP-Stats, but I had already fixed them. If you need it to test it out, feel free to drop me an email.

If you find any of my plugins that are not compatible with WordPress 2.1, please let me know so that I do not need to test all my plugins against WordPress 2.1

Now I need some ideas, I have been thinking the name of my new downloads plugin, but just could not come out with any name nice. WP-Downloads and WP-Download-Manager is taken.

I have the following in mind:
WP-Download (without the s)
WP-FileDownloads
WP-DownloadManager

Any suggestions are welcomed =)

I have released updates for 4 of my WordPress plugins namely, WP-Polls 2.13, WP-PostRatings 1.05, WP-Stats 2.06 and WP-UserOnline 2.06. These 4 plugins have been internationalized. You can now easily localize it by translating it into your own language by modifying the .po file that is inside the zip with PoEdit.

I have also release 1 new plugin called WP-Ban. It enables WordPress Admin to ban users by their IP or host name from visiting your WordPress site. When the banned users visit your WordPress Site, they will get a message which can be edited via WP-Admin -> Options -> Ban -> Ban Message.
