Lester Chan’s WordPress Plugins June 2009 Update

Posted by Lester Chan at 18:52 in WP-Ban, WP-CommentNavi, WP-DBManager, WP-DownloadManager, WP-EMail, WP-PageNavi, WP-PluginsUsed, WP-Polls, WP-PostRatings, WP-PostViews, WP-Print, WP-RelativeDate, WP-ServerInfo, WP-Stats, WP-Sticky, WP-UserOnline

Here is my June 2009 WordPress plugins update containing all my 16 WordPress plugins update. All of them should work on WordPress 2.8 as I did not test them on any WordPress version below that.

Now my plugins uses jQuery for AJAX instead of TW-Sack. I have also updated the widget code to make use of the new WordPress 2.8 new Widget class and that supports multi-instances widgets. The widget code has now been merge with the main plugin file so the standalone widget plugin file is no longer in use. Please delete the whole plugin folder and upload it again to avoid any error.

As WordPress 2.8 supports loading of JavaScript in the footer, all my plugins’ JavaScripts will be loaded in the footer. Be sure you have in your theme footer.php.

Be sure to read the readme.html and checkout the changelog for more information and most importantly NOTE THE TABS AT THE TOP

JavaScript In My Plugins II

Posted by Lester Chan at 19:11 in Site, WP-EMail, WP-Polls, WP-PostRatings, WP-ServerInfo, WP-UserOnline, WordPress

I have completed the “update” process to my 5 of my plugins (WP-Polls, WP-PostRatings, WP-Email, WP-ServerInfo and WP-UserOnline) which use JavaScript.

  • WP-Polls and WP-PostRatings uses JavaScript on the frontend as well as the backend
  • WP-Email and WP-UserOnline uses JavaScript on the frontend only
  • WP-ServerInfo uses JavaScript on the backend only

Unfortunately the changes require at least WordPress 2.8 onwards to make use of the JavaScript enhancements in WordPress 2.8. I have updated this site to WordPress 2.8 Bleeding Edge aka WordPress 2.8 Nightly in order to test the JavaScript changes on a live site.

If you view the HTML source of this page, you will notice that only the CSS files get loaded in the header and the JavaScript gets loaded in the footer.

If you are running WordPress 2.8 bleeding edge, perhaps you can help me test out the plugins. Thanks in advanced :)

  WP-PostRatings 1.50 Beta 1 (unknown, 9,532 hits)

  WP-Email 2.50 Beta 1 (unknown, 7,364 hits)

  WP-Polls 2.50 Beta 1 (unknown, 11,209 hits)

  WP-UserOnline 2.50 Beta 1 (unknown, 4,305 hits)

  WP-ServerInfo 1.50 Beta 1 (unknown, 1,953 hits)

JavaScript In My Plugins

Posted by Lester Chan at 01:50 in Plugins, WP-PostRatings, WordPress

Only 5 of my plugins (WP-Polls, WP-PostRatings, WP-Email, WP-ServerInfo and WP-UserOnline) use JavaScript. The JavaScripts are packed using Dean Edward’s Packer and the only framework use just for AJAX is TW-Sack or Simple AJAX Code-Kit (SACK). TW-Sack is extremely lightweight and easy to use but unfortunately, it can be used only for AJAX purposes. The reason I used TW-Sack instead of jQuery is simple, at the time I created my plugin, jQuery does not exists yet and when jQuery becomes popular the reason why I didn’t upgrade it was because I was lazy. As the saying goes, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”. Recently there is some buzz within the WordPress Development Team regarding WordPress’s JavaScript Usage. Andrew Ozz has written two articles on it in the WordPress Development Updates blog entitled Optimizing script loading, Optimizing script loading part 2 and Optimizing script loading, implementation. With the upcoming WordPress 2.8 will feature some heavy JavaScript changes, I told myself to make use of this chance to totally revamped the JavaScripts in my plugins. Here are the changes that will be made:

  • Minified JavaScript instead of packing them
  • Replaced TW-Sack with jQuery
  • Move JavaScript to the footer
  • Use wp_localize_script() for JavaScript text translation
  • javascript-js.js will now contain the minified code for normal usage
  • javascript-js.dev.js will now contain the unminified code for development purposes

I have already done it for WP-PostRatings and it is now running live on this site. Next, I will be doing WP-UserOnline, followed by WP-Email and lastly WP-Polls as it is more complex.

Lester Chan’s WordPress Plugins December 2008 Update

Posted by Lester Chan at 16:09 in WP-Ban, WP-CommentNavi, WP-DBManager, WP-DownloadManager, WP-EMail, WP-PageNavi, WP-PluginsUsed, WP-Polls, WP-PostRatings, WP-PostViews, WP-Print, WP-RelativeDate, WP-ServerInfo, WP-Stats, WP-Sticky, WP-UserOnline

Here is my December 2008 WordPress plugins update containing all my 15 WordPress plugins update and 1 new WordPress plugin. All of them should work on WordPress 2.7 as I did not test them on any WordPress version below that.

I am introducing a new plugin called WP-CommentNavi which basically paginate your comments similar to how WP-PageNavi paginate your posts. I am also retiring WP-Sticky as WordPress 2.7 has a sticky post feature built in. WP-Sticky 2.31 WILL NOT work on WordPress 2.7 due to a conflict function “is_sticky”. If you renamed that function to “is_sticky2″ or something else, it should work, but as usual I did not test it.

*UPDATE* Due to the large number of requests, I decided not to retire WP-Sticky and I have updated it to 1.40 and it is now compatible with WordPress 2.7.

Lester Chan’s WordPress Plugins July 2008 Update

Posted by Lester Chan at 22:50 in WP-Ban, WP-DBManager, WP-DownloadManager, WP-EMail, WP-PageNavi, WP-PluginsUsed, WP-Polls, WP-PostRatings, WP-PostViews, WP-Print, WP-RelativeDate, WP-ServerInfo, WP-Stats, WP-Sticky, WP-UserOnline

Here is my July 2008 WordPress plugins update containing all my 15 WordPress plugins. All of them should work on WordPress 2.5 as well as WordPress 2.6. It is not tested for any version below that.

In general, most of the updates are bug fixes. These updates in theory should be able to work till WordPress 2.7 when it comes out end of this year.

My new semester will begin on 2nd week August 2008, and hence I will be busy with my school work. So no updates to my plugins will be out till the end of this year unless it is a critical bug or a security issue.

WP-PostRatings 1.31 Beta 1

Posted by Lester Chan at 17:26 in Site, WP-PostRatings

WP-PostRatings is my only plugin left which still uses an external Javascript file in .php instead of .js.

Finally, I have gotten rid of .php and now the only two Javascript files in WP-PostRatings are in .js and best of all, they are packed using Dean Edward’s Packer. This will not only reduce the size of the Javascript file but also lessen the load on the server as .js files can be served as static files which requires no overhead in processing.

Changelog:

NEW: Renamed postratings-admin-js.php To postratings-admin-js.js and Move The Dynamic Javascript Variables To The PHP Pages
NEW: Renamed postratings-js.php To postratings-js.js and Move The Dynamic Javascript Variables To The PHP Pages
NEW: Uses postratings-js-packed.js And postratings-admin-js-packed.js

I need you guys to help me test WP-PostRatings 1.31 to ensure that it is working like normal as before.

Upgrading from WP-PostRatings 1.30 to WP-PostRatings 1.31 Beta 1 is very easy, just overwrite all the files will do. You do not need to run anything.

Thank You

  WP-PostRatings 1.50 Beta 1 (unknown, 9,532 hits)

PS: I have upgraded this site to WP-PostRatings 1.31 Beta 1, if there is any bug in the rating systems do let me know.

Lester Chan’s WordPress Plugins June 2008 Update (Wave 1)

Posted by Lester Chan at 01:46 in WP-EMail, WP-PageNavi, WP-PluginsUsed, WP-Polls, WP-PostRatings, WP-Print, WP-RelativeDate, WP-ServerInfo, WP-Stats, WP-Sticky, WP-UserOnline

Here is the first wave of my June 2008 plugins update containing 11 plugins. The remaining 4 plugins (WP-Ban, WP-DBManager, WP-DownloadManager and WP-PostViews) shall be in wave 2. All of them should work only on WordPress 2.5. It is not tested for any version below that.

The most general noticeable change would be the path to the plugin is now fixed. Previously it was nested in another folder and I got several hate mails because of that. Since the path problem has been solved, the Automatic Plugin Upgrade should work in theory.
