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

Plugins Updated For WordPress 2.1

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.
