Plugins Compatible With WP 2.3

I have updated this site to WordPress 2.3 Beta 1 as well as ALL my plugins to be compatible with WordPress 2.3. All the plugins are running live on this site. If you find any bugs, kindly do let me know by posting it in the forum.

I will be releasing the updated plugins (except WP-WAP and WP-ServerInfo) after WordPress 2.3 is officially released.

After doing some reviewing, most of my plugins will be able to work on WP 2.1 and above (including WP 2.3) except for WP-Stats 2.20 where you need to have at least WP 2.3.

All the plugins version listed below is the upcoming version and NOT the current version (except for WP-Stats 2.11).

Plugins that will work for 2.1.x and above (including WP 2.3)

  • WP-Ban 1.20
  • WP-DBManager 2.20
  • WP-PageNavi 2.20
  • WP-PluginsUsed 1.00
  • WP-RelativeDate 1.20
  • WP-ServerInfo 1.00
  • WP-WP-WAP 2.10

Plugins that will work for 2.1.x and above (including WP 2.3) 1 BUT will break WP-Stats 2.11

  • WP-DownloadManager 1.00
  • WP-Polls 2.21
  • WP-PostRatings 1.20
  • WP-PostViews 1.20
  • WP-Sticky 1.10
  • WP-Useronline 2.20

1 As the whole structure of WP-Stats had changed, any plugin version prior to the individual version stated above will break WP-Stats 2.11. The only solution to this, is to upgrade WordPress to 2.3, WP-Stats to 2.20 and the respective plugins to the version stated above. If you are not using WP-Stats, you can just ignore this.

Plugins that will work for 2.3 Only

  • WP-EMail 2.20
  • WP-Print 2.20
  • WP-Stats 2.20

WordPress App For iPhone/iPod Touch

WordPress App for iPhone and iPod Touch has been officially release. At the moment, it is only available in the US iTunes Store, give it some time for it to propagate to the rest of the iTunes stores.

It is a free app and I recommend everyone who is using WordPress and has a iPhone or iPod Touch to get it.

Here is what it does (taken from Weblog Tools Collection):

  • Support for WP.com blogs and self-installed blogs version 2.5.1 and higher
  • Embedded Safari for true previews of posts
  • Full tag and category support
  • Photo support for both camera pictures as well as library photos
  • Support for multiple blogs
  • Ability to password protect a post, save as a draft, or mark the post for later review
  • Auto-recovery. This will recover posts which have been interrupted by phone calls

Check out WordPress for iPhone or you can view/download the app in iTunes Store.

WordPress 2.3.2

WordPress 2.3.2 has been released and this release includes a number of changes including one security fix.

  • Performance improvements for post sanitization when raw content is required.
  • Changes to is_admin() to ensure that it is only true for admin pages thereby protecting against exposing draft posts.
  • Suppression of database errors unless WP_DEBUG is true.
  • Check for valid database connection information during install and display and error if the install fails due to database rights.
  • Support for a custom database down page to be displayed on database connection errors.
  • Changes to make sure we are more selective in what we make clickable, this introduces different rules for different uri types.
  • Changes to wp-mail.php to escape the error messages when displaying them to avoid a possible XSS attack.
  • Changes to ensure that the post password is only exposed by the xmlrpc method metaWeblog.getRecentPosts to users with rights to edit a post.
  • Changes to the information exposed the wp.getAuthors xmlrpc method to reduce the information exposed and add a capabilites check.
  • Addition of extra capabilites checks to xmlrpc methods.
  • Addition of extra capabilites checks to APP server.
  • Changes to validate_file() to improve its traversal attempt detection when running on windows.
