My Plugins Compatibility With WordPress 2.5

Below is a list of my plugins in development that WILL work with WordPress 2.5. The reason why I consolidated it here is because the current version of the listed plugins does not work properly with WordPress 2.5.

For the remaining plugins, see also Lester Chan’s WordPress Plugins June 2008 Update (Wave 1).

Gengo Compatibility

“Plugins must call load_plugin_textdomain inside a function that runs on the ‘init’ hook, or at the earliest, the ‘plugins_loaded’ hook.” That is what being stated in Genko Compatibility Page. I have since updated all my plugins to solve that compatibility issue. Hopefully it will not break anything.

WP-Print And WP-EMail On WP 2.3

Someone reported to me that WP-Email is not working on this site, and after some checking, I also found out that WP-Print is also not working due to the extra / that WordPress generates for wp-print and wp-email permalink structure in WP 2.3.

WP-EMail has another problem which took me 4 hours just go pin-point it. Apparently when it includes wp-email.php and in wp-email.php there is a add_filter(‘the_title’) which hooks onto the title filter. For some reasons, the core WordPress function get_the_title() is casing the server to throw an error. In order to bypass it I have to create a new function to emulate something like the get_the_title() function.

I have since fixed all the bugs that I mentioned above and now WP-Print and WP-EMail will only work for WP2.3 and nothing below it. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

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
