New Blog!

Posted by Ben in Website. Tagged: , .

It was about time that the Author Avatars List plugin got its own “website”… (Up until yesterday it has only lived in the Plugin Directory).

This blog is going to be the central place for development updates and plugin documentation.

The next few things that I am going to do are…

  1. move existing documentation like the developer docs and shortcode info to this blog (done!)
  2. create a list of suggested features from emails and forum topics (done!)

I hope this is going to be useful and I am looking forward to reading some comments… :-)

Author Avatars List 0.7.4

Posted by Ben in Releases. Tagged: , , , .

I’ve just released version 0.7.4 of the Author Avatars List plugin.

Changes in this version:

  • Fixed javascript issues with widget settings page and shortcode wizard in WordPress 2.8
  • Fixed support for translations
  • Added German translation
  • Added feature to sort by recent user activity (requires Buddypress)

I have also moved the Changelog from my codex user-page to the plugin’s readme.txt following the new recommendation to add changelogs to readme files. This gives the plugin a new “Changelog” tab on the plugin page and it allows for example the excellent Changelogger Plugin to do its magic.

You can download the new version as usual from the from the wordpress plugin repository or of course simply install it using WordPress’ plugin update feature.
