PodPress 8.8.1 has been released. According to the PodPress listing in the WordPress plugin directory, version 8.8.1 is a maintenance release to make podPress compatible with the post revisions feature introduced in WordPress 2.6.
Enhancing the WordPress experience
It’s time to start looking at feature enhancements for a number of WordPress sites I run.
To date I’ve been happy with the plugins I use, which include:
I’ve been thinking about adding a captcha plugin to my one of my sites. John Wiseman suggested wp-ReCAPTCHA, though I wasn’t convinced that he’s crazy about the idea of adding captcha functionality.
Rob Blatt insisted that Meet your Commenters is a must have. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work with WP2.7, yet.
Which WP plugins are your favourites, must-haves and stay-away-froms?
PodPress is STILL a going concern
I’ve been one of the many voices expressing concern about the longevity of the PodPress, the incredible podcasting plugin many of us WordPress users have adopted because of its powerful features and ease of use.
It’s been easy to worry about the plugin. Some time has past since the last update (code or even news of plans), and, more obviously, the disappearance of the support forums following a SPAM attack.
I spoke with PodPress creator Dan Kuykendall, yesterday. Dan has been busy with work and his new dual-role as both a techie and CEO and hasn’t been able to attend to PodPress on a day-to-day basis. He did say that he’s working on a new release and expects to put some time into the coding during the holidays later this month.
So, if you’re a PodPress user, hang in there!
