An Update on the Next Version

First off, I’m going to change the version number to 2.6. While this coming update is a mile-stone update, I don’t think the new features warrant skipping the version number ahead by .4 points. So, the next release is Manga+Press 2.6 and not 2.9—nothing else is changing; just the version number. Unfortunately, I haven’t updated the beta version to match the change in version numbers. Anyway, I should have it out by January 15th, primarily because I wish to do some testing with Wordpress 2.9 to be sure that the new version of Manga+Press is compatible with WordPress 2.9. For now, you can download a beta of Manga+Press 2.9 [here].

Beta Release: Manga+Press 2.9

Yes, this was supposed to be last night but life happened :\ So, here it is: Manga+Press 2.9 beta. Download, enjoy and install at your risk :D I do have 2.9b running both here and on my comic website and I’m not seeing any problems like the ones I discovered after the official release of Manga+Press 2.5. The features that should have made 2.5 a milestone release (which subsequently had to be disabled) are working with no foreseeable problems in 2.9. Read moar »

MUST READ: Manga+Press 2.5 Bugs and Issues

Well, this just made my day. I’ve discovered a few bugs/issues with Manga+Press 2.5 that I think people should be aware of. Please note that I am not absolutely sure of the severity of these bugs because I have one installation where they’re not appearing and another installation where they are appearing. Since the two installations in question are my webcomic site and the demo (this site), it could be a problem with having two Wordpress installations under the same domain name, since the demo is a sub-domain of my webcomic site. Anyway, the bugs and the steps taken to fix them are listed below: Read moar »

Manga+Press 2.9 beta

Considering some of the issues I’ve had with Manga+Press 2.5—or rather how they seemingly cropped up after I submitted the completed version to the Wordpress plugin repository, I’ve decided that this time around the first release of Manga+Press 2.9 will be a beta. I plan on having it packaged as a zip and ready to download by Saturday evening if anyone is interested in testing it out. I will say that 2.9 is the version that 2.5 should have been. This version features automatic formatting of both the Latest Comic and Archive Page, but also the ability to turn the feature off and customize your own Latest and Archive pages.

Coming up: Manga+Press 2.9!

Yeah, you’re reading that title right—I said Manga+Press 2.9. The thing is, it probably won’t be out until November or December because I’m in the process of making some major changes to both the interface and the code. For one, I found a few new (better) ways of doing things—like handling options, for instance but it’s requiring a rewrite of the code—which is why I’ve jumped the version number up! Anyway, if you’re curious about the cosmetic changes that I’ve made, please Read moar »
