WordPress Plugins Updated

All the WordPress plugins have been tested with WordPress 4.3 and updated to reflect that fact. In additional to the testing I have also made a few other updates.

Backdrop

Updated the CSS/JS generator to be more reliable. It was already pretty solid, but I noticed that for whatever reason when I moved it to the new server it was erroring out. The changes should make it more resilient to random quirks like that.

Critique

If you have the overall average enabled it will not post microdata to the article. This data should get picked up by google giving your search result a nice star rating. I’ve checked it against the google microdata checker and it seems to be good, however it’s limited right now. The plan is to adjust it based on any feedback received so that it matches the real world use. If you have any suggestion feel free to send them my way.

The new plugins can be found on my WordPress.org plugins author page or, the plugin installer inside WordPress, or updated from within your installation if you have the installed already.

Server move and WP plugin updates

I’m in the process of moving site from an older server to a new one. The new one seems just as speedy as the old one, but it’s cheaper and actually up-to-date (no more 7 year old DB software)!

A new version of wordpress came out recently as well, and while the plugins seem more-or-less compatible (there might be a minor issue with backdrop), I’ll be going through them and at least updating their version compatibility notes later this week.

After that I may take a look at some of the other stuff I have on GitHub and update them (I know I have some changes for the DIR script, possibly some for Monkey). Then it’s back to never updating as usual (although I might be more included now that I don’t have to do stupid stuff to log in).

Auto SEO updated – first WP plugin with a translation.

I updated Auto SEO to version 2.3.3 today. There are no new features in this version except for a translation into Spanish by Andrew Kurtis of WebHostingHub. This is the first WordPress plugin I have made that has been translated.  I’d like to thank Andrew for taking the time to not only translate the plugin for submitting the translation to be included in future releases.

If you want like to translate this or any other of the plugins into another language just let me know. My other plugins are some translation support, and I can finish that off if there is another language you would like them to support.
