Site changes a plenty

I’ve gone ahead and update the site starting with a new theme. This time it’s the current twenty-seventeen theme with a couple tweaks like sidebars on pages. I have also removed a bunch of the old examples as they were not getting much in the way of legitimate use, if you would like to see one leave a comment on the article and I can re-upload it.

Auto SEO 2.5.5

I have updated Auto SEO to support a few new keywords including categories and tags for that post. It’s been up on the repository for a few days now so you probably already have the update waiting on your site. Overall it’s a pretty minor update but the functionality can be more easily expanded so if there is another keyword you think would be useful let me know.

Gamepedia Viewer Version 3

After some on-again-off-again development I have finally released version 3 of the Gamepedia Viewer. This newest version uses react to build the user interface and syncs with Dropbox via the API. This means  there is no more server side component and you no longer need to fork a copy of the repository in order to use the viewer, simply point your browser here: https://pgooch.github.io/GamepediaViewer/ and your’ll set.

Of course if you do not have your database synced with Dropbox you can still fork the repository and use a static file for the database. Details on how to do that are in the readme in the Gamepedia Viewer GitHub Repository.

Now back to our regularly scheduled lack of updates.

Annual WordPress plugin update.

Generally I don’t bother updating my WordPress plugins if all it’s for is to note that it works with the latest version of WordPress but today someone had an issue with the AutoSEO plugin not working as intended on older versions of PHP so I figured I’d run through the all, get them all listed as working on the newest version of WordPress (4.6 Pepper at time of writing). Most everything was still working as intended and only two plugins got any real changes today.

Auto SEO

Auto SEO version 2.3.4 is a compatibility update to support older PHP as mentioned above. I haven’t tested in on a pre 5.4 PHP server because I don’t have one, but it was a simple issue and I don’t expect there to be any further trouble (and if there is it’ll receive another update for that).

Github Repo List

Github Repo List version 1.2.2 fixes an issue that would prevent it form loading the list on a non-secure site, as well as adds a better error message if you type on an invalid username.

And that all for today. I would like to take some of the plugins I’ve created for work and release them into the repository as well, but I’m going to have to figure out who I need approval from and then get it. I don’t know if it’ll happen but if I can get it worked out I have at least one more plugin to release.
