WP-United v0.8.8.7 released!

Filed under: Release Announcements — Jhong at 12:05 am on Tuesday, February 13, 2007

Changes in this release:

  • FIXED: WP-United Connection now installs properly when PHP is running under IIS
  • Better and more reliable handling of embedded RSS feeds in an integrated page
  • Better auto-setting of page basename
  • FIXED: Trailing slash after blog.php no longer causes a 404 error when permalinks are turned on
  • Improved detection of WordPress styles and scripts that need to be included in an integrated page
  • Superfluous full-stop removed from mod file (thanks Georgie!)

I recommend that anyone running WP-United upgrade. If you;re runnng v0.8.8.x, the process is simple, just copy over the new files.

There is also one minor change in the mod file to overall_header.tpl (change {WP_STYLES} to {WP_HEAD} ), but this change will not become necessary until v0.9.x - both are currently supported.

Hopefully this will be the last of the bugs cleared up in advance of the v0.8.9 release, which will have many new features!

You can download WP-United v0.8.8.7 on the Download Page.

Happy Community Blogging!
