AWPCP Now Supports WP 3.0 + Category Ordering

After extensive testing, I can confidently say that there are no major issues with WP 3.0 and AWPCP.  While working on this testing effort, I also ran into an unrelated issue with an up-and-coming plugin:  Simple Facebook Connect by Otto.  My plugin was out of compliance on standard WordPress shortcode usage and users of SFC were running into weird header issues with AWPCP.

Those header inclusion issues are now completely fixed and I am happy to say that AWPCP now complies with the shortcode API per WordPress standards.

In addition, due to popular request, I’ve added the ability to change the ordering of your categories.  Now you’re not limited to alphabetic order.  Check out Settings -> Categories for the gory details and enjoy!

Other bug fixes:  You no longer see \\\\\’ for embedded quotes in posts (title, description, etc), fixed an issue with image uploading where the upload directory didn’t exist.

Please upgrade to 1.0.6.12 to get these fixes. Also, there is a NEW translation file available for this version as I had to reorganize the plugin’s structure to accommodate this fix.

As usual, please sound out in the AWPCP Support Forum if you run into any problems or have suggestions for future enhancements!

Also fixed in 1.0.6.12:

  • Category creation/deletion problem from admin panel
  • Admin can now edit ads again
  • WP 3.0 fresh installations caused MySQL error during install
