WordPress 2.9.1 Updates…

Posted on January 5, 2010 by Ryan Street

Well, just a week or two after 2.9 is release, wordpress is at it again.  2.9.1 is here and we are all having to update again.  If you were wondering what minute and trivial processes were addressed in 2.9.1, here they are:

What was changed in 2.9.1

  • Update-core.php small validation fix
  • Rotate counter-clockwise tooltip in “Edit Media” is spelt incorrectly
  • Lack of escaping in _wp_comment_row()
  • curl_setopt() In Feed Options?
  • Some buttons have gone square in 2.9
  • sanitize_user_object() throws fatal error on user property objects
  • Fatal error: Call to undefined method WP_Error::__destruct()
  • Plugin Compatibility Fails to Consider Future RC Versions
  • sanitize_text_field() issue with UTF-8 characters
  • Rotate image buttons don’t show up on PHP installs without imagerotate()
  • Warning: Cannot modify header information… in class-json.php
  • Increase download timeout
  • timezone reset
  • Code editor bug in Safari
  • parts of metadata API fail on user metadata
  • update-core.php doesn’t remove the upgrade files if the upgrade fails due to too old of a PHP or MySQL version
  • Upgrades Fail Because of [11883]
  • warning on line 790 of wp-includes/rewrite.php
  • upgrade.php dies hard on MySQL < 4.1.0
  • could not be converted to UTF-8 / WordPress should cache failed feed fetches so as to avoid overloading feed sources
  • cron stopped working with standard configuration
  • ‘$wpdb’ typo in wp-admin/maint/repair.php causing table prefix not to appear
  • Upload Handling. Use is_numeric instead of ctype_digit.
  • Need confirmation/undo/something for media delete

What does this mean?  Let’s break it down…

All in one WordPress Marketing Plugin Coming

Posted on September 7, 2009 by Ryan Street

I found a BIG problem with trying to add testimonial boxes, opt-in forms, sales copy, etc.., in Wordpress posts and pages.

This is not only an issue I have but one that Wordpress users complain often about.

What is it?

You can never get your sales pages and squeeze pages to look the way you want because Wordpress rips out your HTML formatting and does its own thing! Don’t get me wrong I love Wordpress but also love being in control over exactly how these pages look.

Well I’ve created the ultimate solution and when it’s released, it’s going to make life a whole lot easier on marketers using Wordpress for sales letters and squeeze pages.
