AWSOM News Announcement 1.5.1 now available

The AWSOM News Announcement Plugin for WordPress has been updated to version 1.5.1 and is now available for download at the AWSOM.org website. This version fixes a major bug which prevented brand new installs of the plugin from creating the proper database tables needed for the plugin (Doh!). Grab it or do the auto-update to get the correct version of the plugin. If you tried to install the 1.5.0 version, deactivate the Plugin first, then reactivate it to create the database tables.

AWSOM News Announcement Plugin Updated to Version 1.5.0

Hi Everyone, The AWSOM News Announcement Plugin for WordPress has been updated to version 1.5.0 and is available for immediate download from the AWSOM.org website. This new version now has support for date based display of News posts (so only have the post display during certain dates, or starting until/after a certain date) as well as display tracking of posts (So you can see how many times a post has been viewed–great for when you set posts to be displayed only for certain groups of users). One other important update is the change of the Plugin folder to be compatible with the WordPress auto-update/installer function–So if you already have the plugin installed please note that you will need to remove the older folder called awsomnews and replace it with the new folder called awsom-news-announcement.

Pixgallery 4.5.7 released, finally :)

Hey everyone, AWSOM Pixgallery version 4.5.7 is now officially and finally released. This version has a few bug fixes and now supports WordPress 2.7. A notable change to all versions of the plugin is the location of the Gallery management area–> it is now located under the “Design” or “Appearance” tab of the WordPress admin area. This is not something I really wanted to do, but the changes in 2.7 forced me to relocate the page and this was the best option.

One very nice thing is the “Individual Comment System” works perfectly with the new Nested Comment system in 2.7, so now all of your galleries and images can have lively conversations going that only show up for that image or gallery.

Anyway, grab the new version and as usual please let me know if you have any issues.

AWSOM NEWS Yet again updated, now 1.4.7

Hey everyone. I have yet again updated the AWSOM News Announcement plugin, this time with backward compatibility! Yes, now anyone can use the plugin on any version of WordPress again. (let’s call this edition the “I’m dumb and need to test older versions edition” of the plugin. anyway, 1.4.7 is now available for download so for anyone using WordPress 2.6.5 and older you can download the now functional version at AWSOM.org to get you back up and running. Sorry for that :)

AWSOM News Announcement updated to 1.4.6, WordPress 2.7 compatible

Hi Everyone, I’ve just updated the AWSOM News Announcement plugin to be WordPress 2.7 compatible. Please replace your current Plugin Files with the new version available from the AWSOM.org website. The biggest change is the new location for Managing your News Announcements–this is now under the “Posts” section of the Admin menu. This is now true for all versions of WordPress.

Please let me know if you run into any problems with the Plugin for any version of WordPress.
