Just a quick update to all you readers — Metlin.org has been upgraded to the latest WordPress 2.3 release. It needed a bit of work and was a bit of a pain, but in the end, everything seems to be working (so far!).
I had trouble getting the WYSIWYG editor up and running, but I finally succeeded in doing so. Along the way, I also discovered the Advanced TinyMCE Editor plugin that’s rather useful.
Outside of that, the website maybe a little flaky for the next week or so, while I iron out the bugs. So, please bear with me until then!
Ultimate Tag Warrior for WP 2.3
A small tip for those that use Christine’s awesome plugin Ultimate Tag Warrior — you will have trouble getting it working in this version because both the back-end DB structure and the way WP calls the DB have changed. The quick and dirty solution is to edit all the PHP files and do the following replacement –
cat_ID –> term_ID
categories –> terms
cat_name –> name
post2cat -> post2terms
So, I’m working on getting a version of UTW up and running that is compatible with WordPress 2.3.
Update 1: You can download the WP 2.3 compatible version of UTW. Please note that this is just a hack until Christine releases a compatible version.
Update 2: Okay, it turns out that for this version to work, you need to include the tags in both the WP and the UTW tags field.
This picture will probably explain it better. You would need to specify the tags in both the fields given in red.
