The Simply Show IDs WordPress plugin has been updated to version 1.2. New to this version is support for WordPress 2.8 which includes listing of category, tag and user IDs. See the change log for all changes. Enjoy!

Michael J. I. Jackson has just recently released Shadwobox 3.0 beta. I have undertaken a huge rewrite of the plugin to both accommodate Shadowbox 3.0 and to make the plugin better overall. The rewrite is nearly complete and already in place on this site. There are many improvements and new features on their way with this new version so please stay tuned. One thing to make special note of, is that this plugin will drop PHP4 support and require PHP5.

With the release of Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 and the high number of questions I have been fielding about Shadowbox.js not working under the newly released IE8; I figured I would work on a hack that would allow the Shadowbox JS plugin to work with IE8 until Michael J. I. Jackson releases a version that natively supports IE8. I intend on releasing an update to the Shadowbox JS plugin soon to include IE8 support. Stay tuned for the release.

The Shadowbox JS WordPress plugin has been updated to version 2.0.4.1. New to this version is Internet Explorer 8 support by way of the X-UA-Compatible meta tag. This hack is disabled by default because…well…it is a hack. To enable IE8 support visit the Shadowbox JS settings page in the WordPress admin and set ‘Internet Explorer 8 Hack’ to ‘true’. Enjoy!

The Shadowbox JS WordPress Plugin has been updated to version 2.0.4.0. More big changes in this version. Now using domready events for all javascript libraries other than ‘None’ for initialization of Shadowbox.js before the site is completely loaded, support for custom shadowbox.js skins by use of a filter and numerous other changes. Check the change log at the link provided. Enjoy!

The Page Restrict WordPress Plugin has been updated to version 1.6. New to this update is a meta box for easy restriction on the write/edit page pages, restrict viewing comments on restricted pages and restrict page content in search results. Enjoy!

Around 10PM EST last night (March 11, 2009) the server that hosts all of the sivel.net domains and FreeMyFeed went off line due to reasons unknown at this time. As of 8:40AM EST today (March 12, 2009) all sites and services are back up and running. Apologies for the down time.

The Public Post Preview WordPress Plugin has been updated to version 1.1. New to this update is not limiting public previews to posts in draft or pending status. The plugin now allows public previews of any post that is not in ‘publish’ status. Enjoy!
