Some more fixes to the code made it necessary for yet another release of Organize Series.  Incidentally - I noticed that Travis Snoozy made the announcement that he is no longer actively developing his “In-Series” plugin and will only be maintaining it until he can find someone to take over it’s development.  Working on Organize Series has made me painfully aware of just how much time and effort goes into developing these plugins and his work on In-Series certainly “prodded” my development of my own series plugin in some areas.  Thanks for your contributions to the WordPress community Travis!

Without further ado, here’s the changeset for version 2.0.7 of Organize Series (you can download this version by clicking here):

Minor Changes:

• Removal of extraneous html from series.php and seriestoc.php template files.
• Updated readme.txt for suggestion to copy customized series.php and seriestoc.php files to theme directory.
• Added missing < /div > to seriestoc.php file to fix “98%” of the typical default installations of this plugin.
• fixed a potential bug with the get_series_toc() function/template tag.
• Fixed a few spacing, code structure errors throughout the files.
• Changed the “title” attribute for the get_series_toc() link to something a bit more friendly.

Yet another catchup post for my Organize Series plugin. The current version of the plugin is 2.0.6 and you can download it via this link. Here’s the changesets:

2.0.6 - Fixes a pretty major bug with the custom rewrite/permalink structure for series archives. This bug only shows up if you use certain prefixes to your custom permalinks such as /archives/...rest of permalink. Hat tip to Edward for the catch and fix.

2.0.5 - Contains the following bug fixes:

• PHP error that was reported on the Manage Series page affecting certain installs.
• .rss validation warning for series archive feeds thanks to this post
• some typo fixes with readme.txt file
• updating readme.txt to reflect that Organize Series works with WordPress 2.5.1

Okay, I wasn’t going to post about the recent interview Matt Mullenweg did with Blogging Pro but there was an intriguing response to one of the questions asked that led me to leave a comment on Photomatt where Matt posted about his interview. The purpose of my comment was to try and tickle out more information - alas my comment was deleted for some reason and so I find myself writing this little blurb in my blog hoping (I’m not quite at begging yet hehe) that someone might have more information

UPDATE: Mysteriously my comment reappeared on Matt’s site…dunno what happened there hehe

Anyway, in the interview, Matt was asked,

What?s Automattic?s next move? I know you have been focusing on the next versions of WordPress, and your great Anti-spam service Akismet, but with the people in the Automattic now and your great eye for filling a gap in the marketplace, could you give out any hints on what we can expect next?

Tucked in his response was this reply…

We?ve got a few plugins and services we?ve cooked up internally that we?re going to provide to open source, including a little todo/project management app.
