I’ve just released Contextual Related Posts v2.5.0 and existing users can update the plugin as usual from within their WordPress install. This release adds a few minor features as well as a few bug fixes that were reported by users. Disable on AMP pages and mobile devices One feature requested by a lot of users is to disable the related posts display on mobile devices and AMP pages. With the inbuilt cache, the display of the related posts is super fast. However, you do need to write some custom styles in order to make the display work on both mobile and AMP pages particularly because of the screen size. As a…

Top 10 v2.5.6
I’ve released Top 10 v2.5.6 which adds a new tool under the Top 10 > Tools page which allows you to recreate the PRIMARY KEY in the tables. This provides a much needed fix to a bug in 2.5.5 where the primary key got lost in several installs likely because the dbDelta function didn’t work as intended. This follows two bug fix releases over the past several weeks particularly around compatibility with the Settings API that was introduced in Top 10 v2.5 where things didn’t work properly in some installs. Detailed changelog in v2.5.6 2.5.6 Features: Added new button under Tools to recreate the PRIMARY KEYs 2.5.5 Bug fixes: Fixed…

Contextual Related Posts v2.4.1
I pushed through Contextual Related Posts v2.4.0 to the WordPress.org repository today (Update: 2.4.1 has been released to fix a few bugs). This version adds some much asked features including randomising the related posts and also limiting them to the same post type. You can find both options under “List Tuning” in your settings page. Randomising related posts has been a much requested feature by many users. The challenge with randomising the related posts with mySQL is primarily performance along with many unrelated posts getting priority. In this version, the related posts are first fetched based on the limit that you specify e.g. 6 posts based on the screenshot below.…

Knowledgebase v1.3.0
This was originally posted on the WebberZone blog. A few days back I pushed through an update of Knowledgebase v1.3.0. Knowledgebase is my relatively new plugin that I released last year when building WebberZone. It’s designed to be very simple to use to set up your own Knowledgebase. The latest release incorporates a very important uninstall feature. You can now choose to delete options when you uninstall the plugin and/or delete all knowledgebase data. This is if you want to completely clean out all articles as well as sections and categories, you’d select the section option. This does effectively mean that you’re nuking your knowledgebase and can only be restored if…

Add to All v1.2.0
After more than two years, I decided it was high time to rework my plugin Add to All in order to bring it more compatible with the latest versions of WordPress. And, to also bring it out of an “abandoned” status. The biggest change in this version is migrating the settings to the WordPress Settings API. It also brings a brand new tabbed interface for each of the settings. When you upgrade, please do visit the settings page and check that all your settings are properly migrated. As usual, if you’re looking for support, create a new ticket in the Support forums. Detailed changes in Add to All v1.2.0 Features: Settings…
