ComicPress Manager 0.9 Released!

This one was a big one.  Lots of big internal changes that improved performance, safety, and usability.  Among the changes:

  • Big Bug Fix: the plugin now only loads the editor widget JavaScript while in the ComicPress Manager plugin. This was a problem for folks like myself who put their wp-admin folder behind HTTP authentication. IF you were running an older version of the plugin, this particular upgrade is very important , as it saves on bandwidth and improves security for your site.
  • Now supports moving the WordPress folder to a different location on the server (see http://www.lunchboxfunnies.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=5889#5889 ). This requires that your comics folders be at in the same directory as the index.php file that you moved out of the wordpress directory.
  • Improved config editor with more intuitive choices and more robust file writing (thanks to feedback from Sunday Funnies podcast #10 )
  • Prepare ComicPress Manager for internationalization . If any one wants to offer to help translate CPM into another language, let me know.
  • Improved comicpress-config.php write permission detection
  • Improved config checks
  • The ability to disable config checks for improved performance if you know your site is set up correctly
  • The ability to upload any file to replace an existing comic
  • Big UI improvements

Download the plugin and give it a span.  I’ve started tagging the old releases, so if you have a problem, roll back to 0.8 and post a message on the thread on the Lunchbox Funnies forum .  Also, I’m looking for translators!  If you have time, use the POT file in the plugin archive and send me a translation.

More comics and stuff, this a-way...
