Pictorialis Issues

I wrote Pictorialis because I had a need. I never quite realized just how popular or how important it would become. Is there really a lot of interest in this product? Should I consider versions and upgrades and actually following the support fora? I am afraid that if I dedicate all my time to Pictorialis, everything else will get sidelined (which is fine if there is a need). Here are my future plans for Pictorialis and the support offerings for it. Once WordPress 1.3 is released, move over the existing code to the new version Seperate “PhotoBlog” and “PhotoAlbum” as two seperate versions of the same Pictorialis. I believe that if they overlap, usability and technical granularity suffers Try to obtain a list of defects with present versions (not bugs, but defects in the methodology) and then incorporate them in the new version In the “PhotoAlbum” version, add more album-like […]

IMAP support for PHP and goofy errors

I scratched my head over this for a couple of hours and hope that someone else can benefit from my sore scalp! Imap mail functions for PHP are very easy to use and are quite quick. They can even be used for normal POP3 connections without certain IMAP functions. I have used them exclusively in a lot of my email scripts. However, almost every installation is different. If you are using imap_open function to open your mailbox, various servers will have different headaches with the function. The one surefire way to get around those headaches (when opening POP3 mailboxes) is to use the code below with your modifications. Basically, you have to specifically request a non-SSL connection everytime or your script MIGHT bork. Also, specifying INBOX saves headaches in many cases. $mbox = imap_open( “{yourmailserver.com/pop3:110/notls}INBOX”, “username”, “password” );

I guess I shouldn’t have been in such a big hurry to post about WPBlacklist 2.01 in the previous post because 2.5 is ready and has been just released :p The new release adds automatic deletion of comments marked as spam and allows you to select which items are automatically deleted. Not only that, if you select the option, the new plugin will also e-mail you with full details of the automatically deleted comments. A full description of the new features can be read in this blog entry and you can download the new release from here. If you install the new release, be sure to read the included readme.txt file to find out how to upgrade or at least run the Installer link under the plugin description on the Plugins tab of your WP control panel after you install the plugin. The installer has to be run even for […]
