Why Premium Support?
There a hundreds and even thousands plugins for WordPress available for free, and that’s one of the truly great things about WordPress. But, only a fraction of that number is actually supported by the authors. And there is a good reason why is that.
New Dev4Press is now online
Few hours ago, new Dev4Press website has gone live. Fully redesigned and oriented to premium content that includes plugins (and soon themes) and premium support. So, read this to find out more on what new website will offer and help you in improving your WordPress blogs.
Next plugin milestone
At this moment I can confirm that GD Star Rating 1.7.0 will be released on Sunday, October 11 2009. There are many changes in this release, bug fixes, code refactoring, several new things including more filters to control plugin rendering.
Are support rules so hard to follow?
Way back in april, plugin was used on some 4.000 blogs, but now that number is close to 20.000. And that caused the increase of users that are misusing my free time and FREE support, and they still fail to follow few simple support rules.
GD Star Rating 1.6.6
Still lacking free time for new plugin features, but still enough time to improve existing features, plugin speed up and optimizations. This time changes are in installation, plugin loading, database tables collation and lower memory usage.
GD Star Rating 1.6.4
Another week and another version of GD Star Rating. Again, mostly updates and fixes, but this time there are few new things added. Unfortunately, I still have very little free time, so development of this plugin will be slow for the next few weeks.
Review themes anyone?
Now that GD Star Rating implements so many different types of ratings, it’s time to get some real review/rating oriented themes with GD Star Rating integrated and new stars and thumbs designed. And I have planned to try and make that happen.
GD Star Rating 1.6.2
New week and new release of GD Star Rating. Several reported bugs are fixed, and many things are updated, tweaked and improved. T2 templates panel is now much better and has few new features, and I have added new panel called My Ratings.
GD Star Rating 1.4.0
Plugin has reached yet another major release in the short period. Last week was used mostly for testing but there are some new features added after the beta release. I will try to cover all changes from last official release and few more things.
Support Changes
Well, plugin has grown significantly over the past 6 months, and same goes for the number of blogs that use it. And, providing support is still taking a lot of my free time. A free time I don’t have. So things will change.
