Hello everybody, long time no post. The website is currently in a state of flux, I’d been having some weird server issues, so I backed things up and rebuilt the server. Unfortunately, when I recovered, somehow the DB only went back to around March of 2012. The upside is that I don’t think I’d posted …

The future of WP-Slimbox2
I’d like to think that since its inception WP-Slimbox2 has come a long way and that there’s not really much further to go. Having said that, I can think of a few changes that can still improve the plugins functionality over all. One of the first things I’m looking to do is to utilize the …

WP-Slimbox v1.1.1 Release (also v1.1, v1.0.3.4, & v1.0.3.3)
This post is extremely late in coming (v1.1.1 was released several days back, and before that I released v1.1 shortly after the release of v1.0.3.4, and even further back we had the release of v1.0.3.3), but I am proud to announce the release of of WP-Slimbox2 v1.1.1. The biggest change between versions was, obviously, from …

General News
Back in July I switched webhosts, from Hostpapa to Linode. For the most part I’d say the transition was for the best, though I am now paying more money, I’m also granted almost total control over the host environment, which is a two-edged sword. The biggest downside to the transition was that a number of …

WP-Slimbox2 Upcoming Release
I’ve been rather sick during the past year, which has put a damper on WP-Slimbox2 development, but I’m pleased to say that I have been working on it, and will hopefully have an updated release soon. In addition to officially indicating support for the latest versions of WordPress (as you can see on this site, …

WP-Slimbox2 in Português Brasileiro
Once again I am both humbled by and in awe of the efforts made by others to expand access to WP-Slimbox2. This time, thanks to the efforts of Marcelo (from Techload Informatica), I present to you the Brazilian Portuguese (Português Brasileiro) translation of WP-Slimbox2. Currently only the text has been translated, the buttons appear to …

Contribution to Google News Widget (& Shortcode) Plugin for WordPress
I’d been looking for a good plugin to feed local news to my condo’s website and wasn’t really finding any that seemed to be doing the trick for me, but then I stumbled on Stefania Marchisio’s Google News Widget (& Shortcode) Plugin for WordPress. It looked pretty good, but unfortunately the built in options, while …

WP-Slimbox2 v1.0.3.2 (and v1.0.3.1) Released
So I had to release extremely two minor bug fixes (seems like that’s what usually happens). Apparently I’d never committed the changes I’d made to handle the updated RTL localization support in the index.php file, so release v1.0.3.1 remedied that. Then, after I had reports from two people who apparently had some minor issues with …

WP-Slimbox2 v1.0.3 Released!
I’ve been sitting on a number of localizations that have been coming in ever since the previous release. I’d been holding off on an update since I’d hoped to get all the current localizations updated, rather than having several minor releases in a short period of time that only updated localizations. Unfortunately, nv1962, who graciously …

Official Logo, Site Redesign
If you’ve been to the site before, you’ve likely noticed we’ve got a new banner, and a new logo! We’d originally intended to have them be one and the same, but the best looking logo turned out a bit more square, which doesn’t really work so well as a banner. Luckily, some of the earlier …
