Things to come
By the end of the month I plan to get a new wave of updated versions of all my plugins out. The update will just be refined code, and the usage of jQuery instead of Scriptaculous. Here are some more detailed things to come.
Gallery Plugin:
The new release is codenamed “Horizon” and feature list includes:
1) Themes will be (downloadable) extensions
2) Security, it will now work with the b2evo database for permissions
3) Galleries and Images are now separate (So galleries can now have titles and descriptions)
4) A all new and improved manager, using the jQuery library. (and hopefully drag n’ drop for images to order them!)
5) Individual settings for each image size type (small medium large) and the option to use a image size or not.
6) Better installation experience
7) Better error reporting
8) Better integration with b2evolution
9) A Gallery Manager! (So that you can view all your galleries!)
10) Upgrade support for the 1.2.5 releases.
11) Support for any GD2 supported image type (not just jpeg!)
12) Multi-Lingual
13) Plugins…
14) A wordpress plugin
Avatars Plugin:
The new version will be refined to conform with the latest updates, and will feature:
1) Skin Selection for Avatars (So Avatars can be unique to skins).
There are a few new plugins that I want to do, but I will save that for later.
