New update for Post Scheduler plugin!

I’m happy to announce that now Post Scheduler plugin also delay the delivery notifications of New Discussions to the scheduled date and time. It wasn’t easy to implement such feature on both Vanilla 2.0 and 2.1b, as none of them are designed to allow stopping a notification before it’s sent, but it’s now done.

How to upgrade

To get the latest version, simply use the links you received when you purchased the plugin. Please note that the new version requires the Cron Jobs Plugin, available free of charge, and the configuration of a Cron Job to deliver the scheduled notifications.

Before you install the new version, please make sure you read the instructions contained in the readme.html file included in the zip file.

Important

Due to recent developments, price of Post Scheduler and other plugins is due to increase from the 11th of March, 2013. If you are interested in any of them, make sure you get them before the price go up!

Acknowledgements

I would like to thank Mrs Taylor of KHT Montessori for providing the feedback that led to the development of this new feature.

Post Scheduler and Hot Threads Plugins for Vanilla 2.0/2.1 are now available

It was a busy week, and I’m happy to announce that two new plugins for Vanilla Forums are now available. Post Scheduler allows you to publish a Post (Discussion) at a later time, thus freeing you from the burden of getting up at ungodly hours to send a message to your community, while Hot Threads displays a list of the Discussions which have received the highest amount of Comments and/or visits.

Also, to celebrate my anniversary in Vanilla Community, you can get 10% discount by using the coupon code VanYear-13 (valid until 15/03/2013).

Enjoy!

Announcement – Vanilla Plugins have been updated

Plugins LoginGuard and Advanced Logger for Vanilla Forums 2.0 have been updated today. The new versions fix some minor bugs, and increase compatibility with PHP Environments where Error Reporting is set to display Notice  messages.

What are Notice messages?

Notice messages are minor notifications. They are usually ignored by default in PHP configuration as, even if they are raised, the reason behind them is unimportant and, therefore, can be ignored. However, if Error Reporting is set to display them, some Plugin pages might not open, as Vanilla would treat them as errors and interrupt the execution. If you need to have Notices enabled in your environment configuration, please make sure that you have the latest version of the Plugins.
