Woohoo! I have made a big update again and decided it was time to wrap things up regarding the ‘beta’ versions. Allthough Events is pretty stable since version 0.4 it still always was a 0.something version. Indicating an incomplete product.
This is over! After 3 years we have reached version 1.0! And im proud to announce this new version which brings some significant changes.
Changes for this version:
- [update] Completely redesigned manage page
- [change] %time% changed to %starttime%
- [new] End time for events
- [new] Sort order for manage page
- [new] New tags %endtime% and %duration% for the template
- [fix] Multiple minor bugfixes in showing data on the events page
- [fix] Uninstaller no longer uses die() but redirects to plugin page upon uninstalling
Also in order to upgrade to this version you need to edit the database. *eek!* yea… But no worries. I have an easy fix that too!
Go into your phpmyadmin, or whatever database tool you use, and run these 2 queries:
!!! MAKE A BACKUP IF UNSURE AND CHECK THE TABLE NAME !!!
ALTER TABLE `wp_events` ADD `theend` INT( 15 ) NOT NULL AFTER `thetime` ; UPDATE `wp_events` SET theend = thetime WHERE theend = '';
These queries are what i used to upgrade and are generated by phpmyadmin.
This effectively upgrades the Events table to allow ‘enddates’ to be set and sets all the existing events enddates (which do not exist) to the start date. If you don’t all start dates will equal 0 and thats way in the past on january 1 1970… We don’t want that now do we… So be sure to run both queries! BUT ONLY ONCE or other things go awe.
