[Plugin: User-Cats Manager] Problem with category pages (10 posts)

    This is an awesome plugin and its really all I need for my blog. Unfortunately there is a terrible bug in it. Once you activate the plugin it will restrict access to category pages giving visitors that are not logged in a 404 error page and that makes the plugin pretty much unusable for me. :(

    I've contacted the plugin author and he said he has no plans to continue the develpment of this plugin. I am willing to pay $50 via paypal to anyone who can fix this bug. I really want this plugin to work.

    I second that. I'll add another $50 via paypal on top of WEB11 to anyone who can fix this bug.

    Hmmm, I've just started playing around with this plugin. I was very very happy with it indeed until I had some trouble editing posts with a author-level account. I started looking around for a workaround as I figured this broke with the new WP version (2.7). I hadn't even noticed the gaping 404 error problem until I stumbled on this thread.

    I have already been poking around in the php file for this plugin to fix the grammatical errors (as this will be used by a less savvy administrator).

    Have either of you made any progress with development on this plugin?

    Ok, I've fixed the 404-error bug in this plugin. Now I'm trying to track down the edit post error.

    Are there any plugin mentors out there that can do a security audit on this code fix for me?

    I really need this damn plugin to work. Is there not anyone out there who's willing to fix this for at least $50?

    What did you change in the code to fix the 404?

    Did anyone fix this? is there a new plug-in that can do the same?

    For those looking for this feature I found a plug-in that does everything out of the box:
