[Plugin: AsideShop] Not compatible with WP 2.8? (15 posts)

    I had this plugin enabled on my blog when I upgraded to 2.8 this morning. When I checked my site it was repeating the first post indefinitely, and I'm pretty sure it was doing the same for pages also (as you could expect, my browser crashed).

    I narrowed it down to this plugin & currently have it disabled. Is there any way I can fix this - is the author planning an upgrade to make it compatible?

    Thanks

    I found the same thing. Disabling AsideShop fixed the problem.

    Same here. Took me a while to trace it to AsideShop but disabling it fixed my blog.

    Fan-^$*%-ing tastic. I don't suppose the plugin author has any plans to provide a fix either?

    zoecorkhill, dnorman, patrix, LincolnAdams,

    Thanks for feedback on this. I do not have a blog myself and I'm not using WordPress on a regular basis either so my incentive creating this plugin was out of the blue.

    I will try to look into this but I can't guarantee that it's going to happen tomorrow. Curently I'm pretty busy. If you can provide a patch which fixes 2.8 compatibility issues, I'm willing to release new version in a day.

    Yup, same thing happened to me this AM.

    Guess I'll just find a way to code it into my theme by hand and not worry about a plugin.

    Thanks for looking into it. I've rolled back to 2.7 in the meantime

    The list of bug fixes in WP 2.8.1beta1 looked promising, but hasn't solved the problem with AsideShop.

    Any word yet on a possible update for this plugin for 2.8?

    Same here. Running 2.8.1, and aside shop went down.

    Still the same problem with 2.8.2.

    Please solve this issue!

    Am late to the party, but if people are still looking for workarounds, you can use categories to style posts by just editing a few files in your template (functions.php, index.php, and style.css). Although the article is old, the method still applies: http://lorelle.wordpress.com/2007/09/06/using-wordpress-categories-to-style-posts/

    I think I've resolved the problems here, but I'm no WP wizard. Everything seems to be working OK on my blog, with my changes.

    Essentially I think we need to replace the query overloading strategy with one that just hooks into the "the_post" action.

    Details can be found at my blog post on the changes.

    Feel free to try those hacks yourself, or if you are a WP wizard to comment on how to do the job better.
