 * Thanks for the reply. I use the callback currently to use a custom html structure,
   and to separate trackbacks and comments (which I don’t think you need to do now
   to separate them?), but I don’t think it would help from what I can see.
 * There is an args parameter available in the custom function for the callback,
   but I think that just refers to the same args as in the wp_list_comments function…?

 * Hi Susan,
 * There are already a few plugins that redeclare this email, mine being one of 
   them: [New User Email Setup](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/new-user-email-set-up/),
   so you could either use that, or take a look at the code I use. It doesn’t add
   a phone number to the registration though.
 * Looking at your code, I’m not sure that using get_user_meta here would do anything,
   unless that has already been set by another plugin before the wp_new_user_notification
   is triggered. Your code doesn’t create any extra registration fields for the 
   register page, so I’m assuming that’s being handled by another plugin?

   for some reason using the `<wp:post_type>` tag doesn’t work.

 * Hi all,
 * Apologies for not keeping up with this thread, uni work has been keeping me really
   busy.
 * These are issues I’m aware of, and I’ll release fixes either today or tomorrow.

 * Hopefully the issue with the last letter being chopped off should be fixed.
 * As for the emails not being sent, I’ve just tested the latest version on all 
   versions again and I had no problems.
 * Please check if you have any other plugins enabled that alter the registration
   process in any way, and that if you are registering users via wp-admin/user-new.
   php that “Send this password to the new user by email.” is checked.
 * Some installs seem to have issues with the mail being sent regardless of my plugin,
   a quick search in these forums will come up with a lot of results for that, some
   of which have some solutions, such as using an SMTP mail plugin.

   It just seemed like too much work for something that was just me playing around!
 * Hopefully coming releases will automate it.

 * As far as I know, there won’t be any plugins because the Facebook API only allows
   for photos to be gotten from profiles and not groups/pages.

 * I’m also trying to do this, so bumping it up.
 * It seems strange that in taxonomy.php, category is defined using hierarchical
   => true.
 * And there is no unregister_taxonomy, to try removing category and adding another
   one in its place, and I want category to be there still anyway…

 * Hi Mike,
 * The plugin is actually compatible with 2.8. I’m the plugin author and I have 
   it running on 3 or 4 blogs at 2.8 with no problems.
 * I have never tested the plugin with a bbpress install running along side, so 
   I have no idea how it behaves with that.
 * Do your registration notification emails come through if the plugin is disabled?
   Where are users being registered?

 * Gian-ava, its unfortunately a little more complicated than that, I fell into 
   the same trap.
 * Check out this tutorial: [http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2008/05/17/how-to-avoid-duplicate-posts/](http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2008/05/17/how-to-avoid-duplicate-posts/)
 * That should help you. Also, have a look at post__not_in. I’ve not used it, so
   can’t really say what it does, but that might help to.
 * Alex
 * Edit: The reason what you have no isn’t working, is because the loop is getting
   4 posts, then excluding them if they are in the array of featured posts. In your
   case it does this:
    Get me 4 posts in News; Are any of these posts in Featured;
   If yes exclude them; Output 3 posts in News that aren’t in Featured.
 * What we want it to do it is the other way round!

 * If you access your site’s ftp, and go to the plugin directory and delete the 
   theme, the problem should go away.
