Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: in-series plugin does not support multi-character(ex: chinese)I would prefer any support requests be directed to the plugin’s site, either via comments, the contact form, or a message posted to the mailing list. I do not, as a rule, monitor these forums.
The issue here is that your database’s default character set is not UTF-8 (or some Chinese-specific charset). In Series uses the database’s default character set for all string fields, whereas WordPress (by default) overrides to use UTF-8 (it can be overriden to use other charsets).
In Series probably should use $wpdb->charset to determine the character set/collation. It doesn’t right now, for a variety of reasons. It does still work for all MySQL configurations that use UTF-8 (or any other character set that’s appropriate for your region) by default. Gentoo (my development platform) configures MySQL to use UTF-8 by default, though a completely unconfigured MySQL will default to latin1 (the behavior that you’re experiencing).

In reply to: in-series plugin: all_series() doesn’t return all series namesall_series() was a horribly, horribly broken interface. It has been relegated to in-series-legacy.php, to be kept around until such time that I deem it is worthy of axing altogether.
Please check out the latest version of the plugin (3.0.7 at the time of writing). It provides much saner series listing options, and version 3.1 will have a widget to integrate series listing into the sidebar without having to hack PHP.

In reply to: In-series plugin: getting just a URL, docs inconsistentThese issues (and more) are resolved with the newer versions of In Series. I’m now maintaining this plugin over at <http://remstate.com/projects/in-series/>.
The detailed API documentation is now inline with the code, in in-series.php (and in-series-legacy.php, but you’ll probably like the new interface better). See adv_NextInseries and adv_PrevInSeries for echo-less returns. Or, just use the built-in, PHP-hacking-free layout configuration. 🙂
