[Anouncement] WordPress Email Notification Plugin v3.0 Development

by Brian Groce on March 17, 2006

For those of you who have been asking or wondering, we have begun development of version 3.0 of the WordPress Email Notification Plugin. This version is going to be geared toward the 2.0.x line of WordPress and is going to change a handful of things in an effort to make it integrate better with WordPress and function smoother and more consistently.

What’s New?

We’re keeping mum on the specifics at the moment, but rest assured that we are planning adding a few of the features on the current wish list for the 3.0 release. Anything that doesn’t make the 3.0 release will be included in a future release as time allows.

In the meantime, please let us know which possible new features are the most important to you and let us know if you have anything to add to the wish list.

When Can I Get It?

Right now we do not have a scheduled date, but we’re shooting for a mid-late April release. Since this is done in our “free time” that time frame may get pushed back due to the paid projects we are involved with.

How Can I Help?

There are currently three ways you can help.

1. Sign up to be a beta tester.

2. Sign up to help with localization of common text messages and documentation used in the plugin.

3. Make a donation via PayPal donation to help “free up” our time.




If you have any questions or comments, please let us know.

What happened to this plugin? I’d be willing to donate a little money because this plugin is exactly what I need for War News Radio… but if you’ve given up then I guess my money would be better spent elsewhere.

This is still active and we’ve not had any issues running the latest release on WP 2.0. If you know of any specific issues, please let me know.

Also, yes, donations would be extremely helpful in order to free up our time. If everyone that used it donated a few dollars we’d be golden, but I believe that we have a grand total of $8 in the v3.0 development jar to date.
