Sites And Products For The UK – TestedPost Testing Plugins Post WordPress 2.5 Install
Posted on April 02, 2008As previously mentioned, Sticky Post is not yet compatible with WordPress 2.5, and the WP Random Tagline plugin also has issues. I’ve contacted the author to see if they have the time to fix the issue. Fuzzy widgets does not follow the expected behaviour now found with WP 2.5; whereas in the past you had to define how many Text/RSS widgets you wanted available, you can now simply add another to your sidebar by clicking add. Other 3rd party plugins follow this behaviour as well, however Fuzzy widgets still require to set how many you specifically want. Finally, the Fuzzy Widgets’ Recent Posts appears to have issues displaying the widget’s title – though this is just cosmetic, the actual recent posts are dislpayed properly.
The following is to check the functionality of the other plugins I am testing…
Please head on over to the main Chris Merriman blog to for a more detailed look at which plugins are working OK.
WordPress 2.5 Installed
Posted on March 30, 2008I have just finished upgrading this blog to WP 2.5, see this post on my main blog for further details. Basically, all went well, though I’ve had to (temporarily??) disable the Sticky Post plugin, and the Automatic Upgrade plugin was unable to clean up its temporary files straight away.
If anyone notices any issues on this blog, please do leave a comment.

Another UK Trip Coming Up…
Posted on December 05, 2007This Christmas, we (myself, my wife Ira, and her parents) are going to Britain. My in-laws will be there for Christmas and Mum’s wedding, and then returning to Kazakhstan for New Year. Ira and I will be staying for a total of 3 weeks (22nd December – 15th January) so we can catch up with friends, and spend a bit more time with Mum & John, as well as Dad & Jan.
Anyway, when combined with September/October’s trip, I hope to have some more material for UK-themed reviews on this blog soon.
Back Home In Kazakhstan
Posted on October 21, 2007As you may have read at my other blog (www.ChrisMerriman.com), I am now back in Kazakhstan, after a little under a month in Britain. I have a few reports/reviews to write from my time there, but you will have to be patient a little longer, as I still have around 400 e-mails to plough through. Anyway, hope all are well who read this, and see (in the online sense) everyone soon
