A couple of major improvements include new re-added support for “deep” integration and a new notification system that will report fatal errors in plugins on activation. BackPress is now also up to scratch with the code it borrows from WordPress 2.7, meaning a lot of […]

I’ve pushed out a new stable version today as a fairly major flaw was discovered that affected users of the previous stable release 0.9.0.2 The flaw meant that regular users could not edit their own email address at all via their profile page. Which sounds like it would be something that would take less than […]
