• Fixed: RSS2 UTF-8 problems. New solution is cleaner, faster, and properly encodes the content- seek3r
• Improved: Performance/load issues. With WP2.2 its still possible we will push PHP over its memory limit, but I have made more reductions and hope it will work in more environments.

• Added: Support for OGG and SWF file, with included players- seek3r
• Changed: Config screens so that disabled sections become hidden- seek3r

• Fixed: problem with WordPress build in enclosure support causing double feed enclosures – seek3r
• Expanded: feed controls by file type. There has been format=EXT for awhile (which gives preference to the file extension you specify, and now there is onlyformat=EXT So if you wanted a feed with ONLY the m4v files showing up in your feed you would do site.com/?feed=rss2&onlyformat=m4v

7.7 — 2007-03-22

• Improved: Better security checks, and added redirectors incase anyone goes to a few files directly.
• Added: readme.txt and some screenshots. These are part of the switch to the wordpress.org plugins hosting service. Check podPress out over there <http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/podpress/>

7.6 — 2007-03-15

• Fixed: Podcast feed mechanism.This feature broke along the way somewhere, so I redesigned the way I was doing it to be more fully functional and make better use of some features in the wordpress framework – seek3r

7.5 — 2007-03-05

• Fixed: WPMU 1.1.1 support
• Fixed: slash problem with the blog title (only in certain cases)

7.4 — 2007-02-15

7.3 — 2007-02-07

• Fixed: Problems with category casting support, which broke after WP 2.07
• Added: Support for two sidebar widgets. 1) Feed links, which includes the iTunes button. 2) XSPF Player. podPress has long supported generation of an playlist.xspf but no one seemed to notice or care. Maybe this will improve things
• Fixed: Finally figured out how to protect the feeds from having bad characters (non-UTF8) that frequently cause feed validation problems for users. podPress was never to blame for this, but since people count on podPress for controlling their feed, I have decided to protect users from themeselves

7.2 — 2007-02-01

• Fixed: Problems with compatibility with WP 2.1 that still screwed up users after 7.1
• Added: support for a player image wrapper. Its in the player config page.

7.1 — 2007-01-25

• Fixed: Problems with compatibility with WP 2.1

7.0 — 2006-12-18

• Added: Theme compatibilty checking to help those having problems with the player not working. (seek3r)
• Fixed: Feed URL setting not saving. (seek3r)
• Replaced: Powered By logo with one from Daddo at <http://driftkikker.com/>. Thanks a bunch for this, its very cool. (seek3r)

• Updated: iTunes Preview to most recent look and feel. (seek3r)
• Added: Preview for the PodcastAlley.com and Yahoo podcasting directories I think this gives users a real sense of how things look to the outside world. (seek3r)

6.9 — 2006-12-06

• Changed: Seperated the itunes:new-feed-url setting from the feed URL, so that users can set the feed URL but have to seperately enable the potentially dangerous itunes:new-feed-url. (seek3r)
• Improved: Added feedurl and itunes:new-feed-url into category casting support (seek3r)
• Fixed: Support for WordPress 2.1\. (seek3r)
• Added: Support for WordPress MU. Im sure there will still be a few bugs here and there, but overall it should be in much better shape. I have it working on a dev install at http://wpmu.danondev.com. (seek3r)
• Improved: Alternate feed support (podcast, premium, atom 1.0, and torrent) which will work out of the box for WP 2.1 users. For 2.0.x users I still have the older working versions of the files. (seek3r)
• Fixed: Duplicate enclosure bug when using default wp-rss2.php. I figured out a way to trap the enclosure WP wants to add, and just let mine thru. (seek3r)
• Improvements: Improved stats support. (macx)
• Fixed: 100 day graph bug. (macx)
• Fixed: removed language attrib from script tags so that websites can validate with w3c-validator. (macx)

6.8 — 2006-09-10

• Changed: Top level podPress menu will go right to stats if they are enabled.
• Added: Added new graph based stats (Coded by David Maciejewski) .
• Improved: Stats view to be paginated now (next/prev) (Coded by David Maciejewski).
• Changed: In 6.6 the field for ‘iTunes Feed URL’ was misleading and caused HEAPS of problems with feeds. I’ve learned my lesson, labled this better and blocked the problem from happening again.
• Added: Button to feed validator.
• Added: Button to Ping iTunes. This is a temporary feature, soon I will have podpress ping iTunes when you add/edit a post. Im waiting on them to fix part of their ping service.
• Fixed: Problems with some html tags in itunes:subtitle and itunes:summary RSS2 feed.
• Fixed: Problems with saving settings. This seemed to only affect WP 1.5 users.
• Added: will add podpress content to the_excerpt now.

6.6 — 2006-07-13

• Added: Audio Comments support using the mobatalk.com/mychingo.com service.

6.5 — 2006-07-10

• Added: another solution for gettings stats to work (in optional files the podpress_trac dir can be copied into the main wordpress dir)
• Improved: memory consumption used during install and upgrades which may fix some of the blank screen bugs people using PHP5 are dealing with.
• Added: Ability to always have a fake enclosure in the feed when the content is protected (premium podcasting feature). This allows even protected posts to show up in iTunes, but the downloads will not function. I will soon add a way to define a default mp3 file to be used to let users know about your premium content.
• Added: Link to our frapper map. Another way to support podPress at no cost to you.

6.3 — 2006-06-23

• Fixed: invalid function memory_get_usage
• Fixed: bug in version checker
• Removed: a few unneeded files

6.2 — 2006-06-23

• Fixed: Some blank page occurances bug caused by exceeding memory limits. Accomplished this by breaking the admin code into seperate files. podPress admin code was consuming a little more than 2MB, but is now under 1MB. However, in PHP5 there are still potential problems because some PHP5 versions appear to consume twice the memory compared to PHP4\. Best solution is to increase the memory_limit in the php.ini
• Added: Support for setting the itunes:new-feed-url in the feed so that iTunes can be updated.
• Added: Support for disabling player for individual media files.
• Added: Support for setting max number of media files.

5.9 — 2006-06-09

• Fixed: The length of the stats URLs have been causing all sorts of problems. I have shortened them considerably

5.8 — 2006-06-02

• Added: safe debugging data in the RSS feed for when the enclosure is not showing up.
• Fixed: Length limits on various fields which mess up the display or would cause the feed to exceed some limits.
• Fixed: Extra pipe displayed on second media file labels.
• Fixed: RSS feed checkbox was unchecked by default, which will lead to mising enclosures if not paying attention
• Fixed: UTF-8 bugs

5.7 — 2006-05-31

• Fixed: Serious bug that caused enclosures to be missing in some situations.
• Improved: Cleaned up the admin javascript to function like the category casting page (much cleaner).
• Performance: Consolidated the podPress config down from 18 seperate wp_options into a single one. This means 17 less database hits on every page/rss load.

• Fixed: Include file path bug.

• Fixed: security bug in the wp-feed.php file I include in optional_files.

5.5 — 2006-05-30

• Fixed: Missing resetplayersettings function bug during activate.

5.4 — 2006-05-29

• Performance: I did a major re-structuring to the code base to accomplish some major performance improvements. podPress is at the stage where its nearly functionality complete and it was time to solve performance issues. Im going to list out some of the key aspects:
• Performance: Seperated out the admin functionality to a seperate extends class which is only loaded/compiled when doing admin tasks. So that is about 2000 lines of code no longer loaded/compiled to serve up web content and rss feeds.
• Performance: Seperated out the upgrade routines to a seperate extends class which is only loaded/compiled when doing upgrades. So that is another 500 lines of code no longer loaded/compiled to serve up web content and rss feeds.
• Performance: Streamlined the loading of podPress data so that it is available sooner but was able to reduce the database requests from 9 per Post to 2\. This should have a noticable benefit.
• Added: Stats support tester.
• Fixed: itunes:duration tag bug which would allow some unusual values to be displayed.

• Fixed: All output from podPress is now XHTML 1.0 compliant.
