A picture is worth a thousand words… Due to the nice rainy Saturday we just had it left we me with no choice but to spend some nice quality time working on the plug-in. Take a look at this screen shot. Yep, not only will there be category support, they’ll also be hierarchical. Good stuff!
Once I’ve completed the next release I think I’m going to switch focus for a month and start working on the Pro version of the plug-in. It’ll have two primary features. The first will CSV import/export and the second will be the removal of the donate links and powered by link.
Almost finished with adding support for the honorable pre/suffix, middle name and social media IDs for an entry. I need to update the output class and hCard and vCard support to include these additions. I have the UI for the category page and the creation of the supporting tables upon activation complete.

Well, development has been good and happening at a fast pace. So far the next version will have more features and changes than any version prior.

In order to deal with that issue the next version of the plug-in will contain an alternate template that can be used. …
Well, I’ve finished renaming my PHP classes to make them a bit more unique as so to avoid conflicts with other plug-ins. I also scrubbed the code to make sure I’m using the same options instance throughout rather than creating a new instance of the class every time I needed it. I’m not certain, but …
Taking the time to rename all my classes to be a bit more unique to reduce the possibility of conflicting with another plug-in.
I’m not quite sure how to use PHP references yet or why would one want to use them. They are declared by using the ampersand character (&). Here’s the PHP Manual link. I’ve come across reference usage in a few WordPress plug-ins and even use it mine. This I kind of understand. The reference was …
When I first started coding PHP (a mere 9 months ago) I came across the @ character preceding an expression. My Google skills are pretty good but I couldn’t find what this meant and why it might have been used. I guess I couldn’t find my answer because I wasn’t sure what question to ask. …
