Hello Everyone,

Thanks to all those who either left comments or sent me email about the issues with WordPress v2.8 and v2.8.1. I may not have had the time to reply to everyone yet, but I do read them all.

You’ll all be happy to hear that the Page Blocks plugin v1.0.3 is now compatible with versions of WordPress up to and including v2.8.1 and is now downloadable from the WordPress Plugin Directory at http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/page-blocks. I’ve tested it on a stock standard installation of WordPress with no other plugins and using the default Kubrick based theme, so if you install it on your site and it still doesn’t work properly then please contact me using the contact form at http://wordpress.softwud.com/contact-us.

For those interested it seems that the guys at WordPress.org have made numerous changes going from v2.7.1 to v2.8… which is good for users. However the behaviour of some WordPress functions has been changed causing the plugin to behave incorrectly; these changes seem to be related to the new plugins security changes the new Widget API.

Thanks again for all the positive feedback… and stay tuned for some new features to be released soon!

Best Regards,
Paolo
