Also, post-from-site v1.9.0 is out! I think I caught all the small bugs, but I am just me, so let me know if I missed anything. I’ve been working (slowly) on figuring out what exactly I’m doing here with pfs, and now I’ve got a better roadmap than the vague ‘do stuff’ idea that I had before. So you should be expecting a v2.0 within… a month? Perhaps longer, as I’m back in classes again. Anyway, this update includes tag support, the ability to create categories and tags, functional (& not hacked-together) image uploading, and a bunch of cleanup/bugfixes. And likely things I’m missing here, as I have been working on it on and off for nearly two months. The changelog should have all the information, and I’ll update the main post here to reflect the new changes tomorrow.

As I said, still planning on 2.0 being out by November (it’s nearly October already, wow) with either (or both) image integration with the media library (so your uploads show up in the library – I tried that for this release but couldn’t get it working, which is part of why it took so long), or AJAX-style image uploads & multiple uploads. I don’t know yet how that would affect the rest of the form (I might have to make everything AJAXy, which is shiny but intimidating), so to avoid the 2 months with no update thing, I’m only going to aim for one of these to happen. Other media support is also a possibility, but really WP likes to be difficult in this aspect.

As for my real life, I’m back in classes & am optimistic about them – I’m at UMass now, as a non-degree student. I’m applying for ‘proper’ grad school for fall ’10, so if anyone has any statement of purpose tips (the hardest part for me), I’d welcome them. I still have a job but no time for it, and I’m involved in various student activities – pretty much the same as last year. I’m also getting over a cold, so I should probably get off the computer & go to sleep at a somewhat reasonable hour.
