Very nice, but you keep breaking the MLP Pack ;)
Edit: certainly not meant as criticism!

Re: r2990
smd_tags won’t work either until I update it to pull the new expiry column out :-(
Nice addition though. Bit of a monster change at this stage of the release cycle!

Yes I know ;) As I said, not meant as criticism, I was just thinking: poor Steve!
But what does it break? Returns
410when MP article is reguested?
No. It can be easily fixed (I think) by adding the same column that was added to the textpattern table to the mlp tables, but I’m still trying to figure out how to add a column to a table using phpMyAdmin…

It is :). But possibly wet and ruud (plus co.) thought that it shall not break anything.

Maybe steve can confirm that. I don’t know will it fix it, but if you want to add there a column, just select and browse mpl’s table. Then click Add column at the bottom of the page, and fill column prefs (that they are identical to textpattern table’s one).

Re: r2990
Yep, I just found it myself (thanks anyway Gocom!), and I can confirm that adding a column ‘Expires’ to the mlp tables solves the problem :)

Oh dear. What was it that Robert said…
“Stable” is not “stagnant”. “Stable” means “we won’t break stuff (unless it promises loads of fun)”.
So was it fun? ;)

Of course it was! Also because solving it turned out to be relatively easy :) And of course I’m old and wise enough not to use a development version on a live site… ;)

Re: r2990
Oh that’s no fun at all Els. Using a development version on a live site should be the law! ;)
And even more fun is using a hacked development version on a live site. Living on the edge you know. Fun! Fun! Fun!

Well, if 4.0.7 isn’t going to be released within a couple of days, that’s probably exactly what I’m going to do :)

Re: r2990
Go for it Els. I can remember when most plug-ins were more like hacks. :)

Many content management systems call their hacks as plugins, when those aren’t really plugins, because those “plugins” recuire modifications to the core. Textpattern is so different. Love.
Ofcourse we plugin authors could write our plugins as hacks too ;) What you say guys, won’t it be much simpler to install a hack-plugin than automatically self-installing autorun-plugin? Reading installation guide is fun too, “Place file foo.php to dir foo/bar/. If the dir doesn’t exists already, you must create it. Then include first line below in index.php at line 393, and second in txp_article.php at line 405, if you are using version 4.0.6. If you are using any other version, then, we don’t know which line to use…” :D
