Textpattern 4.5.0 Beta and plugins
Although I posted part of this info in this thread, I think that a separate thread might be more appropriate. Can you all please post your findings regarding the plugins you use and the latest 4.5.0 beta release?
I hope that this thread will help in the eventual upgrade of all our sites. Do note that if a plugin does not work you should also post your tests at the appropriate plugin thread.

Do upm_image & esq_sectionsort work?
I have no idea as I am not using the particular plugins, maybe someone here will tell us.
Also, I don’t know if this is the right place to ask, but, does Txp 4.5 provide anyway to nest sections? Like parent page/child page.
No it doesn’t. I think that this is shelved for the future

Re: Textpattern 4.5.0 Beta and plugins
@wet: shouldn’t you guys have put save_new in core by this point? I know I’m harping, but seriously. A button to save a new version of an article can’t be THAT controversial. Look at any desktop application on the planet. They all have “Save As”. Throw it into 4.5. Do it so we don’t have to have a js shim loaded on every single site we build.
And throw in a pony.

Re: Textpattern 4.5.0 Beta and plugins
@ colak
For example, hiding the excerpt field in selected sections don’t works. I don’t know why. In this case the classes are the same, in Textpattern 4.4.1 and in 4.5, class="excerpt".
Other example.

rah_sitemap 1.2 works
v1.2 of rah_sitemap does work technically. Nothing errors out, and sitemap is generated. But the settings the plugin offers can allow content and URLs get in the sitemap that lead to a 404 page with the Textpattern 4.5’s page routing. These 404 pages are as should, not an issue from core’s side.
The current development version of rah_sitemap doesn’t have this issue and works around any limitations. Mainly doing so by concentrating to actual articles and valid stock URLs. There is a new API that can be used to extend sitemaps functionality with modules and be used to all the crazy extra stuff.
rah_write_each_section 0.2 works
This one has the same story as the rah_sitemap. It has development version that works flawlessly, but v0.2 really doesn’t. While it may work or seem to work, it’s not flawless. In v0.2 the selector panel is rather rough looking with the new admin-side themes. The bigger issue is that it hides the wrong field element the editor form (I suppose it affects category2 field) and not the section field. The plugin also doesn’t reset default selected options.
As with rah_sitemap, the plugin is developed on GitHub and the development version works properly with Textpattern 4.5. If you go to that link you may notice that the plugin has been re-branded. The next version of rah_write_each_section will hold the shorter name of rah_wrach.
The development version and next release fixes the field hiding and the section selecting. It will also prevent the article form from popping up on page load as it will now use server-side PHP to hide the form instead of JavaScript.
Rah_wrach takes advantage of layouts and widgets present in Textpattern 4.5. For the selection prompt it uses a grid layout with few labels providing bit extra information about the section.
Clicking the article count label takes you to a list of article posted in the section. As RSS/FRONT labels might tell, now any section can be visible on the prompt. There is a setting present in Preferences panel which lets you set what those sections are. By default all sections are present on the prompt.
Rah_wrach will be released after Textpattern 4.5, most likely at the same day if timezones and such let. Due to dependencies on widgets, rah_wrach will require Textpattern 4.5. Rah_write_each_section’s older version can be used on v4.4.1 and older.
