Winter Blues and 5.4.1
It’s hard to believe it has been so long since we posted here. Since those balmy summer days, friends in the USA have been gripped by some severely cold and white days, those in Australia and New Zealand have been roasting and here in the UK we have had the wettest January on record and […]
Alpha, Beta, Unified
It seems like we have been working on this forever, but at long last we are ready to launch Unified – our mobile-ready Simple:Press theme – into the hands of our members for a beta test phase. Anyone visiting this site with a phone will have seen the alpha in place for several weeks now […]
5.3.1 and Mobile Responsive Theme
We are quickly approaching the beta release of our new mobile responsive theme! In order to support that, we will be releasing SP version 5.3.1 in parallel with it… As part of our usual test out process, we are now running 5.3.1 here on our support forum. Also, we are running the latest of our […]
At Long Last – 5.3.0 is Released
As our last ‘major’ release – 5.2.0 – hit the shelves last December in the middle of our northern hemisphere winter it seems somehow appropriate that 5.3.0 debuts in the middle of our most glorious summer for many years – at least here in the UK. Yes – it has been a very long time […]
Our First Mobile Theme Gets an Airing
We know! – our mobile theme development has been dragging on and on for a long time. Partly this is because of the support that we have also needed to build in to our Simple:Press plugins. But it has also had a lot to do with the long, long overdue release of WordPress 3.6 which […]
Some Upcoming Simple Press Plugins
With the recent delay in WP 3.6 (for all the right reasons, btw), we have had some extra time on our hands. We have our 5.3 release for compatibility with WP 3.6 essentially ready to go. So we decided to add some new, requested functionality via plugins. We thought we would give you a short […]
BuddyPress Integration Plugin
For some time now, we have been wanting to more tightly integrate Simple:Press with BuddyPress, the community or social networking plugin for WordPress. Finally, that time is near. We now have available a beta version of a BuddyPress integration plugin for Simple:Press. With this integration plugin, you can have Simple:Press forum activity show in the […]
Security 5.2.6 Update
By the time this is published there will be an update to Simple:Press core (5.2.6) available for download. This is a recommended update to all of our users as it plugs a small security hole worth plugging. We have also taken the opportunity to throw in a small change which will reduce the number of […]
Introducing a New Custom Plugin Service
For some time now, we have had a custom theme service that many of our community has taken advantage of in order to create a unique Simple:Press experience on their sites. Today, in keeping with helping you give your users the best user experience possible, we are happy to announce the addition of our Custom […]
Our Birthday Release of Version 5.2.3
Unbelievably it has been a year (and a couple of days) since we first released Simple:Press 5.0 and today – as a completely coincidental form of celebration – we are pleased to release our latest update – version 5.2.3. This update mainly represents a clearing of the decks of as many bugs and issues as […]
