IFrameWidgets 1.01 Update – Fix For WordPress 2.5

June 9th, 2008 by Stephen Cronin (Please wait) [Shortlink]

I’m finally releasing version 1.01 of the IFrameWidgets WordPress plugin. The only change is that is has been re-written so that it will work with WordPress 2.5, which changed the way widgets worked.

If you are on WordPress 2.5 and above, use Version 1.01 of IFrameWidgets. If you are on an older version of WordPress, use version 1.0 of IFrameWidgets.

IFrameWidgets can stop slow loading JavaScript widgets from breaking your page. Widgets remain hidden until completely loaded, then appear in whole. If they don’t load, they won’t take up any space on your sidebar. If they load slowly, or hang, they won’t stop the rest of your page from loading.

Thanks To EagleHawk

A BIG Thanks to Eaglehawk from Flight of The Eaglehawk for alerting me to the problem and for beta testing the new version.

Where Do I Get It?

IFrameWidgets v1.01 can be downloaded from the IFrameWidgets plugin home page. Further information about the plugin and it’s features, including installation / upgrade instructions, is also available on the plugin home page.
