How many people interested in a fork?

    Hi Everyone,

    Just wondering how many people might be interested in a fork of this plugin? We’ve been using FireStorm for a number of our clients and like many of you, we can’t really afford to have it abandoned or unsupported.

    We’re thinking about doing a fork similar to how NextGen Gallery was forked into NextCellent.

    We have 3 goals:

    1) Provide timely bug fixes and security patches, if applicable.

    2) Restore features that were originally there and then removed when the Pro version was created.

    3) Add new features.

    Let me stress that we don’t have access (nor do we want) the Pro (paid) version. Everything we’re looking at doing will be based on either existing GPL code, new code that we write or code that others contribute.

    If there’s enough demand, we’re completely willing to take on the initiative of a fork.

  • We could be. Willing to buy if it’s good enough and works with WordPress SEO plugin etc. And must be responsive

    Hi Everyone,

    I wanted to post a quick update here. Unfortunately, there wasn’t enough of a response to justify creating a fork.

    The good news is, this plugin seems to be working great even with WP 4.2. Hopefully it will continue to work and give people enough time to transition away.

    From my perspective, I’m closing the door on FireStorm for good. Maybe someone else will pick it up and carry it forward.
