Just wanted to toss out another comment about how much this capability will be appreciated. Looking forward to the next release!

What kind of error did you get? Blueblurry’s code works fine even on my 1.6 alpha site.

One reason not to mention WordPress is that it keeps spambots from attacking the site. Since I removed the link to wordpress, and the meta line that’s supposedly for WP internal stats four months ago, I’ve had zero spam comments, and I’ve got no anti-spam plugins running.

Yeah, I appreciate what wordpress has done, but I also don’t necessarily give attribution to redhat, apache, windows, photoshop, or the other tools that go into my site.

Thanks Macmanx, that was exactly the kind of information I was looking for. Of course that leads to a follow-up question about best practices for RSS feeds. If I’m changing an older post that’s dropped off of the RSS feed, then the update service still won’t know about it.

Is it considered polite to keep your RSS feed as small as possible, or can I include the last year of posts in it, (maybe 20 articles)? I supposed I can keep the volume of traffic down by just including the exerpts in the feed, instead of the entire article.

Is there a “standard” for RSS publishing?

Maybe you guys could write up a tutorial that people could reference. It could go in the codex so people could take a look anytime.

Just out of curiousity, how much of the core files did you have to hack to make this?

That works…I just fixed it another route by copying the function get_currentuserinfo() and get_userdatabylogin() from pluggable-functions.php to functions.php. I think kinki’s is the more elegant approach though, especially as it seems that exhibit development has pretty much progressed as much as it’s going to go.

Here’s another instance of Exhibit not working with the new version. I’m running the latest (asy) version from his website. I’m guessing that there is an easy fix to point it to the file that has the get_currentuserinfo() function, but I haven’t had a chance to look too far into it.

Just curious to see if you’re still planning on releasing this theme. I saw it for the first time, and I’m loving it!

Looks fantastic! Any hints on how you accomplished that?

Well, I answered my own question. There are two 1.5 compatible plugins on wp-plugins.org that restore the lost functionality. Thanks authors!

Rboren, thanks for the quick reply. Any chance of getting an anticipated change list added to the dev blog?

Hey developers,
What exactly is disappearing with the geo code? Will the lat and long fields disappear completely? Will custom fields be the only way to get this functionality in the future?
Slightly concerned…

How much of the GEO stuff will be gone? Will it not even have a lattitude and longitude field anymore? For some sites out there, this is pretty critical stuff.

It’s actually pretty easy…most of the time. I’ve gotten mine hacked, but it doesn’t always call the HTMLarea script. It works if I edit a single post, and if I start a new post all the times. If I try to edit a post from a strange view, like by categories, it doesn’t always call the javascript. I suspect it’s a path problem, and I just haven’t had time to trace it out.
