I’d like to announce the official release of the updated Linkify Posts plugin (v2.0) for WordPress.
Turn a string, list, or array of post IDs and/or slugs into a list of links to those posts.
Significant update. Highlights: renamed plugin; renamed `linkify_post_ids()` to `c2c_linkify_posts()`; allow specifying post slug as well as ID; dropped compatibility with versions of WP older than 2.8.
For more details, instructions, and the download link, visit the plugin’s official homepage at :
coffee2code.com/wp-plugins/linkify-posts .
Comments welcome on this post for this version of the plugin. Comments will be closed once this release has been superseded by another.

- Rename `linkify_post_ids()` to `c2c_linkify_posts()` (but maintain a deprecated version for backwards compatibility)
