I’d like to announce the official release of the updated Get Custom Field Values plugin (v2.5).

Easily retrieve and control the display of any custom field values/meta data for posts, inside or outside “the loop”.

The plugin’s official homepage is located at :
coffee2code.com/wp-plugins/get-custom-field-values.

Highlights

This plugin has been faring well despite its nearly four years of life, even after many updates to WordPress. This latest release brings with it full compatibility with WordPress 2.3+ and 2.5 (with continued support for 2.1+ and 2.2+).

This update is part of coffee2code’s 14 Days of Plugins (updated plugin #2).

Comments welcome on this post for this version of the plugin. Comments will be closed once this release has been superseded by another.

Read on for a detailed ChangeLog of the release.

With great pleasure I announce the official release of Customizable Post Listings v3.0. This release has been years in the making, and I’m excited to finally let people in on the new features.

The plugin’s official homepage is located at coffee2code.com/wp-plugins/customizable-post-listings.

Highlights

Here’s a recap of the new features and changes introduced in this new release.

• Better administration!
  Options are now stored in the database and configurable via the plugin’s new admin options page.
• Better documentation!
  The plugin’s admin options page includes documentation for all percent-substitution tags (54!), pseudo-function percent-substitution tags (5), template tags (4), and their arguments.
  Also, the plugin distribution zip file contains a readme.txt.
• More features!
  • Almost three dozen new percent-substitution tags!
  • New feature of pseudo-function percent-substitution tags that are more dynamic than regular tags! (get custom field values, specially format a date, or call your own function!)
  • Can be used to find posts without formatting them!
  • Can be used to format posts you’ve already found!
  • List drafts, pending, or future posts, pages, recent commenters to a post, exclude categories and/or authors, and more, like never before!
• Updated support for WordPress!
  Test through WP 2.3.3 and 2.5
  Support added for post_status, post_type, taxonomy, tags, etc
• NOTE: Not fully compatible with how you may have been using older versions of this plugin

Not bad for a plugin 3.5+ years old and counting…

Kicking things off for coffee2code’s 14 Days of Plugins (updated plugin #1)…

Detailed ChangeLog follows after the cut…

NOTE: Users of any older version of Customizable Post Listings will want to review their usage and compare it to the new arguments for the various functions. More than likely you will have to change the way in which you call the functions! If no posts appear, or the posts that appear are not the posts you were expecting, this is probably the reason why…
