WPtouch 1.9.9 Released Into Yonder Wild! (UPDATED)
UPDATED: WPtouch 1.9.9 introduced a bug which has been fixed in WPtouch 1.9.9.3. Please upgrade ASAP if you’re experiencing the issue.
Today we’re releasing an update to WPtouch to address a few issues which have been reported in the last while, and also add and revise a few existing features.
Tricky Fixes
Of note in terms of bug fixes are a fix for the admin page failing to load on some hosting setups, and a fix for some mobile browsers that have issues with return false;.
Fresh Features
In the what’s new category there’s been improvements to the comments via ajax and for iPhone/iPod touch visitors leaving comments they’ll now see the unique keyboards built into the iPhone for entering urls and e-mail addressses.
We were working on client-side text-size changing, but that’s not quite prime time so it hasn’t been included in this update.
Below you’ll find the complete list of changes.
Changelog
- Added HTML5 types for comment url and email (devices capable now show unique keyboard layouts for these inputs)
- Added and refined jQuery code, effects
- Revised post/page image sizing auto-detection features
- Changed the way Ajax comments work – will now work for everyone
- Changed code referencing javascript:return false; to javascript:void(0);
- Changed admin panel to stop using Ajax that would sometimes fail to load
- Removed comments-ajax.php from theme (not needed anymore)
- Removed ajax comments option from the admin (not needed anymore)
- Removed obsolete code orphans from old code methods
- Bug fixes
The update notification should appear in your WordPress admin shortly.

Yowzers, think we forgot to comment out a line. We’ll release an update to fix that. For now you can comment out line 274 in WPtouch.php to suppress the warning.

Confirmed same error on Android (1.5 via Droid Eris).
Gonna comment out that line now.Literally installed 1.9.8 for the first time, then upgraded to 1.9.9 and ran into it… still not dissuaded… fantastic plugin.

Yeah we introduced the bug after removing a few things… our bad. The WPtouch 1..9.9.1 update fixes the issue.

Commenting that line out worked!
Looks to be running smoothly now and everything is in order. -

No worries! The WPtouch 1..9.9.1 update fixes the issue. Please upgrade ASAP.

The error message is now gone under 1.9.9.1, but now, as soon as all images and data have finished loading (until then everything looks fine), the front page/post disappears, except for the footer.

Not sure that’s related. Was everything working fine under 1.9.8.3 prior to the 1.9.x update for you?
-
Yes, 1.9.8.3 worked fine. How can I get 1.9.8.3 back?

I’d rather try and fix this version, because it has other improvements, believe it or not! This seems to be an android specific error, because it doesn’t happen on my iPhone. It appears you have several opther plugins going as well. Any changes to them recently?
-
Actually, I’m looking at this on a BlackBerry Storm. Yes, I do run 59 plugins, but like I said, even with 59 of them, I had no issues with v1.9.8.3.

Same problem – gave me that error on my pc version as well. I’ll try that fix.

Post thumbnails are supported already for WordPress 2.9+ sites with WPtouch. Check the admin options.
-
-
I have unchecked both:
‘Enable Categories tab in the header’
AND
‘Enable Tags tab in the header’
but now with version 1.9.9+, they are visible (not honored). This option was honored with the 1.8.3 version I just overwrote.
Please address this. This plugin is very much appreciated. Thanks !
-
I found why it’s not honoring the options. There is no conditional to check if either are enabled/disabled and the default is to just show them. It appears the same applies to the plugin’s login mechanism. While uncheck, it’s still visible on mobile page.

I can’t replicate the issue. For further discussion regarding the problem please post on BraveNewCode.com/support.

Dale,
1.9.9.2 fixes the issue whether you were able to replicate it at your end or not. I did nothing other than upload the new files on both occasions (upgrades)..
Anyways, all good. It’s honoring my configuration again.
Thanks!!!

Good to hear Juan! It’s a big plugin under the hood and we do our best to try and cover the angles in testing… Sometimes the roaches slip through the cracks!

Normal Opera 10.50 and Opera mini are the same =(

After upgrading to this version, my all desktop opera 10.50 (build 3296) visitors will see webpage as mobile version.
Can you fix that?

I love your new updates and how easy it is to install this. I even got some more people using it after this post: http://scottgale.com/blog/setting-up-an-iphone-wordpress-plugin/2010/03/06/
Also, smart move using HTML5. You might as well utilize it since the browser understands it.
