AJAXed WordPress 1.21 released…finally.
After much delaying and dragging of feet and delaying of the third kind, AJAXed WordPress version 1.21 has been released with much fanfare and reader appreciation. This version introduces full AJAX navigation, better support for embedded JS in AJAX-loaded pages, and Italian language support.
The new version of the navigation module was commissioned and paid for by DJ Nightlife (may he be blessed with many children who don’t go through the “terrible-twos”.) AJAX Navigation has been available in AWP for several years now, but it was primitive and unfinished. Its use was limited to very specific websites that were capable of embracing its flaws. I’d like to thank him for his support of the project, and I would encourage any other users to consider commissioning features both for yourself and the AWP community at large.
AJAXed WordPress version 1.13 has been released. The major changes in this version include an optional rich text editor (tinyMCE) for comments, cleaner, smaller and faster JavaScript, inclusion of mootools library. Oh, and for users without JavaScript, features that serve no purpose without JS enabled don’t appear.
Changes in aWP Version 1.13
- Entire Project: Improvements — Many changes and updates for translations to make them more flexible and usable.
- AWP Core: Feature — Optional default structural CSS is now included, core.css.php file for modules to add required CSS to, and you can have a AWP specific style sheet in the theme’s aWP folder.
- AWP Core: Improvement — Translations now use aWP-xx.po (mo) naming conventions. Default .po file name has been changed to match.
- AWP Core: Fix — “Curly quotes” and apostrophes now always display correctly in links.
- JS Core: Improvement — The giant switch statements have been removed in favor of custom objects.
I can’t speak it, but I can read it well enough to know that the reviewer approved of AWP.

The administration panel of AJAXed WordPress didn’t work correctly in IE and would report an error when someone attempted to change screens. Sorry about this, and version 1.11.1 fixes this. This only effects administrators and does not effect users, so you don’t need to worry about it if you only use Firefox.
The following is the 1.11.1 changelog.
- AWP Admin: Fix — Fixed IE bug that made it impossible to switch screens in the admin panel.
- Inline Posts: Fix — Fixed PHP 5 bug with do_action(’awp_post’);.
- AWP Core: Fix — Fixed misspelling and a few untranslatable phrases. Props. momo-i.
- Live Preview, Quicktags, Preview Comment: Fix — Fixed bug when no suffix is used on comment form.
I had to do something to commemorate the once-every-four-years event that is today. Therefore, Version 1.11 of AJAXed WordPress introduces support for WP 2.5 (still in development), better handling of child comments when parents are deleted, integration with WP AJAX Edit Comments, smooth scrolling, a more usable Administration panel, and more.
Some Screenies of the new Admin Panel: (Note: The content is the same in both panels, you just see two different tabs of the Admin panel.)
In WP 2.3:
In WP 2.5:
- AWP Core: Feature — Scrolling method is now configurable. Choices are the new smooth scrolling, the older “bounce,” or no scrolling of any kind.
- AWP Core: Feature — Default .po file has been added to the core. Feel free to translate it.
- AWP Core: Fix — Fixed bug that would occur when people renamed aWP.php to awp.php
- AWP Core: Feature — Deactivating and reactivating AWP no longer resets options.
- AWP Admin: Feature — Admin panel was restructured to be more usable, and when saving the options or activating a module, it now “remembers” what page you were on.
- AJAX Edit Comments: New Module — Integrates AWP with WP AJAX Edit Comments, so both may run at the same time with ALL features.
- Inline Comments: Feature — Child comments no longer vanish when their parents are deleted.
