It’s been awhile since I’ve written anything on here or been able to do much work on kStats, and I must apologize for the absence. The holiday season came, and paid projects piled up for a short period that kept me far away from getting some much needed updates out.
Now that the holidays are nearing an end, I’m still finding myself under a heavy workload. While this is of course a priority to put some food on the table, I am going to do my best to balance some free time in to continue development of kStats – I have some big plans that I hope to start implementing soon, of which I will write more about in a future post.
The fixes
I have a new permanent note written on my project board; ‘Check compatibility’. I chose with the last release to make use of PHP’s built in filter_var() functionality, in lieu of reinventing the wheel for a validation routine. This method however wasn’t introduced until PHP 5.2.0, and caused the plugin to not function properly for anybody using it previous to that release. Fixed.
There was also a problem with the charts not displaying correctly on new installs. Despite the setting on the options page, a chart would only display as many days as it had data for, and didn’t fill in the blanks. This has been fixed, and should now display a full chart, regardless of data for a particular day.
