CTC — Automatic Upgrade Issues…

There is an issue when you use the automatic update feature. It creates an erroneous folder that contains the actual plugin folder. For the time being, please refrain from using the automatic upgrade. If you have already upgraded via the automatic method and the plugin disappeared from your plugins list, just ftp to your WP install, go into the plugin directory, and move the ‘tag_cloud’ directory from the ‘configurable-tag-cloud-widget’ directory to the main plugins directory. After you do this, you can activate the plugin as normal.
Sorry for the issues…I’m trying to find a fix, and will post agian when I figure it out.

I'll say this, it's been a hell of a ride!
When I created my plugin many years ago, I never thought it would be come so popular. I figured I'd get a few downloads here and there, but as of this afternoon, it's been downloaded 97,586 times...that's amazing! It also makes what I'm about to say even harder.
Got an idea for a WordPress plugin, but not sure how to start? Packt Publishing has you covered with their new release, "WordPress Plugin Development Cookbook" by Yannick Lefebvre. Through it's 11 chapters, Yannick takes you from setting up your development environment through publishing your plugin in the official WordPress respository.
Another plugin update...this time for my plugin for rearranging the admin menu to bring the Pages menu to the top. With version 2.0, on WP 2.8, you got a doubled Category link, and it didn't support custom taxonomies. As of version 2.1, it now does.
It was an easy fix, I just needed the time to get it done.
