CTC – Version 5.2 Released

This is a quickie update to address a couple of issues. First off, you should once again be able to use the admin plugin update feature to get new versions, as I have now moved the plugin files out of the folder I had them in.
Secondly, as of version 5.2, all PHP short tags have been eliminated from the plugin. It didn’t seem to be a major issue, but if your server had short tags turned off you couldn’t use the admin panels to set your options.
Lastly, the individual link items inside the cloud now have their own class for styling purposes. You can now target a.ctc-tag in your stylesheet to apply styling to the links themselves.
As always, you can find the new version on the CTC Page, or you can grab it from the plugin page at WP Extend.

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.
