I released Unwakeable 1.5 last night. This means Unwakeable is 100% compatible with WordPress 2.5! The previous version of Unwakeable, 1.2.1, didn’t play so nicely with WordPress 2.5.
Unwakeable 1.5 was built from the ground up using K2 r687 as a starting point. I decided to start fresh for Unwakeable 1.5 and scrapped pretty much all the code from 1.2.1. Unwakeable still has all the features it had in previous versions.
Advanced navigation and live search now work in Unwakeable. Unwakeable also comes with the K2 Sidebar Manager, a superior alternative to WordPress widets. You can enable the K2 Sidebar Manager or you can use WordPress widgets, either one will work. Or, if you don’t like sidebar managers, you can continue to modify the contents of sidebar.php to get the sidebar setup you desire.
You can download Unwakeable 1.5 from the official Unwakeable page. Please let me know of any bugs or problems you run into.
K2 Release Candidate 6 has been released. This release of K2 is fully compatible with WordPress 2.5.
I will be using K2 release candidate 6 as a base for Unwakeable 1.5. You can expect to see the release of Unwakeable 1.5 later on this week. You can download it from the official Unwakeable page.
WordPress 2.5 was released on March 29th. The current version of Unwakeable (version 1.2.1) doesn’t play so well with WordPress 2.5. The only thing that’s really broken is the dashboard, which is a pretty big thing to have broken.
It seems there’s a known issue with K2 themes and the WordPress 2.5 dashboard, as explained in the K2 support forums. There’s supposedly a fix for this issue, but I could not get it to work fully. The fix works fine as long as you have K2 sidebar modules disabled from the theme options page.
Unwakeable 1.2.1 is so far broken and outdated I’m not even going to make an attempt at fixing it for WordPress 2.5. Instead, I’m working on Unwakeable 1.5, which is based off K2 Release Candidate 5. Unwakeable 1.5 is almost finished and should be up for download within a week, if not sooner.
There’s some truly amazing looking screenshots people have taken in Halo 3. I absolutely love the fact that you can take screenshots from Halo 3 matches, I could spend hours watching movies looking for good screenshots to take.
i <3 halo 3 is a site that features some of the best Halo 3 screenshots I’ve ever seen. If you want your screenshots featured on the site, just get in touch with bs angel, the site operator. bs angel will browse through your screenshots at bungie.net. If she finds something good, she may post the screenshot to the blog. Now, go check it out!
K2release candidate 3 was released a little over four months ago. Today, as I was going through all my feeds, I saw there were some commits to the K2 SVN. The log for one of the commits stated that the version for K2 has been bumped up to release candidate 5. Here’s a piece from the commit:

Upped version to RC5. Preparing release.
This is rather exciting for me, especially the “preparing release” portion of that. I’m hoping “preparing release” means they’re getting ready to drop K2 1.0 as opposed to getting ready to release a download for K2 release candidate 5. As you probably know, Unwakeable is based on K2. Once K2 1.0 is out, I’ll start building Unwakeable 2.0.
I got so excited last night when I watched this on my Xbox 360. There’s only been one other game I’ve been this excited for, and that game was Halo 3. Gears of War is one of my favorite games of all time. The other day, I had an urge to play some Gears. A buddy and I sat down played through the whole campaign on Casual in a few hours. It was lovely.
