Actually, I was not updating ACE, since I havn’t got ANY problems with it, on the sites I’am using it, on a daily basis.
Thus I can’t do anything with comments that say “it does not work with wp 2.9″. Because it does work. Although if you can’t see any difference for example in widgets, it can be a theme issue. Or if it’s suddenly stop working, it can be an ISP issue, who upgraded PHP wihtout notifying you.
Please, if you really want to help, stop saying “it does not work”, please describe the problem correctly, than I could help ypu work it out.
About the new version
New exclusion sections have been added like 404 error page, Attachment page and so on.
New native Categories widgets support have been added, and there is a new configuration page for Categories Widget. Recent comments and Recent posts configuration is on the way. It will be available in final ACE 1.5.
And also some translations have been submitted in the mean time.
I’ll include them as well.

I suggest you look into errors with php 5.3. I will turn on error reporting and post the errors I am getting.
February 4th, 2010 at 15:58
I’m currently working under 5.3

Thanks!

I’d like to contribute in Bahasa Indonesia translation. Is that possible?
February 11th, 2010 at 10:23
Hi Dhany,
what a question
It’s possible for sure, but a lot of things are changing in ACE 1.5, I guess 1.4.x translations won’t work at all
February 11th, 2010 at 12:36
I hope this is the right place for a bug report:
WordPress: 2.9
Php: 5.3.0
MySql 5.1.41
Language settings – default (all English)
Active plugins: ACE ACE Widgets
Theme: WP classic 1.5
Long category list, no exclusions set yet
Problem: many posts are shown repeatedly, and two lines appear at the top of the blog:
Warning: Parameter 1 to ace_where() expected to be a reference, value given in /Users/mauricenaftalin/Sites/maurice/blog/wp-includes/plugin.php on line 166
Warning: Parameter 1 to ace_join() expected to be a reference, value given in /Users/mauricenaftalin/Sites/maurice/blog/wp-includes/plugin.php on line 166

Maurice, until ACE 1.5 is not released, a solution for PHP 5.3 is here:

I’ll be waiting until the release of ACE 1.5 to work on the translation.

Thanks for your work!
Using WP 2.9.2 and ACE Version 1.4.3, I’ve found that a sticky post will be displayed on my homepage even if its category is excluded..
otherwise, looks great (in the simple way that I use the plugin atm!)
Thanks, Tim
March 3rd, 2010 at 00:59
Thanks, Hungary! You are doing an excellent work! WP 2.9.1 ACE 1.43 is working correctly! Thaaaaaanks!
March 6th, 2010 at 16:48
i tried the 1.5alpha version but it’s still impossible to show category posts widget content on the home page while the category is excluded for home.
is there any workaround for this? running wp 2.9.2
thnx.
March 6th, 2010 at 22:20
Category widgets currently not compatibe with WordPress 2.9. Rewrtiting is in progress
March 24th, 2010 at 18:56
I have an issue, and I want to make sure I understand functionality correctly.
We are on WP 2.9.2 and ACE 1.4.3.
We have a post, which has 3 categories. One of those categories is “banned” from the home page. The other two categories are not banned, that is, we want it on the home page.
The issue is: the post IS in fact hidden. I am confused because your FAQ states:
“If I post in one category that is hidden, and another one as well, which is not. What will happen?
Then, your post won’t be hidden. This plugin only hides your post, if all of the defined categories selected for exclusion.”
March 24th, 2010 at 19:05
FAQ is old.
March 24th, 2010 at 21:32
So, what then is the actual way it works?
What is the answer to this question:
“If I post in one category that is hidden, and another one as well, which is not, What will happen?”
April 14th, 2010 at 18:27
Hy
I’ve got problems with the plugin under 3.0ß1 its not poppin any errors, its just not excluding the category’s posts
I’d be glad to know when its next upcoming version is gona be released.
Thanks for your work!

WP 2.9.2 does not work with ACE 1.4.3 (((((((((((((
April 15th, 2010 at 16:27
Please be more precise, WHAT is not working?
Because I use it on many WP 2.9.2 installs.
April 20th, 2010 at 14:30
Is there a way to use this to hide a post on the main page for a certain category?
Thank you
April 20th, 2010 at 14:32
A way?
This plugin is for that purpose!
April 28th, 2010 at 08:44
Is there an option in this version that allows for sticky posts in excluded categories to still be shown in the home section of the blog?
If there is none, can i know the specific plugin file to edit (and the specific lines of code if its not too much to ask
).
Thank you very much.
(to moderator: please delete the previous post and this line, i mispelled stick for sticky, thanks)

There’s an issue with ACE ignoring the incoming value when filtering the “excluded”-parameter, and thus breaking wp_list_pages and wp_pages_menu I posted a fix over at pastebin: http://pastebin.com/7aq8hdiR
I’ll try and paste the code here to:
function ace_list_pages_excludes($excludes)
{
$filter = ace_get_section();
$posts_to_exclude = get_option(“ace_page_sections_”.$filter);
$posts_to_exclude = array_merge($excludes, explode(“,”, $posts_to_exclude));
return $posts_to_exclude;
}
July 24th, 2010 at 14:48
I would like to understand if there is a setting that controls whether an excluded category appears in WP’s Next and Previous links.
At the moment an excluded post appears there, and then gives an error if someone clicks on the link because it does not display in any section. I could enable display as single post, but I prefer to hide everywhere.
How do I exclude a category from Next/Previous links?
Thanks
