Content Gallery Plugin and WordPress 2.7
One of my favorite plugins that is used on Organizedthemes.com and the Northridge Church and Crossgate Church themes is not compatible with the next version of WordPress. I am running a few mock up sites for my clients with WordPress 2.7 Beta 3 when I noticed that I could not get the Featured Content Gallery to save any settings. I checked and Jason Schuller, the plugins author, and said he is aware of the problem and will have a fix available in the next version of the plugin. He also said that there will be lots of new features that everyone will be pleased with.
The bottom line is, if you are depending on this plugin as I am, don’t upgrade to WordPress 2.7 when it becomes available until the Featured Content Gallery plugin is fixed.
This plugin has now been fixed. You can find out more and download it here.

The plugin has now been updated. The plugin page on Revolution Two doesn’t mention it, but in the forums, Jason explains that he updated the plugin, but didn’t want to change the version number until he adds more features.
I’m using the plugin now on my site and it works with 2.7, so head over to http://www.revoltuiontwo.com and get the new version.

There are still some problems with the plugin.
Only thumbnals appears but the main image does not. Others are having the same problem.

If you are having problems with Featured Gallery with 2.7 here is what I suggest. Make sure you have downloaded the update. Jason did not give it a new number, but it is different. If that still doesn’t help, then go to http://www.revolutiontwo.com/support/ and search for your specific issue there. If you will leave me the url to your site, I will look at it and see if I can find anything that might be causing the trouble.

The Featured Content Gallery WordPress Plugin has now been updated to version 3.0. iePlexus has taken over the plugin we’ve built a dedicated page at FeaturedContentGallery.com. There are now more customization options, and the plugin is WP 2.7 compatible. Head over to the site and let us know what you think!
