How do I find out which version of Oxwall is supported by a plugin? | Forum

I was expecting some sort of field to be attached to each plugin declaring which version of Oxwall it's built for.


Can I assume that all plugins in the store will work with the latest version 1.5?

Ah, okay. Thanks for the info. Any ideas on  when you want to strictly implement version checking? Just curious.

Plugins don't have this check but Themes have.

Hello guys,


Currently, "version check" isn't supported for plugins and themes. For developers, a good way to highlight 1.5 supporting is to place to same note in item's description.

Quote from Paul Cuffe I think it should become standard for the plugin makers to put in the title or very clearly first / 2nd line of description what version it works with

That's not a way a "No.1" social networking script core should handle plugins.

Well, they did indicate they want to do code based checking some time later...

Can you point to me to that "post"?

I actually could point you to a link where this was but I don't care for your attitude.

Thanks for not caring. I am saved.

It's crazy Paul. I know I saw it somewhere. Now I can't find it because I am looking for it. Murphy's law.


I will probably remember later when I forget this conversation, and I promise to get back here and post a link.

Yes, there should be a page categorizing each versions of oxwall and their differences. Would be very much useful
