    Please note that if you update to WordPress 3.9 you will lose the editor on the bottom description for categories and tags.

    I have no plans to update this plugin.

    No further support will be offered to this plugin. Hopefully someone else will develop a replacement plugin.

    There are too many WordPress updates that happen for me to commit any time to maintaining any of my plugins.

  • Hey Kevin if you can add me to this plugin I would be happy to maintain it. I have a client that is using it currently and doesn’t want to lose the functionality. Feel free to contact me if you like pmcdonnell at gmail

    Hi Phil

    just to get you started the issue is that the new editor does not allow brackets in the call. So the problem is with line 136

    wp_editor(html_entity_decode($cat_meta['bottomdescription'] , ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8'), 'Cat_meta[bottomdescription]', $settings); ?>

    You can get the editor back by dropping the html_entity_decode filter but then of course you lose the ability to run html. Also using

    wp_editor($cat_meta['bottomdescription'] , ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8', 'Cat_meta[bottomdescription]', $settings); ?>

    means having to retweak the line to allow any changes to be saved.

    Personally I’m sticking to WordPress 3.8 so I am not going to need to try and fix this unless security comes so bad that I’m forced to upgrade.

    AS I’m still running some site quite happily on WordPress 3.7 it could be a long time before I need to fix this issue for my sites.

    Kevin
