Lester ‘GaMerZ’ Chan has published a post on his personal site that addresses two common issues users are facing right now as they relate to AJaX.
About 2 weeks ago, I release an update to r WP-Email, WP-Polls, WP-PostRatings and WP-PostViews which added some nonce check and moved the AJAX request to be handled by /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php.
Lester explains what each issue is along with the solution.
Lester ‘Gamerz’ Chan was recently interviewed by Singapore magazine, GoDigital. You’ll have to use your mouse to scroll through the first few pages to get to the interview but once there, you’ll read some great insight into who Lester is as a person. Here are a couple of tidbits I took away from the interview.
Lester became involved with WordPress before there was a WordPress. That is to say, he worked with B2 which is the predecessor to WordPress and what WordPress is based on.
His personal site, Lesterchan.net is one of the top three websites in Singapore.
He will continue to maintain his plugins for security purposes.
He has the same shoe size as me. (11)
While the magazine is flash based, I managed to take a screenshot of the first page of the interview to help give you a taste of what’s inside.
How many of his plugins are you using on your site? Here on the Tavern, we’re using WP-Polls, WP-PageNavi, and WP-Stats.
