This will be the last version to support WordPress 2.0. You’ll need to upgrade to WordPress 2.1 when K2 1.0 comes around.
Update: Please disable the WordPress Widgets plugin. There’s also a thread for K2 0.9.5 discussions
After several months since 0.9.1, we’re happy to announce the release of K2 0.9.5 RC 1. Here’s a short list of changes from 0.9.1:
- Added support for WordPress 2.1.
- Added support for Custom Image Header, allowing you to upload and crop your header images. Requires WordPress 2.1
- Optimized Rolling Archives and Live Search. If you were having problems with them in 0.9.1, they should work properly now in this build.
- Added Text Trimmer: you’ll notice a new slider next to the rolling archives, slide it to shorten the length of your text.
- The slider for Rolling Archives and Text Trimmer is now hidden on the first page.
- Streamlined K2 Options.
- Bountiful bug fixes.
Is this RC stable enough to use regularly or should I wait until the real release?
hi there
i get this error with the new release of K2
“Fatal error: Call to undefined function: is_active_module() in /home/.ottah/yazeez/yazeez.com/wp-content/themes/k2/theloop.php on line 76”
any way around it?
Matt: yup. it’s more stable than 0.9.1
be sure to upgrade your wordpress to 2.1.

Steve – I am now running your True Blue 1.3.4 with WordPress 2.0.7 and K2 0.9.1. I really like what you have done. I have a few questions that I hope you can answer _ have not found or received any helpful answers.
1. When I add asides (new category called asides) to my sidebar, they also appear in the Recent Post module. How can I have them not appear in the Recent Post module? Also, the asides module seems to prevent a module below from appearing. Any ideas?
2. How can I add the alerts you are using like at the top of this post?
3. I have tried to install a widget. Everytime I install a widget to my installation, the SBM modules all disappear from the SBM admin page. I have tried adding a widget to both my plugin directory and to the module directory. Same result. Where do I install a widget and how to I get it to work?
Thank in advance,
David
David:
1. We added that feature and fixed the asides bug in 0.9.5.
2. To add alerts, just create a p with the class of alert. For example:
<p class=“alert”>this will appear as an alert!</p>
3. You should install the widget into your plugins folder and activate it. It should then appear in SBM. Do not activiate the main Widgets plugin that manages widgets. That disables SBM.
