  • FIX: Reworked about 80% of the plugin code, i.e., rewrote almost everything. Now the code is more logical and easier to extend.

3.1 (June 1, 2012)

  • Tweaks in the code; expanded the widget; slightly changed the appearance; added proper uninstallation of the plugin with removal of tables and settings.

IMPORTANT UPDATE: changed the names of tables in the DB (case sensitivity issues may occur), so when replacing files, the plugin will stop working. Do not activate/deactivate it! To rename the tables to the needed ones, append ?dem_rename_db_tables to the address of any blog page. Also, the settings will need to be saved again.
