We just sent out download links to our WP Guardian customers for WP Guardian 1.0.1. It isn’t the big update we have planned for next week and adds no new features. It contains a few minor bug fixes. If you’re a WP Guardian customer and didn’t receive an update, please contact us and let us know.
Also, WP Guardian customers voted and the new feature that will be added for WP Guardian 1.1 will be better Link Management. We’ve already started to work on this feature and will report back soon.
Last Friday’s WP Guardian launch was well received and had an overwhelmingly positive response. We’re very happy so far and have taken some of the initial feedback of customers and started work on the first set of add-on plugins for WP Guardian. They will be priced very fairly and run between $5-15. They will require WP Guardian to function.
The first two add-ons that will be released will be:
- Referrer Control – This add-on will be used to blank and cloak referrers from advertisements. We’re going to make it as easy-to-use as possible and its functionality will be built directly into WP Guardian’s admin interface.
- Registered Users Only – This add-on will allow blog owners to force their visitors to sign-up as WP users to receive access to posts.
Our plan is to release these add-ons as soon as they are finished. We are also planning a release of WP Guardian 1.1 which will include some optimizations and a new feature currently being voted on by current WP Guardian customers. If you’re a customer, definitely join the support forums and get involved in the vote!
Last but not least, FG customers should expect a Forum Generator update by the end of next week. We’ve made a few optimizations and fixed a few bugs that effect some users. The update announcement will be made to the mailing list, forum, as well as posted here on our blog.
As always, if you have any questions, post them as comments here or click that little Questions tab on the left-hand side of your screen.

During our brief absence, we’d like to leave you all with something special from the past:
