Welcome Pack 2.0.2

Due out this evening (23rd April), Welcome Pack 2.0.2 will contain a pair of fixes which will correct the filenames of the bundled localisation files, and fix a bug where the text in the email selection menu wasn’t showing the translated text.

Slava kindly contributed the above bug fixes and has sent in a Russian translation, which is cool; thanks very much.

Ray suggested that the username and group name lists should be sorted alphabetically rather than by user ID, which I agree with, so that will also be in the new version.

Welcome Pack 2.0 released

The other day, I released version 2.0 of my Welcome Pack plugin for BuddyPress. The big new feature is the ability to customise the text of the default emails that BuddyPress sends.

For those new to Welcome Pack, check out this intro video:

I haven’t had huge amounts of feedback yet, which probably means I didn’t break anything — always a good sign. There has been a report on the BuddyPress forums from someone running into difficulty with Welcome Pack on a site with over three thousand users; I’m waiting for some feedback from the person concerned and will probably do a minor patch to resolve it.
