ExpressionEngine 2.0 and add-ons
Friday, August 7th, 2009
With ExpressionEngine version 2.0 now in beta the aim of this post is to set out the upgrade process for this site’s add-ons.
EllisLab have made no secret that the architectural changes in EE2.0 have made the upgrade a time-consuming task, and the same will be true for 3rd party add-ons.
I’ve been fortunate enough to have been given access to the developer preview and the current beta release of the next version of ExpressionEngine, so progress towards converting my add-ons has already started.
Of the add-ons available from this site, I intend to upgrade the following:
- Client Download
- Followers
- FeedGrab
- CSVGrab
- XMLGrab
- Selected Items
- PurgeData
and I also hope to have 1 or 2 new add-ons ready to release by that time.
The upgrades to my commercial add-ons (currently Client Downloads and Followers) will be made available free of charge to those who have purchased the current version.
Please contact me if you have any questions.
