Quick Contact For Wordpress http://quickcontact.squarecompass.com A Quick and Simple way to add a Contact Form to your Wordpress blog! Sat, 27 Feb 2010 08:00:11 +0000 en hourly 1 New Update – v0.5.3 http://quickcontact.squarecompass.com/2010/new-update-v0-5-3/ http://quickcontact.squarecompass.com/2010/new-update-v0-5-3/#comments Sat, 27 Feb 2010 07:56:34 +0000 Cary Snowden http://quickcontact.squarecompass.com/?p=465

We made a small update to help quell the Ajax errors.

We received some comments about Ajax problems and learned that some of you were having trouble on the ‘submit’ part of the plugin. We discovered that Internet Explorer was having trouble with our chaining. To optimize for speed and efficiency, we combined several commands in our scripting. Think of this as asking your friend to run to the store to pick up ‘milk, eggs and bread’ all in one trip. That’s ‘chaining’.

What we discovered is that Internet Explorer was having a problem getting all the items in a single trip, and would rather that we only ask for one thing at a time: ‘go to the store, get milk, come back, repeat for eggs…’

We’re pretty sure this is the reason many of you were experiencing Ajax errors, and ‘errors on submit’. This small update should fix the problem and has performed well in our testing.

Give it a try and let us know what you think

FAQ Builder for WordPress Unofficial Release (updated) http://quickcontact.squarecompass.com/2009/faq-builder-for-wordpress-unofficial-release/ http://quickcontact.squarecompass.com/2009/faq-builder-for-wordpress-unofficial-release/#comments Sat, 07 Nov 2009 00:04:36 +0000 Cary Snowden http://quickcontact.squarecompass.com/?p=459 Square Compass has unofficially launched a new plugin for WordPress called FAQ Builder for WordPress.

FAQ Builder for WordPress PluginFAQ Builder for WordPress is a great way to add and manage Frequently Asked Questions on your WordPress blog.

It provides an easy way for your site visitors to ask questions, and an administration tool that allows you to add, edit, and answer those questions before posting to your site.

We included the ability to manage categories, define which questions appear on your FAQ page, which questions are available in the handy search tool (but not displayed), and which questions you’d rather not present to the public at all.

You can download FAQ Builder for WordPress from our site before it is approved by WordPress for inclusion in the WordPress Plugins Directory. We have presented it to the folks at WordPress for review and are anxious to hear back from them. We’ll keep you posted.

UPDATE: We have been accepted into the WordPress Plugin Directory!

FAQ Builder is the latest of three terrific plugins from Square Compass.

FAQ Builder for WordPress
Business Directory for WordPress

Version 0.5.1 Beta – One Character Off http://quickcontact.squarecompass.com/2009/version-0-5-1-beta-one-character-off/ http://quickcontact.squarecompass.com/2009/version-0-5-1-beta-one-character-off/#comments Tue, 22 Sep 2009 15:44:30 +0000 jpatterson http://quickcontact.squarecompass.com/?p=439 We discovered some erroneous behavior in the phone number validation which we traced down to a single missing character in our code. As such we have released version 0.5.1 Beta with the following improvement/fix:

  • Improved Phone Validation.

The new version should be live within the next few hours and should appear in the auto-update then. See our updating instructions if you need help updating Quick Contact.

And We’re Off! http://quickcontact.squarecompass.com/2009/and-were-off/ http://quickcontact.squarecompass.com/2009/and-were-off/#comments Mon, 21 Sep 2009 22:19:58 +0000 Cary Snowden http://quickcontact.squarecompass.com/?p=427 blastoffWe received word today that we have been approved by Team WordPress, and have been received into the official WordPress Plugin Directory.

Have a look at our Quick Contact plugin and tell us what you think. It is intended to be simple, easy, and (hopefully) pain-free. We developed this for a project we have been working on and we have been quite pleased with its performance. We have not tested it for every server configuration, nor do we plan to. If it works for you, please let us know with some feedback on our blog, or a rating. If it doesn’t work for you, let us know what you have experienced.

Thanks for stopping by!
