New version of Last.fm records

I have released version 1.5.1 yesterday:

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/lastfm-records/

What has been done?

* complete rewrite, can be used under PHP4 again!
* most of the work is done in javascript, as the php code waited for a response from last.fm which slowed down your weblog
* support for wordpress 2.8/2.8.1, including the automatic updating
* you can set an auto refresh time (in minutes), if you do, the code will go back to last.fm and update the cd covers dynamically in the webpage
* you can specifiy your time offset from GMT
* new stylesheet built, as a starting point for your own splendid work

* the javascript in the zip at the Wordpress Plugin Directory can be used without Wordpress, see

http://jeroensmeets.net/projects/last.fm/

for info and a how to.

There’s still some work to do, and some things have changed:

* the option to use

<?php lastfmrecords_display(); ?>

has been dropped. Please use the javascript call instead.

* the option to use

[ lastfmrecords|overall|4]

in Wordpress pages & posts isn’t working correctly at the moment. Haven’t decided yet what to do about this, have no support requests about this. Anyone using it?

* the offset setting seems broken. Will look into that for version 1.5.4
* using other periods (last week, etc.) will be back in has been added to version 1.5.3
