User Role Editor WordPress plugin 3.2beta

User Role Editor 3.2b

Version 3.2 of “User Role Editor” WordPress plugin is near to its release. I invite you to participate in testing cycle. If you have testing WordPress installation, please help to test this version in order to exclude bugs before send it to WordPress repository. I tested it at my developing environment, for single site and multi-site WordPress installations. Be sure however, that you have fresh backup copy of your WordPress database before setup this early version on the production site.
What’s new in version 3.2?
- According to suggestions of multi-site WordPress networks owners “User Role Editor” will automatically duplicate roles from the main blog to every new created blog. Thus, there is not necessary to copy every custom added, modified role from the main blog to the new created one manually.

Netbeans IDE 70 RC2 for PHP

Netbeans IDE 70 RC2 for PHP

08 Apr 2011 NetBeans.org announced that NetBeans IDE 7.0 Release Candidate 2 is available for download. The last testing before the final release (it is planned for April) started. We talked about NetBeans IDE 7.0 here an ShinePHP.com already (check NetBeans posts list). I should make a little correction. I supposed in previous posts that Java 7 is required to install NetBeans IDE 7.0 for PHP. I was wrong. Java SE Development Kit (JDK) 6 Update 24 or later is required for that actually. To be more exact, the PHP NetBeans bundle requires the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 only to be installed and run.
NetBeans IDE 7.0 for PHP installation process for Linux users was described in details here already. It is straightforward and quite simple.
Let’s repeat in short, just to show a process screenshots for the new Release Candidate 2 version:
