David, I’m sorry, that I didn’t reply yet. I’ve got my Master Degree Exams these weeks, so I had no time to test it yet. I’ll test it this weekend, so you’ll have an answer before sunday evening.

Hi Marnem,

Is there an easy way for me to test pingbacks and trackbacks? Would you allow me to post from your site to debug it? Also, try the latest version and see if you still have the problem.

I just noticed, that your Plugin has one serious flaw:
All Pingbacks to all categories became blocked and didn’t show up in my Blog or in Akismet.

I don’t know if category access will work in Wordpress 2.3, but I think it’s a very handy Plugin and would appreciate it, if you could fix this Pingback Bug.

Thank you for your work anyways

Thanks. This plugin is really usefull, and finding it made me happy. I used to use Category Visibility, but it ceased to work and luckily I found this little gem Together with Group Restriction plugin this provides me with good access control tools.

The only thing I am really missing would be access rules based on roles (such as anonymous, subscriber, author, administrator and possibly custom roles generated by Role Manager).

Hi!

I had the same problem as hauke and I do use the german wordpress version too. I did search for more than one hour in the code, to find the flaw and I found none. The only way to solve the problem is to delete the german translation files, because everything works perfect, if the english words are shown.
The only difference seems to be, that the english version calls the submit-button ‘value=”Update Options”‘ and in german it says ‘value=”Einstellungen übernehmen”‘. I guess the “ü” in “übernehmen” might be the problem. Most other Plugins call it “aktualisieren” to avoid the Umlaut.

By the way, thank you for the plugin

Did you press the “update options” button at the bottom of the config screen? What are your other options set to? Did you try disabling any other plugins?

HI David,
I’m using the latest german Version of wordpress, mysql 5.0 and php 5.2.3 on a Windows XP System.
Best regards,
Hauke

Hi,
i use this version and i seem to be unable to change the default categories for the anonymous user, if i set a default category a guest still can’t see it.
Maybe i’m doing something wrong?!
