Hi everyone,

We're pleased to announce the latest version of the WordPress Mobile Pack, version 1.1.1.

The full details and new download are on wordpress.org itself.

In summary, the new features are:

* Tested support for WordPress v2.8.1
* Improved tolerance of permissions issues at install
* Ability to force the upgrade of themes at install
* Deep-link QR-codes to the page you're on
* User can override detection-only switching
* Switcher race conditions avoided
* Mobile teaser now overrules 'more' break
* Support for Nintendo and Novarra mobile user agents
* PHP4 support
* Numerous minor bug fixes

Overall, this release was mostly about making sure the plugin works with the latest version of WordPress, consolidating some of the issues that we were hearing from you about installation and switcher configurations. But we squeezed in a few little features too.

Read the full list of development activities we completed here.

If you have manually edited any of the plugin files, be aware that the upgrade may overwrite your work, so take appropriate precautions. The v1.1.1 plugin will also prompt you as to whether you want to also overwrite the v1.0 mobile themes. Reapply any previous alterations you may have made if you do.

We'd love to hear your feedback and any experiences you have with the plugin. We know thousands of you are downloading and using it, so it's important to get it as good as possible.

As for the roadmap of what happens next... we have 1.2 release scheduled for later in the summer, and we expect that to add a bunch of new features.

If you want to help out with the development of the plugin, please volunteer! The current team is listed here.

Enjoy it! And let us know how it goes.

James
