    • Plugin Release: List Installed Plugins
      October 5, 2008

      See the List Installed Plugins page for more information and to download.

    • Plugin Update: Static Page eXtended
      October 3, 2008

      Version 2

If you follow the rules inline PHP should work quite well. Note that other plugins that work on post content may interfere with inline includes and php. Get the updated plugin at Wordpress Plugins Directory: Static Page eXtended.

      Note that at last check the WP directory hadn’t yet updated to the new version.
