digitalFAQ.com Forum - www-Redirect plugin updated for WordPress 3.4.2+ [DOWNLOAD]

www-Redirect Update:

A lot of popular WordPress plugins have not been properly updated for several years now, and contain deprecated code. While the plugin may seem "fine" when its activated in wp-admin, deprecated code often means that it's not functioning properly. This tends to only be noticed when you enable debug mode in the wp-config.php file.

www-Redirect gives the following error when activated:

Code:

Notice: has_cap was called with an argument that is deprecated  since version 2.0! Usage of user levels by plugins and themes is  deprecated. Use roles and capabilities instead. in  X:\...\wp-includes\functions.php on line 2722

Notice: has_cap was called with an argument that is deprecated  since version 2.0! Usage of user levels by plugins and themes is  deprecated. Use roles and capabilities instead. in  X:\...\wp-includes\functions.php on line 2722

This refers to permissions based on user levels (old, wrong) vs permissions based on capabilities (new, correct).

What Was Changed ?

... or you can make the edits yourself.

Line 40 of www-redirect.php refers to user level 1:

Code:

add_submenu_page('plugins.php', __('Redirect Options'), __('Redirect Options'), 1, __FILE__, 'ro_subpanel');

It needs to be changed to reflect an admin capability like activate_plugins():

Code:

add_submenu_page('plugins.php', __('Redirect Options'), __('Redirect Options'), 'activate_plugins', __FILE__, 'ro_subpanel');

And that's it. [x2x]
