All Good Things Must Come To An End

As you all know, I have been doing WordPress plugins and supporting it for the past 6 years. These 6 years of my life, I have been through my polytechnic education, my national service as well as my university education.

I just graduated from university in December 2009 and have been looking for full-time jobs. I am offered a full-time job and will be starting work on 1st February 2010.

I regret to say that I am NOT ABLE to provide support for my plugins anymore due to my full-time job commitment. I will leave this forum open and let the community help one another.

However, I WILL still update my plugins whenever I can and you still can report bugs to me via email and I will try to fix it.

Legacy Table in the database
« on: 09 October 2010, 14:49 »
WP - 2.7
wp-downloadmgr - 1.40

I'm trying to write some reports that access the WordPress database structure, including the WP-DownloadManager plugin.  I thought that the categories were stored in the wp_downloads_map table, but this doesn't seem to be getting updated.  All the categories are in the wp_options table, accessible through the get_options method.

Does anyone know if the wp_downloads_map table obsolete, and a relic from a previous version?

Thanks.

I think you got the wrong plugin. wp_downloads_map is never part of WP DownloadManager

Thanks.  That answers the question perfectly.  I'm going to assume that this was someone's attempt to normalize the serialized data in wp_options for this plugin, and that they either gave up or the method got lost as support for this application was passed from developer to developer. 

Thanks again for the response.
