Simple Tagging Plugin works with 2.6.1

I use a plugin for WordPress called Simple Tagging.  Unfortunately it doesn’t appear to be maintained at the moment.  I don’t like running un-supported code, but I’m not willing to look for a new tagging system yet.

However, it appears to work just fine if you change the version checking in the php file itself.  I would NEVER recommend you do this for a large site, but if you’re running a small blog like me, you might have use for this.

Edit your simple-tags.php which is found in your wp-content/plugins/simple-tags directory and find this line:

if ( strpos($wp_version, ’2.5′) !== false ) {

replace the 5 with a 6 and you’re back in business(if you’re running 2.6.)

The new line looks like this:

if ( strpos($wp_version, ’2.6′) !== false ) {
