It is Upgrade Else Die. As I had <a title="2 New Upcoming Plugins for bbPress" href="http://gaut.am/2-new-upcoming-plugins-for-bbpress/">told you before</a>, this plugin is for those who don&#8217;t want to change the CSS of the forums to be suitable for Internet Explorer 6. If the user is using Internet Explorer 6, a warning message displayed to upgrade the browser.<span id="more-100"></span></p><h3>Download: <a title="Upgrade Else Die Plugin for bbPress" href="http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/upgrade-else-die/">http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/upgrade-else-die/</a></h3><h2>About</h2><p>This plugin will place a warning message on the the forum and will be only displayed to IE 6 users and will tell them to upgrade. If they click upgrade button, they will be taken the the upgrade page of IE. If they click No Thanks, then they will be sent to CrashIE which uses a well known bug of IE 6 to crash it. The plugin is inspired from the <a title="Upgrade Else Die Plugin for WordPress" onclick="window.location='http://gaut.am/extshare.php?tourl=http://eight7teen.com/upgrade-else-die/&amp;fromurl=http://gaut.am/2009/08/2-new-upcoming-plugins-for-bbpress/&amp;fromtitle=2 New Upcoming Plugins for bbPress&amp;blogurl=http://gaut.am&amp;blogtitle=Gautam';return false;" href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/upgrade-else-die/">Upgrade Else Die</a> Plugin for WordPress made by Josh.</p><p>This is a screenshot of the warning message displayed:</p><p><img title="Upgrade Else Die for bbPress - Preview when Forum Viewed in Internet Explorer 6" src="http://gaut.am/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/uedss.png" alt="Upgrade Else Die for bbPress - Preview when Forum Viewed in Internet Explorer 6" width="541" height="488" /></p><h2>FAQ</h2><p><strong>Where&#8217;s the options page?</strong></p><p>This plugin is quite simple, and therefore doesn’t need any configurable options. Just upload the plugin, activate, and rest easy knowing that IE6 is officially banned from your site.</p><p><strong>What do you mean  by &#8220;it will crash their browser&#8221;?</strong></p><p>The “No Thanks” button is a link to <a title="Crash Internet Explorer 6" href="http://crashIE.com/">CrashIE</a> (don’t click that link if you’re using IE 7 or lower). CrashIE uses a well known bug in IE to their advantage and exploits it with no mercy. The bug is simple, and it’s not a “critical” crash. It will simply show the user the ever famous “Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close” message. After that, they’ll have to close the browser and start all over.</p><h2>Download</h2><p>You can download the plugin <a title="Upgrade Else Die Plugin for bbPress" href="http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/upgrade-else-die/">here</a>.<a title="Upgrade Else Die Plugin for bbPress" href="http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/upgrade-else-die/"></a></p><p>Please do not forget to <a title="Donate to Gautam" onclick="window.location='http://gaut.am/extshare.php?tourl=https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&amp;hosted_button_id=6590760&amp;fromurl=http://gaut.am/2009/08/social-it-plugin-for-bbpress/&amp;fromtitle=Social It Plugin for bbPress&amp;blogurl=http://gaut.am&amp;blogtitle=Gautam';return false;" href="http://gaut.am/donate/">donate</a> for the plugin.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://gaut.am/upgrade-else-die-plugin-for-bbpress/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>2 New Upcoming Plugins for bbPress</title><link>http://gaut.am/2-new-upcoming-plugins-for-bbpress/</link> <comments>http://gaut.am/2-new-upcoming-plugins-for-bbpress/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 06 Aug 2009 15:12:04 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Gautam</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Open Source]]></category> <category><![CDATA[bbPress]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Easy Twitter Links]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Plugin]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Upgrade Else DIE]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://gaut.am/?p=75</guid> <description><![CDATA[Hey there!

I am going to release two more plugins for bbPress! One of them is Upgrade Else Die and the second is Easy Twitter Links. Both plugins are inspired from the ones made by <a title="Blog2Life - Website by Josh" href="http://blog2life.net/">Josh</a> for WordPress.<span id="more-75"></span></p><h2>Upgrade Else Die</h2><p><img class="size-full wp-image-78 alignleft" title="Rip Internet Explorer 6" src="http://gaut.am/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/ripie.gif" alt="Rip Internet Explorer 6" width="122" height="132" />There are so many people who hate Internet Explorer 6, and do not want to maintain their website&#8217;s look for IE 6. This plugin is specially made for those people. This plugin will place a warning message on the the forum and will be only displayed to IE 6 users and will tell them to upgrade. If they click upgrade button, they will be taken the the upgrade page of IE. If they click No Thanks, then they will be sent to CrashIE which uses a well known bug of IE 6 to crash it. The plugin is inspired from the <a title="Upgrade Else Die Plugin for WordPress" href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/upgrade-else-die/">Upgrade Else Die</a> Plugin for WordPress made by Josh.</p><h2>Easy Twitter Links</h2><p>Easy Twitter Links plugin automatically links @example_username to a Twitter user, and #hashtag to Twitter search link. For example, if you post @gautam_2011, it would become a link like <a title="Gautam&#039;s Profile on Twitter" href="http://twitter.com/#!/_GautamGupta_">@Gaut_am</a> and if you post #bbpress, it would become <a title="#bbpress at Twitter" href="http://twitter.com/#!/search?q=%23bbpress">#bbpress</a>. The links will also have rel=&#8221;nofollow&#8221; and target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; so that your site&#8217;s link juice doesn&#8217;t get leaked into the popular social networking website Twitter <img src='http://gaut.am/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /> . This plugin is inspired from the <a title="Easy Twitter Links Plugin for WordPress" href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/easy-twitter-links/">EZ Twitter Links</a> Plugin for WordPress made by Josh. Here is a screenshot below:</p><p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-80" title="Easy Twitter Links" src="http://gaut.am/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/extwitterlinks.png" alt="Easy Twitter Links" width="344" height="165" /></p><p>Also, I will be releasing Social It 1.2 soon with some new features and bug fixes.
