Bookkeeping v.0.1 — October 10th, 2007, 3PM
Uncategorized
This is the first public release of this plugin, and it’s not very polished yet. But it does work! Download it from wordpress.org now, and let me know what needs fixing.
I’ve been using it pretty much as-is for the past six months or so, and there are a few features that I would like, and will be implementing soon:
- Select-lists for categories, based on previously-entered categories. This way, to add a new category will simple entail typing it into the box, but at the same time the user will be presented with a list of categories they’ve used in the past. I’m just not yet sure how things should work upon first installing the plugin, because it’s probably a bit confusing at the moment. Any suggestions?
- Export. To everything. Latex (and, by extensions, PDF), XML (but what formats?), and stand-alone HTML, are all that I particularly want. This would be good for backup too, of course.
- I was thinking of tying transactions to Addressbook entries (optionally of course) but I’m not sure that it’s very useful.
I was at one point planning on a whole ledger/accounts/etc. structure, but then it sort of gets off into the realm of bigger and better financial management programmes, and it seems somewhat out of scope. This is really just a personal, or sole-trader, sort of a thing.
So send in your comments! (Oh, and by the way, Richard, there’s also ‘subbookkeeper’ with four pairs of letters.)

Thanks Sam about the subbookkeeper – excellent.
I thought I would let you know that I got your plugin loaded and working on a new upgraded server running php 5.2. My other server is still running php 5.0. I am using it but am a bit confused by the invoice thing and wonder if I am using it right. It has two drop down menus one to say who it is from and one to say who it is to. Now what I don’t understand is when I put from Cregy to whoever, nothing happens when I press generate invoice. Is something meant to happen please?
Thanks.
Excellent programme and I hope you will allow it to develop a bit more.

hello, tried activating the plugin using wp 2.3.1 and got this error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function: date_default_timezone_set() in /var/www/web6/web/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/bookkeeping/bookkeeping.php on line 85
now I have to delete the plugin, as I get the error whatever page I try to access via the backend…

date_default_timezone_set()is part of PHP 5, and I guess you’re both (commenters #2 & #3) running something earlier. I’ll fix it; that shouldn’t even be in there, anyway. Sorry.[permalink]
Hello, How do I get to the Image management configuration options page? I dont see anything under settings.
Under Widgets I see a Image Flicker option, but it has no options.
Thanks

I think this can be a great plugin, but I don’t think it’s working properly on the latest version of WordPress.
Do you think you may update this plugin? That’ll be great.
Thanks in advanced :-)
