You might want to have a quick look at the Writing Secure WordPress Plugins article. Not sure how applicable it is to the Hebrew date plugin.

Mike,
You might want to have a look at the enhancements I recently made to the Jewish date code in PhpGedView. Have a look at http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/phpgedview/trunk/phpGedView/includes/functions_date_hebrew.php?sortby=date&view=log
The main change was to use a geresh and gershayim instead of single and double quotes. There are many issues that can come up when using quotes within code, and this solves some of them. Also removed was the span wrapper. The geresh and gershayim use also resolves some directionality issues.

Fair enough Tonight is my night off, so if I feel like it, I'll see if can do something with my own plugin, using ofcourse some of yours

Glad you remembered, and no, I didn't forget.

That said, it's going to be a (hopefully short) while, though. I have one or two personal things going on these days that are taking up most of my time, and I'm a little reluctant to add too much more new code before cleaning up some of the cruft that's there now.

Thanks Mike! A separate set of options would be the preferred thing to have, yes. I'll wait for the new code. As for updating code, I've decided that my plugin could also use a make-over, so, besided the small fix I've added today, I'm going to expand it a little…

Gotcha. In other words, you want to have a separate set of options for the formatted HebrewDate from hebrewDateCurrent (distinct from those used by the wrapper for post & comment dates).

Shouldn't be a big deal, but I'm kinda busy at the moment. I'm also working on rewriting much of the code; if you don't see a post from me by, say, Tuesday (post Purim), feel free to bug me again

Mike,

My mistake. Without arguments, that function displays the same as my own. But what I want is it to display the current date in full hebrew. Like if you set the options for that plugin to 'Hebrew months' and without the use of Arabic numbers.

The problem is that I want that kinda display only when using the hebrewDateCurrent() and not under the titles of posts. So, I cannot use the options for that.

I hope this explanation is somewhat clearer…
