Ludo announced the first beta for WPFF 1.0.0 a few weeks ago, and the second beta is now available. I finally found some free time to fix my test site and upgrade to the lastest & greatest.

The latest version is more polished since my last review and offers a few new features, including:

• Full search capabilities, complete with a custom template and a search term highlighter. Great job on this one, Ludo!
• Atom feeds and category-based feeds.
• Author pages.
• Basic comment formatting.
• Plus a bunch of small tweaks and bug fixes since the 0.99 betas.

I’ve just sent Ludo another small patch today that increases WPFF’s compatibility with WordPress. Hopefully the patch make it into the next beta, slated for release tomorrow. The changes are intended to allow you to use your existing .htaccess file generated by WordPress. I want to make sure that it’s easy to make the switch, so watch out for ports of popular WP plugins too.
