Ouch! I upgraded to WP 2.6 and my older videos (52 all told) still work as they are supposed to but I cannot enter anything new. I tried installing the Wranger plugin and the same. I've had to use the Blip embed code to get things working but miss my SIAB.
Anybody know what I'm doing wrong or what I can do to fix things?

I was just talking to Verdi, and he discovered that vPIP doesn't work with WP2.6. The old data is fine and works, but new posts don't get saved to the database.
Verdi talked to Enric about it, I believe. So now we wait for a fix to vPIP. And think again about how it would be helpful if there were more wordpress developers working with us on these tools.
Meanwhile, if you use vPIP and Wordpress, do NOT upgrade to WP 2.6.
WP 2.5.1 works just fine, so use that instead.
Perhaps if you are already using 2.6, you can roll back to 2.5.1 — but check the Wordpress support forums first to see if that's possible. It's easy to switch out the files, of course, but I don't know if the database will get confused or not.
damn, i too have already upgraded to 2.6, but as i'm not a weekly post-er i haven't noticed any issues.
Since there is a fix in the works i'd like to point out that i have never been able to use the feeds that vPIP renders for each media (iPod etc) from the settings/vPIP_config page.
Here's my iPod feed as rendered by vPIP: http://kmogvideo.net/blog/wp-content/plugins/vPIP/vPIPFeed.php?blogURL=http://kmogvideo.net&media=vs-title%3A+iPod
Yeah, I should have posted about it here the other day - sorry about that. I let Enric know about it. He said he might get a chance to look at it today or early this week I think.

I was able to get one post working and then I activated Related Videos. I have not been able to get a new post working all day today. Here's hoping Enric can get this fixed shortly.
Also, Firefox on a Mac is not letting me log into my site site. It doesn't recognize the user name and password. I have no problems using Safari.
John, i was having the exact same issue, but the other way around, (couldn't log in using safari), i rebooted my comp and all was fine so just try that.

Hi Krystian, thanks for suggesting this. I did try it earlier and glad to know we are on the same page. I re-booted and used 2 different Macs...still to no avail. I only have one video up now...just starting out. I think what I'll do is delete everything, and rebuild using 2.5.1. Won't be so quick on the trigger with WP upgrades next time :-)
I started to look into this. I'll let you know when an update to vPIP is ready.
Thanks Enric!
Welcome. I should make some progress when I have time this evening.
New vPIP (1.13i) for Wordpress is up at:
http://wiki.vpip.org/index.php?title=Wordpress_Install
in my tests on Wordpress 2.6 it looked to work ok. I've also changed the way the table of media entries are sorted so it should be more stable when they're moved to a different order.
Works perfectly for me! Thanks again Enric.
Sorry guys but I just downloaded the current install from http://wiki.vpip.org/index.php?title=Wordpress_Install and on my 2.6 and when I activated was presented with the following error.

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare _vpip_options_page() (previously declared in /home/.ezmerelda/xtremerecruitingtv/xtremerecruiting.tv/wp-content/plugins/vpip-videos-playing-in-place/vPIP/vPIP.php:63) in /home/.ezmerelda/xtremerecruitingtv/xtremerecruiting.tv/wp-content/plugins/vPIP/vPIP.php on line 678
Hey bill, did you try adding the code into the header page as explained by Enric on the download page, hopefully that will fix the issue (even though i didn't have to do this myself).
Having issues with my general categories on the post page, unable to select them (looks odd) i believe it's unrelated to vPIP though as it's the same when i temporarily deactivated the plug in. Maybe i botched the upgrade.
Hey Bill,
It looks like you have two installs of vPIP:
1) /home/.ezmerelda/xtremerecruitingtv/xtremerecruiting.tv/wp-content/plugins/vpip-videos-playing-in-place/vPIP
2) /home/.ezmerelda/xtremerecruitingtv/xtremerecruiting.tv/wp-content/plugins/vPIP/
Remove the older one (or disable it in the Wordpress plugins page) and you should be ok.

Thanks Enric - I found both Wrangler and two vPip installs on my server. I deleted all of them. I uploaded the new vPip and all of my videos are now gone meaning I have to go back and enter them one by one. Very frustrating.
I think I'll stick with the native Blip player for the time being and take a look at vPip down the road.
I'm not sure how or why but I went back and tried the vPip one more time and everything worked??? Somehow in all of this I lost my archives but I'm working on getting that up and running as well so I'm once more a happy SIAB camper.
Bill,
If you can look at your database for the blog, you may see your archive there and be able to hook it back up.
