Hello Haw Thanks for looking at this cautiously. Your comments drove me back to the Time.ly site and WP Plugin directory to conduct a more thorough view.
The Kubuntu Council identified time.ly as the most appropriate solution for the programme of community events we are organising. Hopefully my additional findings below, will address the concerns such that we can go ahead an install it ? I looked through the 1 star reviews, what I found were mostly Social Plugin issues, Facebook, Twitter, or specific theme conflict issues. I also noticed that these were quite old. I checked in on the 5 star reviews, and there seemed some good recent ones. I then checked time.ly site for more details, and I found details of current updates and support Version: 2.5.26 Last updated: 3 weeks ago Active installs: 100,000+ Requires WordPress Version:3.5 Tested up to: 4.8.2 I note that our installation version of Word Press is 4.8.2 I checked the vulnerability DB via the link you sent ( thanks ) and I found 7601 - 1.4 & 1.5 Multiple XSS - fixed in version 1.8.2 6318 - wp-admin/post-new.php Multiple Parameter XSS - fixed in version 1.10 6319 - 1.9 - index.php Multiple Parameter SQL Injection - fixed in version 1.10 I checked the details on their Support Provision :- Issues resolved in last two months: 130 out of 138 Hello Welcome to our forum First we thank you for using the Timely Calendar!
