Thanks for the tip! One of the security features I have applied is faking the version of WP (I changed it to 5.5 in my version.php file) so that hackers can't see what version of WP I am using. This fix is exactly what I needed to Simple Tags working for me. I simply used this code to get it to work in WP 2.7. } elseif ( strpos($wp_version, '5.5') !== false || strpos($wp_version, '5.5') !== false ) { require(dirname(__FILE__).'/2.7/simple-tags.client.php');

Thanks, this was really important for my blog. The simple tags developer has updated a 2.7 compatible version but it doesn't seem to work for me and a large number of people running wp 2.7, but instead, this simple change of code works 100%. Thanks so much!

I don't see many people updating core php files. There is no reason why you need to modify core php files of the plugins.

^^ The plug-in was not updated at the time of posting this tutorial. Also lots of blogger don't want to update their existing plug-ins because it'll overwrite their custom settings which they incorporated by editing the PHP file itself.

Yes, why you don't just update the plugin? The update for 2.7 is avaiable since several days!
