[1.0.12]: August 29, 2011
- (Fixed) Some Security vulnerabilities
- (Fixed) Support of Full compatibility of WP DS FAQ plugin.
-- Since version 1.0.9, a part of compatibility was lost because the sort function was established.
-- In case of version between 1.0.9 and 1.0.11-1, if you deactivate WP DS FAQ Plus and activate
   WP DS FAQ, all FAQ datas are disappeared because the display mode setting is unrecognized by WP
   DS FAQ. Of course, you re-check the mode setting, the data will be appeared.
-- In this time, new database item called "custom_mode" in dsfaq_name table was created.
   the special settings for WP DS FAQ Plus are read/written to this item.
   Then, the display mode setting is written to mode and custom_mode.
   therefore, you can use WP DS FAQ and WP DS FAQ Plus in same database.
-- Of course, please don't activate both of  WP DS FAQ and WP DS FAQ plus.

[1.0.12-1]: August 30, 2011
- (Fixed) Cannot add new category.

[1.0.13]: September 14, 2011 (Added New function of latest FAQ list)
- (Fixed) Some Security vulnerabilities, but you don't need to worry because this fix is 
          for multi protection.
- (Fixed) Design of FAQ category title
-- Please check "Text before and Text after the FAQ book name in FAQ setting menu.
- (Fixed) Improvement of TimeZone processing. (Establishment of "convert_timezone_data" function)
-- About 1.0.12-1 or earlier version (from 1.0.1), the timezone was tentatively held on
   "Asia/Tokyo". I'm sorry that I forgot... But you don't need to worry because there are not any
   influences except the display of last modified date in admin menu. 
   In this version, the date information is very important because of adding "latest FAQ list".
   Therefore, I drastically coped with about TimeZone processing by creating new date convert function. 
-- About the timezone setting, please check "TIMEZONE" in Wordpress setting menu.
-- Especially, this version follows a timezone of manual offset (UTF+9). Unfortunately, "date_i18n"
   function (Wordpress 3.x) does not support manual offset.
     * My original "convert_timezone_data" function is the following conversions.
       - In case of using PHP5.2 or above version, original conversion is carried out.
       - In case of using PHP5.1 or earlier version:
        -- If "date_i18n" function is found out, the function will be used.
        -- Else, the conversion won't be carried out.
-- (Improvement) Added TIMEZONE information to date in FAQ input menu.
-- (Fixed) First category does not display in the FAQ sub menu.
- (Added) New Function of latest FAQ List.
-- Added [dsfaq latest="10" latest_format="li/dl/table"] option to shortcode.
-- The design and layout of FAQ display data including latest FAQ list can be changed
   in "wp-ds-faq-plus.css" file.
-- * About the detail information, please see "FAQ setting menu" in Wordpress "Settings" menu.

[1.0.14]: September 22, 2011
- (Fixed) In case of editing a FAQ data from front page, "Ajax error" was displayed when "Cancel" 
          or "Save" button was pushed". Even if "Ajax error" was displayed, the data processing could
          be doing.  
- (Improvement) In case of using the table format in latest list function, the title of each item is displayed.

* Issues or Plan
Sorry, I don't have Javascript technical skill in the high level, so if you can fix the issues, please contact me.

1. Import and Export menu for settings.

2. Bug of Editing button.
-- You click "Edit" button in document A and click "Edit" button in document B.
   Then, if you edit document A and save it, the data will be overwritten by  document B.

3. There is not the delete confirmation function...
  Now, when the Delete button is clicked, the data will be lost without conformation.
  This is very afraid....

-   By upgrading 1.0.11, you can tentatively avoid this issue. 

4. Multi-language for Question.
