FAQ for OneClick at Thought Outflux

Isn’t this like pluginstaller, this plugin that allows installing more plugins?
Ans: Yes, essentially it does the same thing, but pluginstaller does it by using shell commands, which are only for *nix based hosts. Also several hosts disable this because of security concerns. It also doesn’t install themes(though it’ll just take 10 mins to modify it to let it do so). There’s support for updating of plugins, but only if installed from wordpress.org. Deletion is not supported.
What about Matt Read’s old installer plugin.
Ans: Matt Read’s moved over to habari development (I was working on habari for a while and I moved back to wordpress), but his plugin is lost now, and I have to contact him to try the plugin out for myself and see what it can do.
I can’t delete files from FTP that are created from the PHP due to sharing permissions or something.
Ans: Delete anything and everything from the deletion system inside the plugin.
When will the next version be out?
Ans: After I’ve sorted some academics out, in other words, in about three or four weeks.
