Welcome to Geeklog Monday, May 20 2013 @ 04:42 PM EDT
Geeklog is an open source application for managing dynamic web content. It is written in PHP and supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, or MS SQL as the database backend.
"Out of the box", Geeklog is a CMS, or a blog engine with support for comments, trackbacks, multiple syndication formats, spam protection, and all the other vital features of such a system.
The core Geeklog distribution can easily be extended by the many community developed plugins and other add-ons to radically alter its functionality. Available plugins include forums, image galleries, and many more.
Google have announced the 177 organisations that are participating in this year's Google Summer of Code (GSoC). Unfortunately, Geeklog didn't make the cut.
However, we are still participating in GSoC 2013 thanks to The Fedora Project, who generously offered us one of their student slots. Thanks, Fedora!
If you are a student interested in working with Geeklog (and Fedora) in the Google Summer of Code 2013, please have a look at the project ideas we selected, which are listed over on the Fedora Project's ideas list.
The new version of Media Gallery WKZ plugin is available for download.
It is corresponding to Geeklog2.0.0 now, and some fixes are included.
Download the plugin from my site and have fun!
If you need help in setting up or using Geeklog, please see the documentation, the FAQ, the Wiki, try our search page or browse through the Support Forum. Chances are someone else already had the same problem.
