Announcements

The second Release Candidate for Geeklog 1.3.10 is now available for download. It fixes are variety of (mostly minor) bugs in rc1 and also addresses the email problems some users were having (the complete list of changes since rc1 can be found in docs/history).

Please give it a try, but keep in mind that it's still not the final version yet. To upgrade from 1.3.10rc1, please see the enclosed list of changed files in docs/changed-files. There were no database changes, so you only have to replace the files that have changed.

We'll give this Release Candidate a bit more time now so as to find the remaining problems and also give the translators a chance to catch up.

You fixed the bad form's action in mail.php (i.e. no longer php_self).

Thanks!

In block.php the images references for left and right blocks need to be switched places.

Auto Archive
Authored by: jhwhite on Tuesday, October 26 2004 @ 03:13 PM EDT
It's never the case that I'd want to Auto Archive the moment I publish the story, so I added $_CONF['expiredate'] to config.php and changed public_html/admin/story.php line 175 to 
$A['expiredate'] = time() + 
$_CONF['expiredate'];
which sets the default archive date to a specific interval in the future. I'd really like to have an archive topic that's open to everyone, but doesn't appear on the front page. Is that possible, or is that GL2?

By Default,

The story archive is not enabled. I'm not sure I understand your question or issue.

Ok, maybe I was getting too excited about the archive feature then. For my site, I'd like

  • to be able to have archiving on by default for 12 months from the posting date of the story
  • once the story is archived, for it to appear only in the Archive topic

I can achieve the first feature through some hacks to public_html/admin/story.php. The second would be handled in public_html/index.php but I'm lost on how to make it happen. The idea is when you transfer a story to the archive topic, also set it to not appear on the front page.

Is there a timeframe for the story archive feature or anything I can do to contribute?

Auto Archive
Authored by: Blaine on Wednesday, October 27 2004 @ 01:43 PM EDT
The Story Archive feature is new and working in this new release. It's not enabled by default when creating a story was what I meant to say earlier and it's enabled by the editor on a story by story.

It will either auto-delete or move it to a topic of choice. If this topic is hidden from normal users its like being offline or it can be a topic called "Archived Content" that members can see.

Having it default to now+1 year should be a simple mod to story.php.

Ok, that's how I had it. But our site has 72 pages of stories on the front page, and we would like to keep archived stories open to all visitors. So I added , frontpage = 0 to public_html/ index.php so it reads

DB_query ("UPDATE 
{$_TABLES['stories']} SET tid = '$archivetid' , frontpage = 0 WHERE 
sid='{$sid}'");

so when a story gets archived, it only gets shown in the archive topic.

Authored by: Blaine on Wednesday, October 27 2004 @ 04:54 PM EDT
That may be a better default way to have it anyways. Most will not want it on the frontpage if it should be archived - would be my assumption now as well. I think we can make this change.

And I want to reiterate, I really like the whole project and addition of the
archive feature. Thanks for all that you've done. I would like to help if I
can.

That's a bug in the File Management plugin then. We're actually still on an older version (1.2) here and I think Blaine already fixed that one in 1.3.

It seems your MySQL user doesn't have permissions to lock tables. Try asking your hosting service for help.

Its just as Mr Dirk said:
"It seems your MySQL user doesn't have permissions to lock tables. Try asking your hosting service for help."

Its nothing wrong with Geeklog, only the user: it was problem with the host (also the album problems).

Is it just me, or is there a problem with the menu items? Setting site
statistics to require login in config.php, the link still shows up in the menu
even when I am logged out. This is not what I would expect.

Using GL version 1.3.10rc2, professional theme.

Cheers,

Euan.

In COM_renderMenu in lib-common.php, should this line:

if( !empty( $url ) && !empty( $label ))

not be more like this?

if( !empty( $url ) && !empty( $label ) && $allowed)

Cheers,

That's actually the difference between {menu_elements} and {allowed_menu_elements}. The latter only displays those entries that the current user has access to.

I think there is no Content-Type line in header.thtml as follows.

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset={charset}">

Without this line, Japanese environment has trouble showing pages.

Thank you.

Sorry, it is my mistakes.

I should edit config.php correctly.

Now it works just fine!
Error in calendar.php

Line 815 of calendar.php is missing a slash:

. $_CONF['site_url'] . 'calendar.php?view=day&amp;'

Should be

. $_CONF['site_url'] . '/calendar.php?view=day&amp;'

Cheers,

I'm having issues with the rewrite support, when its enabled.. EVERYTHING uses rewrite, including all the admin urls, static pages, but only the actual articles work -- the others 404. Is there some things that need to be added to my .htaccess? or should i get rid of my.htaccess all together? or is there something that needs to be setup on the server?

okey, adding to this, i think i'm missing some .htaccess stuff or something.. i commented out the line in my .htaccess which i had from long ago that rewrite the article.php/ to article.php?sid= style urls, and now that doesn't work, so at least its consistant.

We don't actually use apache's built in rewrite module anymore (we used it only briefly). So you shouldn't need anything in your .htaccess anymore. We now use a PHP environmental variable to get the effect of rewritten URLs.

Can you post the (non-sensitive) contents of your .htaccess?

the rewrite stuff only works for me if i use this:

RewriteEngine   on
RewriteRule     ^article.php/(.*)       /article.php?story=$1

Nope, I think only 4.3.0 and 4.3.1 had the problems with PATH_INFO that I was thinking of. Try creating a page "info.php" that contains:

<?php phpinfo() ?>

They try to access the page by:
http://yoursite/info.php/this/is/path/info

They check for the variable PATH_INFO. It should contain "this/is/path/info".

Images in plain-text articles

Good morning ;-)

This has been reported and discussed before and is caused by the (failed) attempt to make URLs in plain-text posting clickable, i.e. detect URLs and turn them into links. This will be fixed in 1.3.10rc3.
