Geeklog 1.6.0rc1

Announcements

We're getting there: The first Release Candidate for Geeklog 1.6.0 is now available for download.

There were only a few changes over beta 3, mostly in the install script. As the name "release candidate" suggests, we don't expect any more significant changes now, so if you haven't had a chance to try out one of the betas, now would be a good time to give 1.6.0 a test drive before it becomes final.

Other Improvements in Geeklog 1.6.0

Geeklog

Geeklog 1.6.0 brings quite a few obvious improvements (new search, comment improvements, migration support, plugin uploads, XMLSitemap plugin), but also some minor useful changes.

With this article, I'd like to point out two such new features: Support for canonical URLs and output compression.

Geeklog 1.6.0 BETA 3

Announcements

The third beta version of Geeklog 1.6.0 is now available for download.

This version fixes a few more issues with the new search, addresses the XSS reported for the install script, and also includes a more prominent reminder to remove the install script after installation or upgrade.

The main reason for this third beta (instead of it being rc1), however, is the last-minute addition of a new minor security feature to prevent "clickjacking". This feature requires support from the browser, though, and is currently only implemented in IE 8 and Safari 4. Other browsers will surely add support shortly.
