How to make geeklog more professional

Authored by: Remdotc on Monday, July 01 2002 @ 02:54 pm EDT

First off, I would like to state, I think geeklog is great. If it wasnt, I wouldnt be using it for the basis of turning my website to a dynamic using php.

I. Code
A. From a new coder point of view, your comment system is good, but could be better.
Varribles found in most group collabrative software, are all doccumented before used, Case in point, lib-common.php vs config.php. While config.php is really well written, lib-common is a jungle, making the lives of anyone who wants to add, change, or extend a class, difficult at best
B. Hook & Forks for dummies
Most people call this \"custom coding\", or hacks, to the software. While most people who use software do like to tinker with the code, there are a lot of newbie programers, or Newbies to php (cough...cough) that havent had, or dont know the answers to what are the most common questions . While this board is good, opens up a lot od discussion and is really helpful, Perhaps a step by step or how-to\'s

II. Doccumentation.
A. The default doccumentation that comes with geeklog is way out of date. General rule of thumb is, if its old or wrong, don\'t distribute it, instead just leave a readme file that says. Go to this website for online doccumentation, or update it.
