Minor update online

Wednesday Nov 14, 2007

Today a minor pixyBlog update went online.  The update includes some bug fixes and improvements, improved handling for domains/URL's and a new theme for our users.

Bug fixes:

  • Comments emails to authors include a comment management link which previously didn't work.  Thanks to Joe for reporting this.
  • Under certain conditions, deleting of an entry could cause an error for that photoblog.  This has now been fixed.
  • Some users were reporting missing photos on the 'Thumbnails' page; this bug has now been fixed.

Minor improvements:

  • In our discussion group a number of users have requested to remove the 'Login' link from the page menu.  This use to be difficult to change, but our users can now simply change a parameter in their #showPageMenu($website $showSearch $showLogin) macro (usually found in the '_header' template) to show/hide the 'Login' link.  To show the Login link, set the value of $showLogin to true.

URL and domain handling improvements:

  • Again, from requests posted in our discussion group the following improvements to how we handle URL's and users own domain names.
    • Now http://www.demo.pixyblog.com will redirect to http://demo.pixyblog.com so that visitors are not lost when the 'www' has been added.
    • Users with their own domain can still access their photoblog on the original pixyblog.com domain.  E.g. http://oldarmstrong.pixyblog.com will redirect to http://photos.oldarmstrong.com.  This will help keep links and visitors coming to your site when you change over to using your own domain.
    • Finally, for those who have been customizing their themes we have just added a $url.photo() to our model object reference.  It's a sligthly better way of showing the URL's for your photos.

 New Theme Added:

  • Another new theme was added today; 'Curacao'.  This simple, curvy theme is available for all our users and can currently be seen in action on our demo site.


That's it for now.  The next big update is being tested right now and should be released shortly.

Kind regards,

pixyBlog Team
