Serendipity 0.8.1 released

Garvin am um :

The "environment" are those which have usetranssid activated; those use an internal outputbuffering with which our method of gzip encoding does not cooperate.

About the categories, yes actually this would be best done with a plugin-mod. It really isn't that hard, but already the categories sidebar describes a list of all categories? You may also want to look at the customarchive plugin, it may be interesting for you.

Mike, actually the PNGs should work fine in the non-standard compatible Internet Explorer if:

  • you have JavaScript activated
  • the serendipityeventbrowsercompatibility plugin is loaded
  • your serendipityHTTPPath and baseURL path settings contain the same values like you use to view your Blog with (else the IE complains about security issues)

You may occasionally once need to refresh your page and make sure that CSS/JavaScript contains no errors.

I agree it's really annoying and am looking forward when PNG transparency finally gets implemented into Internet Explorer, which other browsers have succeeded with about 4 years ago.

I'm really sorry for that inconvenience. :-(

Regards, Garvin

With the update to 0.8, the ability to mirror posts on Livejournal through a XML-RPC plugin, my new custom theme, spam blocking on those "poker" comments and trackbacks, the blog list notices, and increasing number of useful plugins... Well, I use gzip, but I won't quibble over it ;)

Been using Serendipity since the 0.6 versions - I have no regrets about that choice today.

Onward to 0.9 :)

Garvin,

for some reason, the browser compatibility plugin was loaded 3 times after the upgrade (??!). I deleted 2 of them and at first sight, everything seems back to normal.

Thanks !

Custom Permalinks URLs

Fred am um :

For example, Wordpress doesn't use a seperate table. Instead, it uses the "short title" combined with the post's date to determine the correct one post. I never tried two posts with the same title on the same day, but I think the short title will differ somehow, then.

Nonetheless, I like the idea to use a seperate table, depending on the permalink syntax used. It can significantly speed up article search. Tables usually don't hurt.
