Geeklog 1.4.1 beta 2

Announcements

The second beta version of Geeklog 1.4.1 is now available for download. While we still have to sort out some issues (with MS SQL and in a few other places), this release should provide a much more polished experience and preview of the next Geeklog version.

Beta 2 fixes problems with MS SQL, improves multi-language and UTF-8 support, sorts out display problems with the Professional theme, and fixes several other bugs. It also includes updated PEAR packages (specifically PEAR::Mail, which addresses a problem with SMTP). Please see the included changelog for a complete list of changes. There's also a file, docs/changed-files, that lists all the files that changed over beta 1.

Media Gallery v1.4.6 Released

Plugins

I am proud to announce the release of Media Gallery v1.4.6. This release contains a few bug fixes, some auto tag enhancements and several HTML validation fixes. There is a new auto tag, the img: auto tag - this will return just the plain HTML code for a Media Gallery image, no borders or other formatting is added. I have tried to identify and track down several HTML validation errors for the release as well. This release also supports the upcoming Geeklog v1.4.1 release with full support for using Microsoft SQL Server as the database backend.

For a detailed list of files that have changed between v1.4.5 and v1.4.6 see the filelist in the distribution.

For more details on Media Gallery, please see the Media Gallery Support Site and the Media Gallery Documentation Wiki.

Geeklog 1.4.1 Microsoft SQL Server Support

GeeklogThe objective of the Microsoft SQL (MSSQL) port is to provide another database alternative to MYSQL to take advantage of SQL server in business environments where Mysql may be a barrier to entry. The goal was to provide the ability for GL1.4.0 to work in either Mysql or MS SQL server with zero code changes required to be done by the end user. The version(s) of SQL supported are SQL 2000 and above, including the MSDE.

An example plugin that was created to show an approach to isolate the database layer from the application logic can be found here in the downloads library.
