Skin & plugin galore

Posted by fplanque on May 12, 2007 in Community

I keep getting emails about this: YES you can install the new Miami Blue skin on b2evo 1.9 if you want to use it without upgrading to b2evo 1.10 yet.

Just download the skin here, unzip it in your /skins folder and then select in the the Blog settings.

We also have 52 downloadable skins for b2evolution 1.9 on the skins site right now. And let me repeat that: skins designed for 1.9 will also work on 1.10 B)

We also have an equal number of plugins to download on the plugins site.

Both the skins & plugin sites gave been moved to our new b2evo community server which makes them run significantly faster than they used to. Many thanks to Danny for the migration and to our generous donors who help us pay for the servers.

1.10 call for translations

Posted by fplanque on May 07, 2007 in Translations

Language packs for version 1.9 will also work on version 1.10.

However, version 1.10 introduces some new strings that would need specific translation.

Thus, complete 1.10 language packs will improve user experience.

Now would be a good time for all translators to update translations for version 1.10 and send them to me.

If you've never done a translation before but would like to contribute, you can find startup instructions here. There is a cool tool to help you translate efficiently.

b2evo 1.10 "Miami" released

Posted by fplanque on May 02, 2007 in New releases

b2evolution 1.10 "Miami" has been released.

You can download it here.

This is a beta version but as it is built on top of the super stable version 1.9.3, we're pretty confident that it is stable already. However there have been enough antispam core changes to warrant this a beta label just in case some side-effects would appear.

This version contains features we could easily release without waiting for 2.0. So why wait? ;)

There are 3 main improvements in this version:

  • It blocks even more spam than before! You should probably upgrade for that alone! ;)
  • It looks better, especially with the new Miami Blue skin.
  • It adds new features by way of new bundled plugins, especially: YouTube videos, code highlighting and XML sitemaps.

As always, we included as many little bug fixes as possible.

Upgrading will be fairly easy as the skins from version 1.9 will work on version 1.10 also. And the skins from version 1.8 will require only minor adjustments, if they need some at all.

There is no diff file. We only do diffs for minor upgrades. This one requires to follow the normal upgrade procedure outlined in index.php inside of the ZIP file.

Longer list of changes:

  • Antispam filtering on private/email messages.
  • Improved spam defeating methods.
  • "Contact the admin" link on all skins.
  • New bundled plugins :
    • Added Sitemaps plugin(blueyed, fplanque)
    • Added Code highlight plugin (yabba, fplanque)
    • Added Video plug plgin (fplanque)
    • Updated Quicktags plugin (fplanque)
  • New bundled skins :
    • Added l33t_gray skin (demented kitty)
    • Added Miami Blue skin (miami condo real estate)
  • Bug fixes :
    • Fixed logging of refering spam (when spam refs are not blocked)
    • Fixed group permissions
    • Fixed "Undeclared entity error" with the htmlchecker, e.g. if " " got used. (blueyed)
    • Locales have been standardize to ISO-3166
    • Additional bug fixes.
  • Developer stuff:
    • Standardized Meta robots handling with robots_tag(); set $robots_index and $robots_follow to NULL if you want to completely with a plugin. Set them to true within a plugin to have them handled by the core.
    • Added hooks: FilterItemContents, UnfilterItemContents (fplanque)
    • Improved hooks: LoginAttempt, MessageFormSent. (blueyed)
    • Less javascript required for toolbars.

New design, new logo

Posted by fplanque on Mar 27, 2007 in b2evolution.net

If you're reading this in your RSS reader, check out our new site design.

Otherwise, you have probably noticed already! :)

Please let us know how it works for you...

The subsites (skins, plugins, manual, forums, demo...) will be updated to follow the main design shortly. In the meantime, please bear with a little inconsistency ;)

You may also have noticed the new b2evolution logo... just to give you a foretaste of 2.0 ;)

b2evo 1.9.3 "Rainforest" released

Posted by fplanque on Mar 12, 2007 in New releases

b2evolution version 1.9.3 "Rainforest" has been released.

Download b2evolution 1.9.3 here.

1.9.3 "Rainforest" addresses the following issues:

  • Fixed "basic antispam de-activates itself".

  • Fixed inclusion of sub-categories in item list (e.g. ?cat=1).

  • Fixed handling of formats in pre-rendering content. You should delete the cache from the "Tools" menu after upgrading.

  • Some more minor fixes.

Almost all fixes have been done by Daniel (blueyed) with a bit of Yabba too ;)

This is not a critical release. If you haven't noticed any bug in 1.9.2 yet, you probably don't need to upgrade. However, upgrading from 1.9.2 to 1.9.3 is just a matter of replacing a couple of files. You can find these files in this diff ZIP: upgrade-1.9.2-to-1.9.3.zip

Needless to say, this release is even more stable than 1.9.2 and this makes "Rainforest" the recommended version to use at this time.

coming next...

Most of the development efforts are on version 2.0-alpha but there is still a pretty long way to go before we include everything we need in that one.

In the meantime there will be a 1.10-alpha release, including some additional plugin functionality.

b2evo 1.8.7 AND 1.9.2 released!

Posted by fplanque on Jan 22, 2007 in New releases

Once again we have two sister releases: 1.8.7 "Tokyo" and 1.9.2 "Kyoto".

They both include additional security enhancements over the previous versions.

Although the addressed issues are not very likely to be exploited in a meaningful way, we still recommend that you upgrade for maximum security.

Version 1.9.2 "Kyoto" irons out the glitches remaining in the 1.9.x branch and we now consider 1.9.2 to be our new stable release. You may want to take this opportunity to upgrade to 1.9 if you're still using 1.8.x or an older version.

Download here!

We also have packages which only contain modified files:

  • upgrade-1.8.5-to-1.8.7.zip
  • upgrade-1.8.6-to-1.8.7.zip
  • upgrade-1.9.1-to-1.9.2.zip

Upgrade instructions from 1.8.x to 1.9.x: http://manual.b2evolution.net/Upgrade_from_1.8.x_to_1.9.x
