- Adds more title info to each line in the block: now showing author and number of comments in a unified way accross all modules.
- Added pager support to blog module.
- Blog module now uses standard node view, not its own hack which is more theme friendly (http://www.drupal.org/node.php?id=133).
- Blog module now uses node_feed() function for making RSS feeds. since all feeds are now consolidated, a couple tweaks to node_feed() and format_rss_* would lead us to support new RSS formats easily.
- Fixed bugs where unpublished entries were displayed.
"This is a simple, generic pager for Drupal-CVS. It is designed to be
easily themeable and expandable. The code is highly-commented to
enhance readability."
"Pagers are constructed by combining the provided pieces (all of which
can be easily modified to display the text or image you prefer) into
your custom pager."
* Statistics module fixes by Jeremy:
- removed superfluous check for existence of watchdog()
- saving changes in admin page displays status and returns same page
- no longer return 1971/01/01 in "view statistics" table
- switched from "!=" to "<>" in SQL queries for ANSI-SQL compliance
- switched from "MAX(timestamp) as timestamp" to "MAX(timestamp) as
max_timestamp" moving towards ANSI-SQL compliance.
* Added a "theme_item_list" function to format itemized lists. Also
changed a couple of modules to take advantage of it. Makes for a
more consistent UI.
correctly. Patch by Stefan.
- Added missing t() functions and improved the %x directives for
better readability and to ease the process of translating your
site. Patches by Stefan.
- Made two small additions to the 'code-clean.sh' script; it will
now remove patch related junk.
NOTES:
- I removed the · related bits. Let's tackle these later on
in a separate patch after we got some sort of consensus.
- I removed the 'module_exist("drupal")' check in the user module;
I *think* it is incomplete and therefore incorrect.
- Stefan, try using quotes in your translations and check whether
everything still works. Example: translate the "Create account"
button to "Create \"haha\" account \'hihi\'" and see if you can
still create new accounts. Maybe automate this using a quick
hack in the locale module ...
- fixed comment flat list view missing 1 comment.
- changed update.php around a bit.
* security check isn't in effect if the db hasn't been updated.
* instructions re-organized.
* fixed some minor updates.
- updated database.mysql done by UnConeD.
- changelog update.
- fixed access checks on the register form, do this before you enter the
_save function. If registrations are disabled the register link will
no longer show (again).
- changed » to », using the names of entities are better than
the numbers.
- fixed user information being set when account is registered (properly this
time, really!)
- reversed the if(!...) commit.
- node_add specifies more defaults.
- added link to blog entries from user page.
- updated node modules not to cause errors when taxonomy module is disabled.
- added %date variable to user mail configuration.
- added hyperlinks to admin.php?mod=system (site configuration) for easy access.
- usual coding style and xhtml fixes.
* fixed mails not being parsed properly.
* tracker now shows user name when you view your own recent
comments.
* link to submission queue now points to the right place.
* fixed jabber module.
* theme is now activated when changed.
- applied Gerhards coding style patch.
+ Changed the db_query() API.
+ Wrapped all links in l(), lm(), la(), ..., drupal_url() functions.
+ XHTML-ified some HTML.
+ Wrapped a lot of text in the administrative pages in a t()
function.
+ Replaced all $REQUEST_URI/$PATH_INFOs by request_uri().
+ Small bugfixes (eg. bug in book_export_html() and clean-ups (eg.
RSS code).
+ Fixed some bugs in the taxonomy module (eg. tree making bug), added
new functionality (eg. new APIs for use by other modules), included
Moshe's taxonomy extensions, and some documentation udpates.
+ ...
can jump directly to a certain date in the archives. Also made
the calendar link to itself such that it is self-contained.
- Code beautifications: quoted a lot of arrays, removed dead code
and simplified a few things.
- Replaced the Calendar class by one function "calendar_display":
using a class (or class instance, or object) doesn't make sense
in the archives' case.
- Renamed "calendar.module" to "archive.module".
- Fixed a /problem/ with node settings not always being saved like
expected.
- Reorganized the user menu: renamed a couple of links for clarity
and structure.
- Fixed a few typos.
+ Improved input filtering; this should make the news items look
more consistent in terms of mark-up.
+ Quoted all array indices: converted all instances of $foo[bar]
to $foo["bar"]. Made various other changes to make the import
module compliant with the coding style.
- theme.inc:
+ Fixed small XHTML glitch
- comment system:
+ Made it possible for users to edit their comments (when certain
criteria are matched).
+ Renamed the SQL table field "lid" to "nid" and updated the code
to reflect this change: this is a rather /annoying/ change that
has been asked for a few times. It will impact the contributed
BBS/forum modules and requires a tiny SQL update:
sql> ALTER TABLE comments CHANGE lid nid int(10) NOT NULL;
+ Moved most (all?) of the comment related logic from node.php to
comment.module where it belongs. This also marks a first step
towards removing/reducing "node.php".
+ Added a delete button to the comment admin form and made it so
that Drupal prompts for confirmation prior to deleting a comment
from the database. This behavior is similar to that of deleting
nodes.
+ Disabled comment moderation for now.
+ Some of the above changes will make it easier to integrate the
upcomcing mail-to-web and web-to-mail gateways. They are part
of a bigger plan. ;)
- node system:
+ Made it so that updating nodes (like for instance updating blog
entries) won't trigger the submission rate throttle.
+ Fixed a small glitch where a node's title wasn't always passed
to the $theme->header() function.
+ Made "node_array()" and "node_object()" more generic and named
them "object2array()" and "array2object()".
+ Moved most (all?) of the comment related logic from node.php to
comment.module where it belongs. This also marks a first step
towards removing/reducing "node.php".
- misc:
+ Applied three patches by Foxen. One to improve performance of
the book module, and two other patches to fix small glitches in
common.inc. Thanks Foxen!
+ made some improvements to the node access checks
- queue module:
+ form()-ified the queue module and added some extra information
or guidelines
+ added a few missing translations
+ ...
+ Added the "delete node"-link: apparently it got lost during the last
commit. Odd.
+ Changed "Edit node" to "Edit <node_name>" on the 'edit node'-page of
the admin section. (There a 4 "Node"s that still need to be removed
though.)
+ Updated the initial submission page (the old submit.php) to include
some descriptions.
Drupal to display submission guidelines, or any other kind of explanation
such as "NO TEST POSTS", for example.
- Added node versioning: it is possible to create revisions, to view old
revisions and to roll-back to older revisions. You'll need to apply a
SQL update.
I'm going to work on the book module now, so I might be changing a few
things to enable collaborative, moderated revisions - but feel free to
send some first feedback, if you like.
- Added some configuration options which can be used to set the minimum
number of words a blog/story should consist of. Hopefully this will
be usefull to stop the (almost empty) test blogs.
- Various improvements:
+ Fine-tuned new node permission system.
+ Fine-tuned the functions in node.inc.
+ Fine-tuned some forms.
+ XHTML-ified some code.
+ introduced basic node permissions ("create", "delete", "update" and
"view") at the node level: it's up to the "<$node->type>_module" to
hide gory details (if any).
+ made the "blog it"-feature in the blog and import module work with
the new node system, in specific with the new centralized forms.
+ made it possible to update blogs.
+ made the page module work with the new node system.
+ various smaller improvements.
'updates/3.00-to.x.xx.mysql' for the required MySQL updates.
- Renamed some "author" fields to "uid" fields for sake of consistency.
- Fixed the coding style of some PHP files.
- Fixed the moderation queue (fairly untested though).
- Re-introduced the temporary SQL table in _node_get().
- Added a missing 'auto_increment' to 'updates/3.00-to-x.xx.mysql'.
- fixed small glitch in comment_del()
- changed the API of the form() function. The first parameter, the
"action"-attribute in the <form>-tag has been made optional. By
default, it will be set to "$REQUEST_URI".
Why? Because in 98% of the cases we would do:
global $REQUEST_URI;
$form = form($REQUEST_URI, $form_content);
while we can do:
$form = form($form_content);
now.
Update your modules (and sorry for the inconvenience)!
- Fixed tiny quote problem in account.php.
- Fixed tiny bug in comment.inc.
- Fixed tiny bug in comment.module.
- Fixed tiny bug in meta.module.
- Simplified user_access() API.
- Rewrote link system: still needs fine-tuning and testing so don't
upgrade if you are running a production site. ;)
Updated all modules and themes to reflect this change. All other
themes and modules need updating too!
(groups) and 'permissions' ... (inspired by Zope's system).
+ Once installed, click the help-link for more information.
+ See updates/2.00-to-x.xx.sql for the SQL updates.
- Modified loads of code to use our new access.module. The system
still has to mature though: new permissions have to be added and
existing permissions need stream-lining. Awaiting suggestions.
- As a direct result of the new access system, I had to rewrite the
way the top-level links in admin.php are rendered and displayed,
and xhtml-ified admin.php while I was at it.
TODO
- Home-brewed modules need updating, home-brewed themes not.
(Examples: file.module, trip_link.module)
- As soon we *finished* the refactoring of the user system (KJ has
been working on this refactoring already) we should consider to
embed this role and permission code into account.module ...
update, you'll break your site as you need switching from structure
to index.module: so this can be considered an intermediate commit.
If you upgrade, and you are welcome to, just create a collection
called "section" (for now) and assign your nodes some attributes
in the described format.
Feedback and bugreports are welcomed. Questions will be answered.
CHANGES:
- comment system:
+ when replying to a node (rather then to a comment), that
node is displayed above the reply form.
+ when replying to a comment (rather then to a node), that
comment is displayd above the reply form.
- removed structure.inc, removed structure.module.
- node.inc:
+ added 2 new node functions called 'node_attribute_edit()' and
'node_attribute_save()' used to 'hook in' any indexing system
including your home-brewed stuff if you'd want to. Currently,
index.module is the facto default index system.
See story.module for usage.
- book.module, story.module, poll.module, page.module, forum.module:
+ added preview functionality to administration section (via node
module).
+ removed all references to structure.inc (category, topic).
- moderate.module:
+ removed all references to structure.inc (category, topic).
- book.module, story.module, page.module, forum.module:
+ increased the sizes of some textareas.
- submit.php:
+ removed all references to structure.inc (category, topic).
- marvin.theme:
+ removed dead code: function story() was depricated.
- unconed.theme:
+ removed hardcoded references to drop.org.
- marvin.theme, unconed.theme, jeroen.theme, yaroon.theme, example.theme:
+ removed all references to structure.inc (category, topic).
TODO:
- file.module, trip_link.module:
+ update preview functionality:
see story.module for example.
+ remove references to 'cid' and 'tid', use 'attribute' instead:
see story.module for example.
- extend and build upon index.module as well as making it configurable
- Added improved node scheduler:
+ Automatically post node at date 'xx/xx/xx, xx:xx'.
+ Automatically queue node at date 'xx/xx/xx, xx:xx'.
+ Automatically dump node at date 'xx/xx/xx, xx:xx'.
Requires a database update, see ./updates/2.00-to-x.xx.sql!
- Refactored the admin interface of node.module. It is only a start
but it should show the direction we are going.
+ The new interface is easier to extend with new functionality
and operations. New "edit xxx" links can easily be added on
our way.
+ The new interface tries to cover all content- or node-related
functions. Thus making a special admin interface for each new
node type redundant. To demonstrate this, I removed the admin
hook from page.module and forum.module. This removes quite a
bit of logic from the invidual modules which is a good sign if
you ask me.
A centralized GUI or interface covering all node-related
administration should make Drupal easier to administer.
TODO:
- All node-related nodes need updating. This should be trivial and
I'll hapilly tackle this later tonight.
- There will be bugs, and I'm still working on this but I would like
to get some feedback (from Natrak et all) on both user-friendliness
and usability of this new interface. I'm still working on it as we
speak ...
structure.module either needs work, or replacement by index.module:
see "admin > node > node settings".
It will do for now and it can always made better when we can think
of a better solution; it is the best I could think of. Now what?
index.module or structure.module? I'm currently pro index.module.
- Drastically simplified "variable.inc".
- Removed most dependecies on structure.module from all content related
modules. Thus making our modules more modular. ;)
- Fixed calculation glitch in queue.module.
- Fixed potential function name clash/conflict in rating.module, and
simplified some code on my way.
- Started removing all global variables $status and $rstatus. Global
variables are "yucky" so in near future, we will replace all global
$status variables by a call to node_status(). Originally, $status
was only introduced as a temporary hack and nothing is as permanent
as a temporary hack so I took it out when still possible.
- Changed the watchdog messages a bit.
headline code is still in place 'till the new code has proven
to be stable. See "syndication.module" for the new code.
Changes:
+ Improved the parser and tested it against RSS 0.9, RSS 0.91,
RSS 0.92, RSS 1.0, RDF and XML feeds.
+ Improved the administration interface. It might be a bit fuzzy
at first. Maybe some native English like Julian, Michael (or any
one else with knowledge in the field) can help out by suggesting
better naming, terminology or descriptions - as well as by
writing the help section for this module? I'd have no idea how
much this would be appreciated.
+ We can *easily* recognize new tags or extensions: we parse out
"link", "title", "description" and "author" right now, but we
will have to revise which tags to support and which not. New
tags can be added in less than 10 minutes (if you are familiar
with the code). Read: we have something we can build on.
+ Within each item, tags can now appear is random order which is
or was not the case with the old headline code where we expect
<link>s prior to <description>s for example.
+ Feed updates only (ie. always) happen through cron. Neither do
we use one global cron for updating all feeds; instead, every
feed can specify his own update-interval.
+ Newly fetched headlines are "appended" to the pool of existing
headlines (read: we don't replace the whole feed), and headlines
automatically "expire" after x days or hours. (Every headline
has a timestamp.)
+ Got rid of backend.class; it is integrated in the module.
+ Switched to more generic names: "headline" became "item" and
"backend" became "feed". This should ease future non-headline
oriented syndication.
+ You can associate attributes or keyword lists with every feed.
At the moment new items will automatically inherit their feeds
attributes but in future we can use heuristics to make these
attributes "mutate" when and where we see fit. The attributes
can be maintained by hand as well.
+ We don't export any blocks yet; we will soon do as soon this
new code has been tested for a bit more. We will only export
bundles though so if you want to export by feed/source, you
will have to make a source-specific bundle.
- Polished a bit on a few other modules: nothing major.
