At last! Just before your holidays, when sun is hot and you really care about everything except posting on your blog (ha-ha), here it is, the new FlatPress has come, with a new logo, a new release and this brand new wonderful website.
I’m waiting for those who are of course going to say they liked the old logo and the old site better :D
As announced, now FP comes bundled with the only English language (so that nobody complains :P), but you can found here:
This list will be updated as soon as people sync their translations with the new version; diffs are in this post; of course you can also update the wiki on your own (if you prepare a package, please do it :D).
Yes, we have a wiki.
If you are lazy and you don’t want to start over, we have some packages for older versions listed on this older page.
Be sure to read the guidelines (for instance lang files should be in utf-8)
We still lack a forum… I’d like to use PunBB but the lack of utf-8 blocks me; utf-8 won’t be there until 1.3 (which is still under development — and which looks cool)
Installing a new language
To install a new language just get the contents of the lang/ dir of the compressed archive and overwrite when you’re (eventually) asked.
Then choose the new language from the config panel.
Done. :)
Changelog
The complete changelog since 0.612 can be found here.
Side notes
If you’re thinking this site looks a lot like my personal blog you’re right :D

I am with trouble under this new version, the login page do not redirect to the admin page :(

Sorry, I don’t get it. When you log in you can click on the links to go to the main admin panel, to add a new entry, and to go back to your index.
If you expect sometimes the login page to redirect you, and it doesn’t work, well then it may be a minor issue :)
bye

Thanks for this great release. However I observed two bugs:
First the Highlighter must be enabled by uncommenting line 441:
//’code’ => ‘pre’,
otherwise [code=language] does not work, secondly with static pages and PHP4.4.7 I observed the following error:
Warning: Smarty error: validate: validator id ’subject’ is not registered. in /mnt/web4/33/32/5181132/htdocs/flatpress/fp-includes/smarty/Smarty.class.php on line 1095
The same is true for validator id ‘content’ and ‘id’. Furthermore I updated the german Language translation where should I put this ?
regards,
Detlef

Again me,
sorry, but the Smarty-error disapeared for unkown reasons. So only the Hilighter-issue remains to be fixed.
regards,
Detlef

The Highlighter must be enabled by uncommenting line 441:
File: fp-plugins/bbcode/plugin.bbcode.php
//ācodeā => āpreā,

Hi, DetlefGroth!
Thank you for trying FlatPress, letās answer your comments.
1. BBCode: Iāve just downloaded the package from SourceForge to be sure: line 441 is uncommented, are sure you didnāt inadvertently download an older version? I must admin I didnāt test very much SH plugin; moreover I suggest you to update the js files of that plugin from the dp.SyntaxHighlighter home page, where the author adjusted the behaviour with pre (I didnāt test it :))
2. SmartyValidate: That might happen if you open two or more pages with forms contemporary; say, you select ānew staticā and ānew entryā; it depends on how validation is handled at the moment. if you see this, try refreshing the page, or select another link
3. Language: thatās great! You can register to the wiki and upload it right there. From the text editor of the wiki you have to choose the small button with a picture frame in it: a window will open, allowing you to upload your package.
Bye!

1. SH-Plugin: I will check this again and I will update to the new release
2. Thanks for telling me how to reproduce the problem, so this is a known issue
3) I uploaded the anguage pack and mentioned the link on the Wiki, the translation is based on the older from Christian alias tafkas and your language diff for the english languages
4) I recently compared several text file blogs on http://www.selfhtml.de/artikel_10_1_Text-Datei-basierende-PHP-Blogs.htm
, unfortunatly it is in german only. FlatPress was one of my recommendations
Bye!

1. I’ve checked with more calm, and actually the problem is that you *have* to comment that line :) ok. I’ll remember that for a minor release
3. Great! I’ll update my post
4. Oh, then you’re the author :) I’m aware of that and I’ve found nice that you provided some custom CSSs. Maybe you want to check them with leggero or the newer FlatMaas (they were for 0.612 if I remember correctly) and release them on the wiki as well ?
I can’t read German (even though I try to understand from poor Google translations) but thank you for the review :)

PS: Leggero is based on flatmaas, so they share most of their xhtml code (with some changes); I’m planning to add a style switch option so that you can have several CSS sets for a single xhtml structure :)

1. Oh yes, you must [b]comment[/b] the line with 441:
[code]
//ācodeā => āpreā,
[/code]
4. I ported on this article some WordPress templates to flatpress as well. I found my stylesheet structure - created from the flatmass2 template - easier to handle. The file is here: http://www.selfhtml.de/text-datei-blogs.zip
