Session problems
I’m trying to track down the antispam problems, which should be related to sessions somehow :/
you can get the sources from this url
svn co http://flatpress.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/flatpress/branches/session-fix/flatpress/ flatpress-session-fix
meanwhile, you can help using this version of accessibleantispam which includes a debug system
if your antispam starts behaving in a strange way (i.e. says the result is wrong even if it’s not) contact me and I’ll try to have a look at your log
your log will be in fp-content/cache/aaspamlog.txt
let’s see if I can finally fix it :(

Forum under heavy load
Looks like either the forum is under a heavy load or my (cheap, yes that’s why I ask to donate ;)) host is under heavy load, but I’ve found a bit difficult accessing the forum in the last few minutes.
Now, see why I like FlatPress? :D

FlatPress 0.803 Vivace : it was about time!
I think I’m almost ready for a release, but I need you to test! test! test!.
Sooo, if you’re willing to help download FlatPress 0.803 (Vivace) now! :)
Get it while it’s hot :D
I hadn’t updated the changelog in a while, but changes are huge, a new DB backend (still not the best, but for that there’ll be the thesis), a new system to let plugin hook the admin panel, new cookie handling, new security features (wpnonce), etc etc…
Known Issues
I’ve found out issues with sessions I couldn’t track down.
This means that if you have “AccessibleAntispam” enabled it might not work giving a “wrong result” error.
The problems is that this happens even if the result is correct.
Unfortunately this doesn’t happen always, so I wasn’t able to fix it. I hope you can help.
How to upgrade
- BACKUP your fp-content/; please I WON’T be responsible for any damage! (but I’d anyway feel responsible if anything happened, so be kind, and save me another headache ;))
- Check your drafts. Drafts are now working in a different way. So either publish your old drafts or they’ll result on your home page. You can also re-save them, once you have finished upgrading.
- Rename your old FlatPress installation
- Upload the new FlatPress directory you have already unpacked
- Install the new FlatPress
- Move to the new fp-content/ your old content/ and images/, attachs/ (if any). Do not move config/, cache/ or users/ to the new installation
- Clear the cache/ contents
- Point your browser to the home page and wait for it to recreate the db (it will take a while, depending on the number of posts).
- Once the page is loaded FP is ready. Login and enjoy.
- (remember your drafts ;) )
If anything goes wrong please report it on the forum and let me know; in the meanwhile you can take back your old FlatPress installation by moving back the content/, images/, attachs/ dirs.
Please report any bugs!
bye!

This month is a constant headache
…so please be patient guys if I can’t be quick answering your questions…
I’m err… almost… done with my exams.
It’s been a long month and it’s still not finished, d’uh!
On Wednesday there’s another test, and hopefully the next week there should be the last one (if all went well for the written part… I’m a bit worried)
bye!
