FlatPress 0.703 (Crescendo) beta1

So, after a long long awaiting, looks like it’s time for it to come, it’s not final, so I expect some bugs to be there (actually I’ve just found a stupid one and quick-fixed already, it will be patched better in the next package). Just tell me and I’ll fix them.

Still not on sourceforge for now

flatpress-0.703-crescendo-beta.tar.bz2

Cimangi sent me a good bunch of fixes, and even a date localization patch, but unfortunately it worked only under certain circumstances (in fact, a windows server); also the |date_format modifier is needed in English for the rss module, so the whole thing need some rethinking;
don’t worry it’s on the todo (maybe not very-very sooon, as it is harder than you may think ;))

    Hi,
    your script is great & flexible !

    I’dont know, if it is a bug, but by using the 2 themes (only flatmaas2 & leggero) there is a problem with the rss function: In the RSS-site, the link does’t open the right article/comment…

    for german user: you have to change the line in ‘rss.tpl’:

    <pubDate>{$date|date_format:”%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S %z”}</pubDate>

    to

    <pubDate>{$date|date_format:”%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S”}</pubDate>

    now there is now problem with the rss-output

    Thanks Edoardo Vacchi - keep it rocking!

    Thank you for your good words, Tonicwater!

    And thanks for your report, I’ll blog right now a way to workaround until I really fix this bug; the problem comes from how themes are now handled; if you switched to an old-styled theme (like the one you find on fpthemes) it should not happen…

    as for the date, i think you shouldn’t have issue as the %z (unless your date appear localized, but actually it shouldn’t) is needed by the standard rfc-822

    bye :)

    Nice progress there! I’d like to ask, do you accept code contributions? For example I was thinking of replacing the current captcha with a better one that has a voice option as well. If I do it, will you included it in the next realese?

    I usually do accept contributions, after a revision.

    We can discuss this further if you join the ML and send a message explaining what you have in mind. The voice option “sounds” good :D cough :D

    Activating dumb mode, solved the issue.

    It seems that after the conversion to UTF-8, everything went OK, except the titles in the last 10 entries sections.

    BTW, will be trackbacks implemented?

    empty your fp-content/cache/* ; you can do that also from panel > maintenance

    I’m not sure about trackbacks as they’re vehicle of spam, but I’m thinking about pings to technorati and the like: they’re safe and they just take a class from wp.

    I would implement them as a plugin with automated ping on posting
