Day Light Savings

Posted by Michael Dale on Sun, 29 Oct 2006 10:56 AM

If you're running Bluetrait 1.1 or higher you'll need to update your time settings as daylight saving has started (for example in Australia the time setting should now be +11).

This setting can be found on the General Settings page.

Bluetrait 1.1.1

Posted by Michael Dale on Fri, 27 Oct 2006 10:32 PM

Bluetrait version 1.1.1 is now out. This version includes some small bug fixes that were found in 1.1.0.

This version has some fixes required for a few new futures that will be seen in the next month or so.

Because this is a small update I've put together a zip of changed files to upgrade version 1.1.0 to version 1.1.1. Please note that this zip ONLY upgrades version 1.1.0.

Bluetrait 1.1 Features

Posted by Michael Dale on Thu, 05 Oct 2006 1:11 PM

Version 1.1 is currently under way. For those interested the following features should be included in the next release:

  • FCKeditor can now be used for editing comments
  • A password reset (forgot password) function is now built in
  • PDA Style sheet for the admin panel
  • We've updated the main admin style sheet to look even better
  • The config page will allow for certain changes to be made (uploading text config file)
  • Some general bug fixes
  • Removed the need for magic_quotes (PHP 6 is meant to do away with this function anyway)
  • Time zone support (I haven't decided on the extent of this yet)

There is no planned release date at this stage and there should be some more changes before version 1.1 is released.

Let us know if you're interested in seeing any new features included.

We're currently testing public read-only subversion access.

To checkout the latest version of Bluetrait 1.2

svn co svn://svn.bluetrait.org/bluetrait/branches/1.2

Currently you cannot upgrade to a stable version from the Bluetrait 1.2 trunk.

To checkout the dev version of Bluetrait 2.0

svn co svn://svn.bluetrait.org/bluetrait/branches/2.0

As of Bluetrait 2 Alpha 1 you can upgrade from the trunk.

Please note this is the latest code and may have major bugs, please don't run it in a production environment.

Security Issue

Posted by Michael Dale on Fri, 11 Aug 2006 6:18 PM

There is a security issue in the current beta that involves the file upload script. This has been fixed in the trunk (link will be posted soon). A quick fix would be to delete admin/include/upload-script.php

Please note that this is BETA software and has yet to be fully tested against security issues (which will happen before the final version is released).
