Beginning to move over to using CGI.pm, and it has broken quite a bit already. This will be quite an involved and trying process.

Actually it turns out it didn't break quite a bit, only one thing was broken. That one thing was the ReDirect() sub. It's been fixed, and things seem to be working well now. I may move the prototype 0.40 into active state for the main site.

DoSearch() is going to be re-written to be faster (it's fast if you only have a few pages, but as you get up around 100 or more, it slows down noticeably).

Also, file uploads should be implemented soon and tested.

-- AaronGraves Mon Mar 10 16:24:56 UTC 2014 (69.4.28.21)


New search is in place and seems to work fairly well. Unsure at this time if there is a "noticeable" speed difference.

File uploads are implemented, and working. This will introduce two new variables to the config file. They are:

  • $UploadsAllowed - Set to 1 for allowed, 0 for not allowed. Default will be 0.
  • @UploadTypes - Array that holds the MIME types of allowed file uploads. The default is set to include 'image/jpeg', 'image/gif', and 'image/png'.

Moved File Uploads to Implemented, and CGI.pm to Partially Implemented

Here's a list of mime types (for reference): http://webdesign.about.com/od/multimedia/a/mime-types-by-file-extension.htm

Shortcodes were implemented on the 20th of March.

-- AaronGraves Mon Mar 24 16:26:41 UTC 2014 (69.4.28.21)


Debating on renaming Shortcodes to Macros.

Also, I changed shortcodes from using single brackets to single percent signs.

Today I changed the way DoVisit and DoAdminListVisitors work. Basically, the visitor log file will be much easier to get information from.

The code for reading/writing cookies needs to be changed (convert to using CGI.pm)

-- AaronGraves Thu May 8 19:33:38 UTC 2014 (69.4.28.21)


Reading and writing cookies has been converted to CGI.pm methods.

I have fixed a bug in the URI handling for Aneuch whereby the semicolon was being sent at %3B by some requesters (ahem, Google), and was causing some rather unexpected results.

Thinking of a new short code, called discusspage which provides a link to the discussion page (if enabled) of an article. If you're on the discussion page, it'll provide a link back to the article page. Further, it can take arguments for link text, and possibly even page (for example, if you want to point to the discussion page for article XYZ)
