From dirk at haun-online.de Mon Nov 1 04:11:45 2010 From: dirk at haun-online.de (Dirk Haun) Date: Mon, 1 Nov 2010 09:11:45 +0100 Subject: [geeklog-devel] Dropping support for PHP 4 Message-ID: We've talked about it before and I just opened an issue in the bugtracker[1] so we have it on record: It's about time we drop support for PHP 4. This issue also came up in the now traditional meetup of the various CMS projects that take part in GSoC during the Mentor Summit: Most of the PHP-based CMS are still struggling to get rid of having to support PHP 4. For the PHP developers and the PHP community at large, PHP 4 has been dead since 2007-12-31. The only reasons it is still around seem to be: 1) legacy applications that are "important" but won't work on PHP 5 2) some Linux distributions with long-term support that happened to be shipping PHP 4 when they were released 1) is not our problem. If Geeklog happens to be running on the same server as such a legacy application, I'm sure workarounds can be found to separate the two. 2) is more of a problem. There's a vocal minority[2] of users of such distributions that seem to be causing all this pain. My suggestions is that we find out when support for those systems finally runs out (February 2012 seems to be one such date) and commit to providing security fixes for Geeklog 1.7.x until that date. That sounds like a long time and I don't want to hold off releasing a security fix just for the extra work that it takes to backport it. So I'd suggest we promise to provide "timely" fixes for such a legacy branch, i.e. ASAP but not necessarily on the same day as for the then-current version.

I am not sure how many PHP 4 users we have (an old poll suggests not too many http://www.geeklog.net/polls/index.php?pid=php-and-mysql-2008) but since we are "The secure CMS" we should provide the community with a date first of the cut off (a posting on the site) and then offer support for 1.7.x up to that point.

Saturday morning I attended the session "Creating the Ideal Homepage for your Project". Sadly, it looks like the note taker from that session never posted the notes. Here are the bullets of what I took away from the session: - Navigation on the top of the page is infrequently used and often ignored entirely. One organization did an eye tracking study and found top navigation is least viewed content on the page. - Design consisting of solely or mostly text is intimidating. This is especially true for dense text. - Keeping content for developers (perhaps better labeled contributors) separate from content for users ("site developers" in our case) usually promotes cleaner more user friendly design. - "Screencast" videos are popular among non-contributors, but (almost) completely ignored by contributors. - Use other open source projects' web sites as examples. Feel free to copy design from other sites (with their permission). I think we should take a look at other CMSs' sites and figure out which design details are applicable to us and try to incorporate those design elements into our site. - The group had mixed feelings about whether and how prominently case studies and example sites should be featured. Everyone did agree that it is a bad idea to commit to a time line to refreshing content (e.g. a site of the week) for fear of being unable to keep to an update schedule. - The other place of much group dissent was how much, if any, detail should be included on the front page describing the project (i.e. an "about" section). - Prominent "Download" buttons were liked by almost everyone (geeklog.netis an example of this). The group also (very briefly) took a look at geeklog.net and had some suggestions and comments. Sadly, I seem to have misplaced the notes I took during that time. Here is the what I remember: - The prominent download button was considered a good choice. - The three column layout was universally panned for being to cluttered. - The forum block was praised for keeping content on the homepage fresh. - People commented that the site was difficult to take in because of the text density. - The general color scheme of the site was thought to be pretty good. I'm not sure how to directly apply all these points to our site layout. I think a customized front page with a bit less content, but with some prominent useful links would be a good idea. There was bit more discussion about other open source projects' sites, but I don't think I'll go into detail on those as the parts that are relevant to geeklog.net are covered above.

All the configuration options to enable OAuth (and the required ids and secrets for Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter) can be found under Configuration -> Users and Submissions and the Users block The PHP extension OpenSSL is required for OAuth. If you do not have this loaded or are missing any config values then the OAuth login method will not display. You also require more pear libraries which for now can be found in the Geeklog OAuth hack download http://www.geeklog.net/article.php/2010082512500924 Also read the readme.txt file in the hack for instructions on how to get your Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn consumer ids and secrets. I have also updated the user settings page with a resynch option for OAuth. The password fields are also now removed if the user account is from a remote service. Current Bugs - Currently the Facebook Consumer Key in the configuration will not save correctly. The config value is setup as text but it looks like most Facebook keys are all numbers which get converted from (for example) 1325903980294642 to 1.3250398029464E+14. This problem can be temp fix by hard coding your key ($consumer_key) into the facebook.auth.class.php - Resynching of Facebook account fails (not sure why yet as the others work) Things I still need to work on. - I need to finish the documentation http://wiki.geeklog.net/index.php/OAuth - OAuth resynching contains duplicate code which needs cleaning up - OAuth reauthentication - Bugs Things to consider for later. - Resynching of other remote accounts like OpenId - Reauthenticating of other remote accounts like OpenId Thanks Tom __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 5614 (20101112) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com From cordiste at free.fr Fri Nov 12 10:40:35 2010 From: cordiste at free.fr (cordiste) Date: Fri, 12 Nov 2010 16:40:35 +0100 Subject: [geeklog-devel] Geeklog OAuth Update In-Reply-To: <00b001cb8278$c5dbbdb0$51933910$@net> References: <00b001cb8278$c5dbbdb0$51933910$@net> Message-ID: Thanks Tom for the update. ::Ben 2010/11/12 Tom : > Hi All, > > I just pushed the integration of the OAuth hack into Geeklog. > > All the configuration options to enable OAuth (and the required ids and > secrets for Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter) can be found under Configuration > -> Users and Submissions and the Users block > > The PHP extension OpenSSL is required for OAuth.

I don't want to take it over myself but I would contribute to the project at some point (I have other things planned at the moment). Blaine mentioned at one point (I can't seem to find the email) that we should take a look at the forum included in the NexPro release as it is an upgraded version. We should create a public HG repository for it plus for several other popular plugins that the original authors have stopped working on. > Is there still time for me to do my COM_newTemplate patch?

I am sorry for not being more impulsive in the community, maybe if I was, the alpha was already launched. I have some time to work at the plugin, and I will do it gladly, but I really don't know how to handle the situation. I recently asked Vinny to make a list of things that are not currently fine with the plugin, exactly what we need to accomplished by the release. If you have some time, I created a wiki page [1] so that all of you can contribute to this list. We could really appreciate some testing and some feedback.

Call me gun shy. The patch is "big" because everywhere a template is created is the same four calls to set_var. The patch removes them because those calls are in COM_newTemplate. The value of COM_newTemplate is if Geeklog ever needs a 5th call to set_var, you only have to change the function in lib-common once. > This also reminds me of your long ago Calendar patch.

The links must be from Geeklog 1.6.1 as Webmaster tools do not report any from the time before I upgraded (unless they recheck the link and update the date). I reviewed the code as well and the comment function handleview grabs the cid for view mode and the pid for display mode. I didn't see anywhere else that it could be different.

If I recall, when I revamped the comment system I organized the direct linking to comments and comment trees to be more consistent. At that time I may have removed the "mode=display" links.

(Weighting the pros and cons of each) The examples from: http://downloads.sixrevisions.com/css-tooltips/index.html seems to be pretty good. My questions is, do you see Geeklog needing just one type of tooltip (in this case something similar to the classic in the above example) or will there be the need for other types of tooltips? (i.e. Critical, Help, Information and Warning). Each of the other tooltip types only needs one extra line in the css file plus a template file and the image.

This issue was part of a discussion on tooltips and mobile devices. Here is a bit more info quoted from a comment the author made: "That's actually not true.especially if you have a newer "full-browser" phone like Android or the iPhone. The CSS :hover pseudo class isn't fantastic on mobile devices, but it can still work. Links are a different story because of the action fired on click, but an element (anchor included) with a :hover pseudo class will display that action on touch. I realize this isn't the point of the article at all, but say you're doing hover actions with Javascript, like a drop down menu - one touch will fire the hover action, and a second touch will fire the "normal" click action. Maybe that's just my Android phone - and I apologize for my ignorance if it is."

The link you posted only offered tooltips on non-links so I couldn't test that. Also, having to double-tap a link may become annoying. I'm not against using tooltips. I'm only saying we should use them sparingly. bye, Dirk From websitemaster at cogeco.net Sun Nov 28 11:02:42 2010 From: websitemaster at cogeco.net (Tom) Date: Sun, 28 Nov 2010 11:02:42 -0500 Subject: [geeklog-devel] Geeklog Tooltips Autotags Update In-Reply-To: <006901cb8e55$919cfc60$b4d6f520$@net> References: <900574.29654.qm@web31402.mail.mud.yahoo.com> <015d01cb8bef$a6ee49b0$f4cadd10$@net> <004b01cb8e42$4dab78a0$e90269e0$@net> <21BE1B61-CDCD-4B85-9A49-72241FA9606B@haun-online.de> <006901cb8e55$919cfc60$b4d6f520$@net> Message-ID: <009d01cb8f15$b0201990$10604cb0$@net> Hi All, I have just pushed the changes for the Autotag Description and Usage Permissions feature requests for Geeklog and all of the core plugins. Everything is completed with the exception of maybe some cosmetic tooltip modifications. Plugin authors who wish to support these new features should take a look at one of the core plugins for an example on how to implement it. You mainly need to look at the function function plugin_autotags_xxxx. Besides the operations "tagname" and "parse" for the function there now are "permission", "nopermission" and "description". Also if you allow autotags in any user submissions, when you check your content and when you save it to the db (or preview it) you should also now remove the autotags the user does not have permission to use. For example: // Remove any autotags the user doesn't have permission to use $A['description'] = PLG_replaceTags($A['description'], '', true); In most cases you would do this when you parse out any html or bad words in the content. Autotag Usage Permissions work similar to the regular read and edit permissions for stories etc.. (except there is no 3 and 2 means Use and not Read) If you have time, please test. Next up for me is to finish off/tidy up the OAuth support. After that I hope to get started looking into using the Professional_CSS theme and updating the new graphics provided by Rouslan. I also hope to look at allowing other plugin objects to be associated to Topics (Feature 1155). I also have the Autotags plugin update almost finished which supports these new features. If you want an early copy let me know. I will release it to the community once Geeklog 1.8.0 is released.
