We should update the minimum requirements for Geeklog as well. Since
we've started using $_REQUEST in the core code in several places we'll
need to require PHP 4.1.0 or higher (at a minimum).

Use of $_REQUEST, $_POST and $_GET should be encouraged in the developer
and plugin documentation as well.

OK, I finally have checked in the a major update to the comment bar.
While I have tested it pretty thoroughly, it is going to need some
major additional testing to make sure the changes haven't had any side
effects.

A side affect of some of my fixes is to view/display a comment you no
longer need the sid, title or type.

i.e.
--NOW--
http://siteurl/comment.php?mode=display&pid=1234
http://siteurl/comment.php?mode=view&cid=1234
--BEFORE--
http://siteurl/comment.php?mode=display&sid=XXXXXXXXXXXX&title=Story+Title&type=article&pid=1234

The sid, title, type options are now disregarded but won't hurt to be
there. Is it worth it to update the themes (and where ever else there
are links in this format)?

Will do.



>Is it worth it to update the themes


Can't hurt.



>(and where ever else there are links in this format)?


I don't think there aren't any other places they were used (although I'm
not entirely sure either).

bye, Dirk

Subject: [geeklog-devel] New default theme
Reply-To: geeklog-devel at lists.geeklog.net

We've discussed the idea of picking a new default theme before. My
candidate would be the Professional theme by Victor B. Gonzalez (who's
also running aeonserv.com). I've already asked Victor for permission to
use it, should we decide to go with it, and he was happy with this.

So, what do you think?

The Professional theme is currently the default theme on <http://
aeonserv.com/> and is also installed on the Geeklog demo site, <http://
demo.geeklog.net/>.

It would need some minor adjustments (a new logo [Simon?], localisation
issues), but that shouldn't be too much work.

bye, Dirk

I think it is time. And the Professional would be a good choice.

That's fine. I also say you take the time to nix all the other themes.
We've discussed this before but I think we should only work with one
theme in CVS...keeping the rest up-to-date should be delegated to the
community. Thoughts?
