Okay, after taking a week off, followed by a pretty busy week at work
(which culminated in the most rigged up demo I did in a long time ...),
1.3.10rc3 is slightly behind schedule. But we're getting there.

Can I ask everyone to check the changelog, please? I may have missed a
change or two. Please update it yourself when you change something in
CVS. Thanks.

I have to catch up on the language files and look into one or two obscure
bug reports, but other than that, CVS already includes what I had in mind
for rc3.

Anyone missing anything?

bye, Dirk

Dirk,

Looking good :)

The only thing that I see was when I was adding the feature for a plugin to 
have control to display a block (now installed on geeklog.net) like the when 
on a forum page to show a forum menu block: I needed a way to get a list of 
blocks for this user and their order - then I add the forum block at the 
top - and call the custom_showblocks function that is part of 1.3.10.

100% of the needed code is in COM_showBlocks but this function also calls 
COM_formatBlock. I need to append to the list of blocks to display. A 
suggestion would be to change that to a function called COM_getUserBlocks 
and then call COM_formatBlock for each one of these blocks.

COM_showBlocks is only called in 3 places in lib-common so it should not 
effect any other code.

Also if we did this then we would not need custom_showBlocks.

COM_getUserBlocks  - returns an array of blocks to display for the user.
COM_showBlocks - would then accept an array of blocknames
  - Retrieve the record details for each
  - Call COM_formatBlock

Reply-To: geeklog-devel at lists.geeklog.net

Is anyone out there dealing with a site or client that has a 
requirement to run 2 or more languages?  For example, I'm looking at a 
client with two languages.  The idea is that when you first come to the 
site you are greated with choosing either language, the language you 
choose would then not only be the language of the site but also the 
stories.

This would mean having to write each story in two languages, then 
possibly having some mechanism that links the 2 up so that the user is 
taken to the proper language story.

If any solutions, or modules, have been made for this purpose please 
let me know.

Sincerely,
Simon
