I marked the blocks up using a div tag so I could give it a lightgray background-color via a style attribute. That worked fine. I also needed to mark up the text with underline tags and span tags with the style attribute so that I could change the color of the text. I changed the allowed tags in config.php so that the Story admin could add the style attribute to div and p tags and use the underline tag. For some reason, though, my style attributes were changed from: style="color: blue" -- to -- style="blue" somewhere in the processing of the story. This prevents me from changing the color of the text in the story, so the example Google output doesn't look nearly as good. I'd like to find a way to fix this, hopefully without having to hack any big pieces of geeklog code. Any suggestions?

It seems to interpret anything that ends in a colon as a protocol - and then filters all the unknown protocols. So, while you certainly want it to filter out anything that starts with, say "javascript:", you really want to keep the "color:" ... I have no real solution for this other than a) stick the "color: blue" in a class and use class="" instead of style="" b) bring this to the attention of the kses developers over at http://sf.net/projects/kses/ bye, Dirk -- http://www.haun-online.de/ http://www.haun.info/ From sud_NOSPAM at latinsud.com Wed May 12 18:11:40 2004 From: sud_NOSPAM at latinsud.com (SuD) Date: Thu, 13 May 2004 00:11:40 +0200 Subject: [geeklog-users] Copy button (start->end) on event editing Message-ID: <40A2A11C.6070409@latinsud.com> I was thinking that a copy start date to end date would be fine in event editor, as many events have end time near start time.

Currently, if a given user can submit at all they can submit to any group that they have READ access to. This custom function plus two very small hacks changes this logic so that a user can only submit stories to topics in which they have WRITE access.

'es_ES' should work for most Unix-like operating systems (assuming the Spanish locale is even available on the server). BSD variants seem to prefer something like 'es_ES.iso-8859-1' and for Windows, it's something else entirely (probably 'Spanish_Spain', but I would have to look that up). bye, Dirk -- http://www.haun-online.de/ http://www.tinyweb.de/ From sud_NOSPAM at latinsud.com Thu May 20 11:13:02 2004 From: sud_NOSPAM at latinsud.com (SuD) Date: Thu, 20 May 2004 17:13:02 +0200 Subject: [geeklog-users] Locale settings and time In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <40ACCAFE.8080002@latinsud.com> Jaime Ortega wrote: >Now I can see all menu items in Spanish, but all references to time (day, >week, month, year)are still shown in English.

Someone recently posted to us about a project MoveableType has. Right now we don't have immediate plans for this though the subject has been discussed amongst us developers with no real decisive route planned. If you could research a few of the options out there for us and report back that would be a great first step. After you get ideas rounded up we can all comment on them and get started on a solution. Of course, I don't want to prevent progress either so if you just some hack out some sort of solution that's fine...just figured we'd do some due diligence before we commit too far toward one solution.

Comment spam is becoming a problem, it seems, and there have been quite a few disussions about it recently (there was a long thread in the forums, for example). A filter as you suggested was not among the suggested workarounds, and I don't think anyone is working on such a thing, so feel free to do it. A few extra measures have already been implemented in CVS and will be available in the next release: Tracking of IP addresses (which could then be banned, if necessary, with Tom Willet's ban plugin), notification emails on new comments, and a form so that users can report abusive comments. There will, of course, always be ways around these things (including your filter) and this will probably grow into an arms race like the one we're already in with email spam. But we're keeping an eye on it. bye, Dirk -- http://www.haun-online.de/ http://www.tinyweb.de/ From mail at zachofalltrades.net Tue May 25 18:05:15 2004 From: mail at zachofalltrades.net (Zach Shelton) Date: Tue, 25 May 2004 17:05:15 -0500 (CDT) Subject: [geeklog-users] Comment Spammers In-Reply-To: <1085508680.8444.3.camel@Prot> References: <40ADF80A.8080500@tonybibbs.com> <60585.12.148.198.43.1085180497.squirrel@12.148.198.43> <6B878DBA-AC79-11D8-97B2-000A95EBA3FA@thescian.com> <1085508680.8444.3.camel@Prot> Message-ID: <54002.12.148.198.43.1085522715.squirrel@12.148.198.43> just an idea: Does there exist a registry of porn site URLs similar to the ones maintained for spam blacklists?

Leveraging other anti-spam resources, you could parse URLs out of comments and check their domains against the SURBL (http://www.surbl.org/), taking care to scrape out hostnames and known rediriectors. The implementation guide at http://www.surbl.org/implementation.html has more specifics. Basically, if you find an URL like http://rd.yahoo.com/*http://www.something.hotbarnyardtonermortgage.ac.uk/enlargeyourxerox, you'll want to reduce that to hotbarnyardtonermortgage.ac.uk and do a DNS lookup for the A record of hotbarnyardtonermortgage.ac.uk.sc.surbl.org. If that comes back with 127.0.0.2, the comment is suspect. The SpamAssassin team has been working on supporting this for the upcoming 3.x release.

All you need to do is use COM_siteHeader() and COM_siteFooter() which are both in lib-common.php (hence the COM_ prefix). If you look at those functions and know a little about PHP you should be able to get it to work. --Tony Lucas Gonze wrote: >I'd like to integrate a wiki with my geeklog site.

No joy. Then, when I went to check permissions for Admin in the user admin section, I just get dumped back to the main user admin screen. Hmm. No errors in the error log, either. No errors on the screen. I'm running php 4.2.2. Do you know what modules I need compiled in?

This is very strange. I can login as admin or moderator, but can't make any changes of any kind. Trying to modify a user, it just returns to the user list screen (instead of the user modification screen). Try to moodify an article, it give an access error. Try to delete an article, it just returns to the article list screen. I can post and approve new articles, though. ??? -Stephen From e at marinx.com Wed May 26 19:37:44 2004 From: e at marinx.com (Ed) Date: Wed, 26 May 2004 16:37:44 -0700 Subject: [geeklog-users] MySql 4.1 No Install In-Reply-To: <65C0F192-AF5D-11D8-80D3-000A956D4D02@adamsemail.net> Message-ID: I guess you can't install a fresh install (Mysql DB) when running MySql 4.1 You get an "#1250 - Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client" So I'm just copying existing DBs and that seems to work ok for now. 4.1 supports temporary tables, queries within queries (with joins) and other nifty tidbits that are sort of necessary these days.

Does it affect a whole directory tree recursively? You may include some phpinfo() inside the php files to make sure what is the value of register at run time. On the client side, did you try with different browsers? Sorry i have more questions than answers, just trying to help.

Is it possible that the .htaccess value is reported but not honored (i.e. is this a bug/feature of PHP?). This will need to be looked into. Can you create a bug for this (even though I'm not convinced it is yet) and attached your php.ini and .htaccess to it? You can do so at http://project.geeklog.net. --Tony Stephen Adams wrote: > On May 27, 2004, at 07:52, Tony Bibbs wrote: > >> Maybe this was checked before in this thread and I missed it but it >> sounds like register_globals in php.ini is turned off.
