SCT (Trunk) requires media context processor

the trunk version of SCT now uses {{ MEDIA_URL }} when referring to static media files. this requires you to add 'django.core.context_processors.media' to your TEMPLATE_CONTEXT_PROCESSORS in your settings.py to keep SCT working (the tutorial and communitydraft's settings.py are updated)

So if you are using SCT it would be nice if you head over to the "Who's using SCT?" category to add your site.Hey, we have Signatures !!! Great, isn't it ?

trunk: Added caching to board

Because rendering of big threads got very very slow i added some caching - So when using the board you might want to consider configuring the CACHE_BACKEND setting of django. (See Djangos cache documentation).

As an example - the currently ... [More] longest thread on this site (31 posts - without paging) took about 2.2 seconds to render and 427 queries ! - Now it takes 12 queries and ~0.34 seconds (in debugging mode) - There is still room for improvement, but now it is acceptable Hey, we have Signatures !!!

SCT (trunk) - User Profiles

I've just committed another major feature: User Profiles. As the name suggests users can now modify their user profiles and view those of others. The fields (for IM, website URL, whatever) can be configured through the django admin ... [More] site.

This also makes it possible for users to change their passwords - So i finally added a Recover Password feature which generates a new random password and sends it with the username to the user's email address. Users can now also configure signatures for the board and if the 'Notify me on new posts' should be on or off by default. (So my last commit (Rev. 305) solves about 3 issues *yeah* )Hey, we have Signatures !!! Great, isn't it ? [Less]

Sphene Community Tools Version 0.2 Released !

Because of many feature improvements and bug fixes i decided to release the current trunk as SCT 0.2. This version adds support for PDF Generation of wiki snips, allowing anonymous edits of wiki snips using captchas, a redirect wiki-macro to create aliases for wiki snips, etc. See the Changelog for a more complete list, or download the release.

SCT (trunk) - default templateName for news macro changed

The news macro has changed from /wiki/news.html to sphene/sphboard/wikimacros/news.html and a default template is now included within the communitytools project.

Also: a new macro called newsrss which displays a URL to the rss feeds of the ... [More] news macro (ie. rss feed containing the latest threads of the given category) - see WikiDocumentation [Less]

SCT (trunk) - Read/New Post display is now associated with user instead of session

The check if new posts are available within a category/thread is now associated with a user, not a session.

This means that all sessions of a user have the same threads marked as read. -> a new entity was needed for this and ... [More] CategoryLastVisit was modified, so you need to run 'syncdb'. - There might be a problem the first time a user visits the board after you update. If this is the case you could either ignore it, or run the following command: UPDATE sphboard_categorylastvisit SET lastvisit = NOW(); to reset the 'new posts' of all users.

(Since this is quite an essential feature of a board.. i would welcome feedback if anyone encounters any problems when deploying this new version - thanks. - i of course tested it.. and it is also used on this website..) [Less]

SVN Trunk: Wiki snip -> PDF generation and Anonymous wiki edits with captchas

I have just committed two new features into the SCT trunk - First of all the PDF generation which converts wiki snips into PDF (See Wiki/PDFGeneration) - and the second adds captcha support to the wiki when an anonymous user wants to edit a snip (and ... [More] has the permission to do so).

PDF Downloads is enabled on this site for logged in users, and the Sandbox can now be edited by anonymous users. [Less]

SCT trunk vs. django trunk incompatibility

Last week there was an incompatible change in the django trunk changing clean_data to cleaned_data - i have fixed that now in the SCT trunk - so you should update your SCT and django checkout, otherwise most things will break (like posting new ... [More] threads).

See http://sct.sphene.net/board/thread/172/ (thanks to thalin for reporting the problem). [Less]
