1. I'd like to use SVN to manage my local s9y installation files instead of downloading and extracting from a .tar.gz file. However, it seems that S9Y doesn't use SVN 'tags' any more ( http://svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/serendipity/tags/ ). Thus I would have to checkout either from trunk or branche...

A Chinese user emailed me just now saying that he couldn't installing S9Y under www root directory. I tested it on http://test2.dy (a virtual host on my box) and found everything looks fine, except that the URL will be redirected from http://test2.dy to http://test2.dy//serendipity_admin.php when in...

The Chinese language files used in S9Y v1.2 contain some problems. One problem is, one of the Chinese translators used his own website's link instead of S9Y's official link in at least one text. I'm working on the Chinese translation now, and will go through all the texts. For the main language file...

I use Site5.com to host my websites. My personal website was blocked several times by Site5.com (a webhosting provider) because of resource usage issues in last few months. Finally, I found that trackback spam costed lots of server resources (including database connection resources). So I added an A...

There are (at least) 2 different ways to provide sitemap to Google from s9y: * Use use the google sitemap serendipity plugin, as you said. And, this might be the best way, but there is one disadvantage: whatever you posted in s9y would be submitted to Google, even for those posts that you want to ke...

Hi,

I added my blog's RSS feeds as sitemaps to Google Sitemap. That's a warning message in Google Sitemap: http://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps

It would be nice if no any warning message shown up.

1. Sitemap warnings for http://www.deminy.net/index.rss2 Line: 15 Incorrect namespace Your Sitemap or Sitemap index file doesn't properly declare the namespace. 2. Schema validating with XSV 2.10-1 of 2005/04/22 13:10:49 (Target: http://www.deminy.net/index.rss2) http://www.w3.org/2001/03/webdata/xs...

This may not be a bug. Platform: Apache 1.3.37, PHP 4.4.4, MySQL 4.1.21, and S9y v1.2 beta 2. A web-crawler visited my website and generated lots of following warning messages in log file. PHP Warning: mktime() expects parameter 5 to be long, string given in /home/deminy/public_html/blog/index.php o...

I think there is a major bug in the latest version of serendipity_event_freetag v2.81.

Fatal error: Call to undefined method serendipity_plugin_freetag::makeURLTag() in /home/deminy/public_html/blog/plugins/serendipity_event_freetag/serendipity_event_freetag.php on line 446

Please open the following URL: /serendipity_admin.php? serendipity[adminModule]=groups& serendipity[adminAction]=edit& serendipity[group]= [ValidGroupID] You will find an option named " userlevel " shown above the "save" button. "userlevel" should be translated ...

The constant "PERMISSION_USERLEVEL" is missed in all lang files.

For more related infomation, check

1. table "groupconfig"

I am working on the latest Chinese translation, and got one question:

In file serendipity_lang_en.php, for the following constant:

@define('PLUGIN_AUTHORS_MINCOUNT', 'Show only authors with at least X articles');

what's the meaning of "X" here? Should it be '%d' or sth else?

I think there are several solutions for this problem, but none of them can completely solve the problem. 1. For multi-language support, officially use UTF-8 format only: All language packages should be written in UTF-8 format. As we can see, most PHP functions could handle UTF-8 strings correctly. P...

Hi, Garvin, Your suggestion is great. The following Smarty variable/modifier will print proper (Chinese) characters on the web page: {$CONST.TRACKBACK_SPECIFIC_ON_CLICK|@escape:"htmlall":"UTF-8"} But, in this template file (entries.tpl), since the "escape" Smarty modifi...

This bug exists for more than 1 year, and never get fixed. I didn't report this bug before because this bug exists in templates only, not in the main source code. Meanwhile, this bug exsits in many different themes, which might be a "huge" work for developers/contributors to fix it. In las...
