uncommenting a line in index.tpl makes verification fail

I don't know if this is a bug or a feature or if I am just trying the wrong way. I use s9y 1.4.1 with bulletproof theme and wanted to add a favicon. in ./templates/bulletproof/index.tpl there are two lines saying:
Code: Select all
<!-- uncomment the line below if your site uses a favicon -->
<!-- <link rel="shortcut icon" href="{$serendipityBaseURL}favicon.ico" /> -->
So I put my favicon in the s9y folder and uncommented the <link ..../> line. The result was that verify installation integrity failed telling me that index.tpl was corrupt or modified. I checked if I had removed too much or touched anything else - no. Copied an original index.tpl from another installation over it -> verification was fine. Tried to install the favicon again -> verification failed. The installation runs smoothly otherwise, so I don't worry about the failure, I just wonder if this is a bug or a feature and how I am supposed to proceed to not alarm the integrity check.

The verification code detects that you modified bulletproof's index.tpl file, so it is no longer identical to when it was distributed with 1.4.1... you can ignore that warning since you know that it was YOU who made the modification, and not some malicious action.
If you do not want to receive that warning, remove this line from checksums.inc.php:
Code: Select all
'templates/bulletproof/index.tpl' => '42bf1fc6cdf47c233e34828d50d338b3',

Thanks a lot. I knew, I didn't need to worry, but I thought that, if I just ignore the warning, I won't be warned when there is really something wrong.

You're right; if you remove that line from checksums.php.inc, and something changes your index.tpl, you won't be warned. If another file is changed (which is much more likely), you will still be warned.
I've been considering adding a "bless my modifications" capability. I'm extremely busy right now, but I'll give it more consideration when I finally get some time.

That would be cool.

Hi Keeley!
Which changes did you make exactly? When you do many changes, it would be helpful if you create your own template, and that is not affected by checksums. Plus, it also saves you from accidentally overwriting your customizations when you update to a new s9y version.
