StormChat Web 0.2.1, released on 6/2/2011
Changes include:
- Many fixes in the SMF FALs.
- Fixed up access to the admin console in the various FALs, in order to work on expanding the admin console (#3).
- Abstracted the showModeratorGroups function into the various FALs instead of trying to code support for multiple FALs into the room library.
- Add the ability to set debug level in the database, which will eventually be part of the admin console.
- Log backtraces with each log message, for fine-grained detail of what’s going on.
- Add filtering to the logging code, so you can tag log messages with a debug level (long overdue).
- Enable/disable plugins via the admin console (#3).
- Adjust timeout values via the admin console (#3).
- Adjust general settings via the admin console (#3).
- Modify/remove front page announcement value via the admin console (#3).
- Adjust cron settings (which will generate crontab syntax for the user to use) via the admin console (#3).
- Add link in the submit panel to the Admin Console if the user is a moderator.
- Add idle/limbo/warning code to the script-based session handler.
- Fixed (hopefully) the issue with ghosting sessions (#15).
- Disable timing out of moderators. That was annoying.
- Add a social network filter plugin for twitter:username and fb:username expansion. More to come, perhaps.
- Add a StormChat Bug filter plugin to expand bug:id to be a link to the issue tracker.
- Implement chat font face and size options directly (#26).
- Implement the ability to control the frame layout values. This allows people to do things like hide the avatar pane when they are using chat in the Firefox sidebar (#24).
You can check out the code via Subversion, or download one of the following files:
NOTE: Please note that when upgrading from 0.2.0 to 0.2.1, you must run update.php (go to http://yourserver.com/yourchat/update.php in your browser) to update your database schema to work properly with the code changes. Annoying things will happen if you do not!
