rslight 0.6.4 is now available.

This should be an easy upgrade from 0.6.3. The configuration files have not
changed, just overwrite the install other than config and it should be good to
go. Of course, if you've customised, make sure you copy over your changes.

The overboard is improved, and now also is available to display recent posts
for any single group. No more need for a separate groups file, it just uses the
main groups file now. The message snippet displayed for a post should be a
little better now also.

css has had a lot of changes. All is in one file now (style.css). All colours
are at the top, making it (relatively) easy to customise. rslight is now
somewhat responsive. It is useable on a tablet or phone. It can and will be
improved, but it is working reasonably well.

There is now the opportunity for users to change their passwords. It's not
beautiful, but it works.

Some bug fixes, and a problem with the directory 'common/' being assumed to be
at the web root has been fixed. 'common/' should be relative to 'rocksolid/',
but not necessarily at the root.

Download at Rocksolid Light by clicking on 'getrslight' in the upper right.

Working on 0.6.4a, which is running for the rocksolid groups on retrobbs and rslight.

The current work has been on more accurate quoting for replies so it doesn't look a mess like google groups quoting.  This broke attachment handling, but I think that is fixed now. If you notice an issue with either attachment handling or quoting on the rocksolid groups (not the other groups) feel free to let me know so it can be addressed.

As of now, 0.6.4a is mostly about code cleanup and php warning handling. Nothing major right now other than the quote handling.

Working on 0.6.4a and finally I think I have the url bar working properly.

Previously, it did not change when clicking links, so no easy way to copy a link. Now, it should change the url bar in the browser for thread and article links, and overboard. If you copy this link, and paste it into a browser, it should bring you to the place you're trying to get.

I've applied this to the rslight site so I can see if there are any issues.

url bar seems to be ok. I may work on the title being correct eventually :)

The most recent mod/fix is to the display of articles. The display includes a thread list, which is nice, but once you move to another page, you need to scroll down to the next message as the thread list is at top.

I've made a change so when clicking on another page, it will put the next article at the top (you can still scroll up to see the thread list if desired).

Also, added a page list/links at the bottom of each page, where you'd expect to find it. So far, this seems to be working ok.

Added a config option to disable threading when viewing articles. This also disables the view of the thread lists (subthreads).

This can make it much easier to just find the latest post(s) at the bottom of any thread, which is very familiar to those who use forums.

Currently testing this only on rslight, not retrobbs or elsewhere, until I can make sure it's working properly.

It's a simple config toggle in config.inc.php, so rslight can be used either way, depending on what the admin prefers.

Added the thread list back. It's hidden anyway (you need to scroll up to see it), and it's useful. If you're just reading posts, you never need to see it.

Having the posts ordered by date will probably be the default setting, which an admin can change easily.

So far, so good.

I've been working on trying to get date/time displayed in the viewer's timezone, but it looks like javascript is the only way to do that (by sending/getting a response from the client with info.

Since I'm trying to avoid javascript pulling client info as much as possible, I've opted for a different approach in the recent posts page.

Insted of showing the date in UTC (or whatever timezone by default), it now displays as this:

Posted: 1 Hours 6 Minutes ago by: "AnonUser" This may make it easier to determine how old a post is (mainly for recent posts), without trying to work out your offset.

I'll drop the 's' in a mod soon (so 1 Hours would be 1 Hour).

That's done. Also, removed any value of zero, so:

1 Day 22 Minutes ago instead of 1 Day 0 Hours 22 Minutes ago

Insted of showing the date in UTC (or whatever timezone by default), it now displays as this:

Lol, if it's less than one minute, it displays as:

Latest: ago

I'll fix that tomorrow :)

I think that's fixed now.

I've just moved all config, including group names, etc. to the config dir. Now an upgrade should be as simple as just overwriting everything in the web directory. It will pull all config based on the name of the directory, and overwrite nothing that is specific to the site.

Testing this now on rslight, so far so good.

Note: the changes listed in this thread apply to the next release (probably 0.6.5)

I've now merged spoolnews into rslight, so no need to run a separate instance. It will take the list from your groups.txt file (the groups you want to make available) and use that on first run. Also, overview does the same thing, so no need to create the config files for these features.

If you have a real spool on the same machine, spoolnews can be disabled in config.

So far this all seems to be working well, and is faster than the previous method.

Also, there is now no config info at all in the web accessible directory, including no need to point to your config (so if you run multiple instances like rslight.i2p does, it already will know where to find config data.

This way, you can just extract the entire install over a previous install and no issue of overwriting anything customised. Any config file changes (which are not in this directory) will me mention in release notes.

Also, there is now a 'mods' directory, where you can place your own header.php and style.css. If they exist, they are used. If they don't exist, the copies from install are used.

This seems to be working fine, and is faster than before.

While merging spoolnews into rslight, I've also made some changes that seriously reduce the need to connect to the news server. This has also made loading messages much faster. You probably can't notice the difference in i2p or tor, but on clearnet it's obvious. Timing the script to create the page shows about a 70% increase in speed.
Also, there is now no config info at all in the web accessible directory, including no need to point to your config (so if you run multiple instances like rslight.i2p does, it already will know where to find config data.

This seems fine, and I am updating rslight this way now. I just overwrite the entire directory and keep running. There is nothing to configure in the web accessible directory.
