LnBlog 0.3.0 released

Well, I give up - I'm releasing version 0.3.0. I think I've worked all the bugs out of this release, but I guess only time will tell. You can get it here.

If you look back over the past several posts, you'll see there are several new features in this version. I've added real user accounts, a new theme, a mehtod to edit the sitemap that doesn't include changing templates, (largely untested) trackback support, and e-mail notification for comments. I even added documentation on all the new features.

Due to some of the changes, the upgrade procedure is a little different from the usual "upload and overwrite old files." Because of the addition of user accounts, the format of passwd.php has changed, which means that your usual login is no longer going to work. You should delete the passwd.php file in the root of you LnBlog installation and then go to the administration page so that LnBlog will prompt you to create a new login. In addition, you might want to delete or rename you old themes directory, as some of the files will be stale. A change to the templates means that it is no longer necessary to duplicate images and stylesheets between themes. If a theme needs a stylesheet, script, or image that does not exist under the theme directory, then it will use the one from the default theme. Thus you'll want to get rid of any unneeded files in the theme directories.

As usual, I welcome questions and comments. Have fun!
