Chapter H: Changelog

0.03 (2001.09.26)

  • Added Bookmarklet posting functionality, with a link to setup on the main project administration menu.
  • In List Entries, if a post does not have a title display [No title] instead as a link.
  • Changed login cookie path from / to /path/to/mt/. For example, if you installed MT at /my/mt/mt.cgi, the path for the cookie would now be /my/mt/.
  • MT::Util::send_mt_mail now checks for more default locations of sendmail, instead of giving up, until it finds one that works. It now checks /usr/lib/sendmail, /usr/sbin/sendmail, and /usr/ucblib/sendmail (list taken from Mail::Mailer). (Steven Jarvis)
  • Added Javascript form validation for the edit blog configuration/create new blog form.
  • Added MTCommentAuthorLink tag, which links the comment author name using a succession of rules: looks first for URL, then for email address, then just displays the name without a link. (Steven Jarvis)
  • Deprecated MTCommentName in favor of MTCommentAuthor; removed the former from the documentation, although it still works (and likely always will).
  • Made uploading files compatible with versions of CGI.pm without CGI::upload method (versions prior to 2.47). Run CGI::upload in an eval, check for errors, and use CGI::param if we get errors. (Steven Jarvis)
  • Added a password recovery feature, linked from the login page. Also added a birthplace setting to the ``edit profile'' page; this must be filled out in order for an author to recover his/her password.
  • Added a config setting StaticWebPath to the mt.cfg config file. This allows you to host the MT images and stylesheets in a directory different than where you host your MT installation (CGI scripts, etc.). This is necessary on some servers, where you have to install MT into your cgi-bin, which doesn't accept non-CGI scripts in that directory. (Taegan D. Goddard)
  • Fixed display bug in blog editing menu where VIEW SITE would have space up above it, when a user does not have full permissions.
  • Don't include ``Send a notification'' section when editing an entry if the user does not have notification-sending permissions.
