0.9.4a Released

This release will probably be the last one before the next major version ,v1.0. It doesn't add much functionallity to the previous release, but rather ties up a few loose ends on 0.9.x

0.9.4a adds a feature whereby the user can specify whether to generate full or limited entries in the RSS feed. In addition, the spellchecker now ignores HTML tags.

Commenting and trackbacks with Haloscan

Want commenting and trackback capability for your Thingamablog powered blog? It's fast and easy with Haloscan. Just sign up for an account with Haloscan and follow the easy instructions for adding the code to your template.

For Thingamablog blogs, you'll use the <$EntryID$> tag in the Haloscan code. So the bit of code for commenting/trackbacks will look like this...

<a href="javascript:HaloScan('<$EntryID$>');" target="_self">
<script type="text/javascript">postCount('<$EntryID$>');</script></a> | <a href="javascript:HaloScanTB('<$EntryID$>');" target="_self"><script type="text/javascript">postCountTB('<$EntryID$>'); </script></a>

That's all there is to it.

0.9.4 Released

This release adds a Ping feature whereby users can notify services like weblogs.com that their blog has been updated via an Xml-Rpc ping.

Also, users can now post and publish blog entries with a single click from the EntryEditor dialog. This saves the user from having to click "Publish" after posting/updating entries.

Additionally, this release fixes a bug in the undo/redo implementation, and a bug that caused the program to crash when certain Blog tags were mismatched in the templates.
