phpFan 3.1.1 Released

Friday, August 11th, 2006

This is mainly for those who are converting from Flinx. Or those who had a problem installing (for a few people with older mySQL installations would not work).

- Improved Flinx conversion. Now converts thirty images/links at a time instead of trying for all of them at once.
- Ability to turn off 'copying' of Flinx images to the image folder so they can be uploaded (toggle option).
- Ability to keep original Flinx image names (toggle option).
- Fixed bug with adding tables for certain mySQL installations.

phpFan 3.1

Tuesday, August 8th, 2006

I apologize for the last release. MDB2 wasn't the right choice for phpFan and this newest release has had a lot of work done on it to make it stable. phpFan now works without PEAR or MDB2, thus less files.

CHANGES FROM VERSION 3.03 to 3.1

- No more MDB2. No use of PEAR at all. Use of EZ SQL.
- Now can change categories around with counts staying accurate.
- Settings loaded into an array instead of called for individually by the server.
- Results of link checker put into an overview at the bottom of the page.
- Changed table to allow for 'Dead' links so that they are now highlighted on the 'Joined' page.
- Bugs with old MDB2 change fixed.
- When links are changed from image to plain links and back the image sizes won't be all changed unless previously blank.
- Editing categories will update link counts for more accuracy.
- Ability to view links by image size on 'Joined' page.
- Statistics updated after deletion of all links not in a category.
- Deleting a category now deletes links that are not listed in other categories and updates the link count in any parent categories.
- Ability to display links with errors the link checker has found on the 'Joined' page.
- Registration no longer requires activation through a link.
- Pagination so that the screen is no longer stretched or the links end up on two lines if more than a certain amount of pages.
