WP 2.7 test phase: New Subscription Rules/Nuevas Reglas de Subscripción

Yes, what you always wanted:

During the WordPress 2.7 beta test phase you will become a SuperEditor instantly upon subscribing:

This means that you will be able to commit any tomfoolery on this site (except touch the users, their rights, etc.) *AS LONG AS YOU DOCUMENT IT* (!).

This being a test site we *want* people testing out stuff, themes, plugs etc. before they gotta hit their precious home pages/blogs seriously, but: We will monitor the site extensively (once the hour more or less), if you fool around without documentation on why and what you have done, YOU ARE OUT, seriously (we are aware we will get spammed, but those we will simply kill, incl. IP range).

We have sufficient layers of backups both of the database as well as of the setups to correct any error from your side (dont worry to accidentally destroy something, that is what makes this site interesting :-) ) during the test phase, but dont attempt malevolent attacks, they wont yield much.

Once the official release is out, all SuperEditor priveleges wil be reverted to Editor, when the next mayor revisio of WP is on the horizon this will automatically change back again.

Enjoy!

WordPress 2.7 beta 3: Test, 1, 2, 3…

Tests & Results (more added as we go):

- (as expected) lighter-admin-dropdown-menus wont work with WP 2.7 >> deactivated

- Simple Tags needs tweaking in order to work:

  • OPEN FILE simple-tags.php AND FIND LINE CONTAINING
    if ( strpos($wp_version, ‘2.5′) !== false || strpos($wp_version, ‘2.6′) !== false )
    {
  • REPLACE WITH THE LINE BELOW
    if ( strpos($wp_version, ‘2.5′) !== false || strpos($wp_version, ‘2.6′) !== false ||
    strpos($wp_version, ‘2.7′) !== false ) {

and all features will work in WP 2.7 (thanks to “lecactusov” who pointed to this tweak

- the “Unordered List” button does not work as it used to:

  • Randomly when clicking it twice (in visual mode) it EITHER cancels the list OR makes a nested list entry
  • Consequently, nested lists dont work in visual mode consistently

and you have to end the lists in “HTML” mode as you cannot predict how the button will react

- Nested Unordered Lists dont work in HTML mode either, if you enter the code and save the post, WP insists on changing the code to un-nest the list (which is why I write this entry in the artificial visually done nested list style)

Everything back to normal

We have finished maintenance and testing, everything is back to normal.

As you can see, the blog has changed its optics a little, with the “Collapsing Categories” in the left sidebar we have made some room.

Enjoy!

———————————————–

Hemos terminado el mantenimiento y las pruebas, todo ha vuelto a la normalidad.

Como puede ver, el blog ha cambiado su óptica un poco, con el “las categorías colapsadas” en la barra lateral izquierda hemos hecho un poco de sitio.

Disfruten!

Visits Counter

I have added a visits counter in the right sidebar. I guess this is a good way of inducing author depression… :-)

Traducion - Translation - Übersetzung

Con un clic sobre una de las banderas en el lateral derecho este blog será traducido al idioma seleccionado. Estaba probando con muchos reproductores traductor, éste hasta el momento es el que más me ha impresionado. Pruebenlo ahora.

El único problema: Sólo texto escrito en Inglés será traducido, pero como el blog mismo es en Inglés esto por lo menos debería ayudar a las personas para leer nuestros puestos. Para los autores: Si, por ejemplo, escribes en español, le recomiendo usar el traductor de la blogroll y después post multilingüe.

————————

With a click on one of the flags in the right sidebar this blog will be translated to the language you chose. I have been playing around with many translator widgets, this one so far is the one that has me most impressed. Try it!

The only problem: Only English text will be translated, but as the blog itself is in English this at least should help for people reading our posts. For the authors: If you, e.g. write in Spanish, I recommend you still use the translator from the blogroll and post multilingual.
