BellaBook3.2 Released
There’s a new version of BellaBook available: BellaBook3.2. New features include:
- States whether email required, and whether or not it’s displayed
- Optional moderation feature
- Improved spam filtering
- Pagination as standard — in admin panel as well
- Entry management combined in admin panel
..as well as a couple of bug fixes that were reported to me. The Implementing Smilies tutorial has been updated to cater for both versions, and the Gravatar tutorial will follow shortly. There are no security updates to this version (because none are needed :p) so upgrading is not a necessity.
Edit: tutorialtastic now has a livejournal syndicated feed thingy. So, if you have a livejournal, add it to your friends list and you can keep up with tt.co.uk updates and new tutorials/etc. Thank you Katy! :)
Warning
This post is over 6 months old. This means that, despite my best intentions, it may no longer be accurate. Age, motherhood, experience, loss... these things have all changed me from when this blog was started back in the heady (ha) days of my youth.
As much as I would like to go back and edit 10 years of archives to provide an insight into the 'me' of now — to update coding snippets and revise website advice — it would probably take years to do so (by which point I'd have to start again!) This would defeat the point of keeping these archives anyway.
Please take these posts for what they are: a brief look into my past, my history, my journey.

Haha, I’m stalking your blog :P Fantastic, I’ll be using that sometime, when I can bother to get of my bum and do something with my site. Right now I’m too busy working on a blog for my cat. Teehee. Yes, I am mad. Well, have a nice weekend :)

Ah, a guest book script. xD How very useful, I may or may not use it. It all just depends for me whenever I think it is needed or not. x3 Congrats on fixing those bugs though.

Nice, I think BB is becoming more of an ‘advanced-advanced’ guestbook. :P

Quick question- does telpMail need to be modified at all for this version? I’m feeling lazy today and don’t particularly feel in the coding mood, so… :P

Phew… Finally got the new version implemented on both places I had 3.1. Took me… ooh, a little over 4 hours… Dammit, I always do this! Need to do work, not code. *Hangs head in shame*

Ooh nice features! Will surely give it a whirl as soon as I can. :D

Just thought I’d let you know.. I’m currently installing BellaBook and in the readme file it says to CHMOD “badwords.txt” to 666, when the file is named spamwords.txt. :)
