Download Simple PHP Blog 0.4.9

The name Simple PHP Blog leaves nothing to the imagination: this program is a weblog software written in PHP and only needs PHP 5 to run. Unlike other weblog applications, Simple PHP Blog does not require a separate database program to store various data. The data stored by the weblog is written by PHP into text files, which are also used to retrieve and change that data. Bill, the developer of Simple PHP Weblog, released a new version of his weblog last weekend released. As a result, the program has arrived at version number 0.4.9 and can be used via this page downloaded as a zip file. In the new 0.4.9 release, the following changes have been made:

0.4.9 has been released to Sourceforge. Before I get into what is different about the way we’ve released this version, here is the changelog for this release:

• Added: Blacklisted IPs – Ips that cannot create a comment for a blog entry – stored in config\blacklist.txt as a list delimited by line feeds.
• Added: Moderation screen – Can edit all blog moderation options from here… will be home to future moderation features.
• Added: ban ip button in comments listing when logged in – can add an IP directly to the listing from the comments view.
• Added: Hungarian Translation by Bubukák Team
• Updated: French Translation by Christian
• Added: Romanian Translation by Unknown Contributor
• Updated: Spanish Translation by Cristian Olate
• Updated: Italian translation by Lizza Marco (submitted by Drudo)
• Updated: Czech translation by josefwo
• Fix: XHTML validation errors fixed in various themes.
• Fix: Fixed category display issues (we need more info for this item).
• Updated: Danish translation by Jan Normann Nielsen
• Fixed: Hardcoded strings in archives.php
• Fixed: Removed accept charset from some forms
• Fixed: Validation errors in ‘Simple’ theme
• Added: Show subject line in page title if “permalink”
• Added: ‘Success’ messages to all CGI pages
• Fixed: Now you can delete all categories without validation error
• Added: Banned Words. This list, maintained in the Moderation config, will not allow entry of comments that contain these words in the url, name, email or comments.
• Added code to adding comments that closes the Anti spam hole that allowed for spam to be entered with a blank capcha/anti spam. The problem does not exist for the contact me page. Submitted by Jan Normann Nielsen
• Implemented fix by enix for date_format issue. On some servers (not all) if the config/date_format.txt file was missing, the blog entries would not show up.
• As reported by Jan Normann Nielson: If the comments were turned off, but the comment url was directly entered, the comments could still be entered. This has been fixed in this release. The url is still active, but no comments may be entered
• this was done so the more tag is not broken.
