There is a new version of my site code available for download. The new version labeled 2.6, includes several changes, enhancement, and fixes. The following is a list of changes.
- Implemented Lightbox feature in the Photo Albums
- Feature to turn Lightbox on/off in Site Settings
- Updated to latest version of FreeTextBox to fix issues in Firefox
- Added "Contact Me" page that allows users to send an email to the site administrator defined by the NotifyAccount appsetting in the web.config. Uses CAPTCHA.
- Change the Blog Entry to only be visible when the “Save and Publish” button is clicked. This means that the blogger can work on an entry and save it without making it public until it’s ready.
- Moved comments to be part of the blog entry. This means that search engines will now pick up the comments as well.
- Added CAPTCHA to the blog comments.
- Implemented Password reset
- Removed SMTP email settings from the Site Settings page. It now drives from the MailSettings section in the web.config. This was necessary in order to use the password reset control.
- You'll need to enter your email account information in the MailSettings section in order for any of the email features and notifications to work.
- Created database scripts to upgrade from 2.5 to 2.6.
- If you already have version 2.5 and want to upgrade to 2.6, you can run the script found in the Database Script folder, against your database.
- You would then need to copy the version 2.6 site over your existing site.
- Make sure you backup your database and site first. If you've made any changes to the site code or pages, this will overwrite those changes.
- Fixed serveral bugs and optimized some of the code.
