vs.hive v1.1

Wednesday, 3:33 pm in CodeGirl

Well, five days later and we’ve already got v1.1 of vs.hive.  This was mostly a feature release, so we’ve got:

  • Optional CAPTCHA integration.
  • Optional Akismet integration.
  • Manual banlists for emails addresses and URLs.
  • Manual blacklist for IP address that (neatly) denies access to the entire site.
  • Slightly enhanced security on include files (they now die() if anyone attempts to call them directly).
  • Built-in contact form.  Because apparently you need one on a fanlisting if you’re going to integrate a CAPTCHA… or something.
  • Country values are now checked against the array for validity (duh, Dee).
  • Slightly more extensive email mangling for the memberlist page.

All that for only 45KB (and one MySQL table)!

And, because it was easy, I’ve also written a conversion tool that will take a members.txt file from BellaBuffs and dump it into your vs.hive table.

… yup.

    The BellaBuffs member file format hasn’t changed since its creation, so if your converter works with 1s it’ll work with all of ‘em smile.png

    That’s what I figured, but thanks for the confirmation!

    Just a quick question: does BellaBuffs enforce unique email and URLs for members?

    It does for emails (or it should) but doesn’t for URLs.

    Dee, this is totally on a different tangent, but do you have any blog or news systems?
    And if you do, do you have any sort of integration tutorials for putting it onto a web site?
    Please and thanks,

    Yes, and none of them are public because I’m lazy.

    WordPress FTW.
