If this is so common that the s9y.org site made this change and others are asking, why not generalize it and make it configurable?

What is needed for minor upgrades such as going from 0.8.3 to 0.8.4?
I see the "Upgrading Serendipity" info and it only mentions the upgrade.sh

[Edit]
Just did an upgrade on my test setup. All I did was to copy over the new programs. Is that all that is needed?

I would like to get the right info ...

BTW, Serendipity 0.8.4 was just released, you should upgrade to that version, if you'Re about to upgrade right now.

What is the policy in upgrades?
It seems they are fairly frequent.

Although I only have 1 blog I am starting to setup I can only imagine what it will be for someone having to worry ...

Upon entering the first page there is an error in the apache log.

Absolutely that definitely helps.
One more change that would make it even better is to have the line needed to do a checkout from SVN.. it also would not hurt to have a few links to some of the existing SVN clients.. or to have a ...

Just a drop-in: We are using SF.Net for plugins because more people have SF.Net accounts for contributing code, and more people are familiar with CVS instead of SVN.

Ok.

Since we still need contributions, we try to make it as easy for the user as possible. Actually only "real" developers of the ...

We use that (int) casting to be absolutely sure that only integers get shown there.

Ok. Understand the idea.
Shouldn't this apply to the code only?
Don't quite understand why integer defaults were casted to integers.. that is within the database itself and, in my opinion, can not be affected by a ...

How is multi-DB handled?
I see that PostgreSQL has a number of issues.. starting with the way tables are defined.

Is there a DB layer?

I am no MySQL user, but I would be surprised if one had to cast a default in MysQL.

For example looking at one of the tables created by serendipity in my ...

Wouldn't a better name for this forum be "Development"?

Don't quite follow what you are trying to do.
The categories can be managed from the admin page.
You can add/edit/delete categories from there.

It's under
Entries
Categories

As far as I can see if a category exists it will be showwn. If you are trying to make it so only some categories show, I ...

I only put comments in areas where something non-standard or obscure is going on, but think everything else as understandable.

Where should one provide feedback on code style?
The forum or the list?

Does it make a difference if the comment is on a plugin?

Have been spending time with the code of the static page plugin. Saw some code which I think should be different. Also think that the type of change should be widespread ...

While trying to troubleshoot the patch I put
exit(print_r ("<br>$page<br>\n"));

Inside the if of

It doesn't seem like it was executed.

I then change the code to

function &fetchStaticPage($id) {

While trying to troubleshoot the PostgreSQL issue for static page I had the PostgreSQL log and the php log open.
